<p>I haven’t been contacted yet for an interview, I live in Southern California should I be worried? </p>
<p>I checked online, how important is an interview, should i try to schedule one or is it to late?</p>
<p>Is the lack of an interview something Penn will see as my fault somehow even though nobody called me to schedule one? </p>
<p>Anyone else go through this? thanks.</p>
<p>yeh. i haven't had an interview either, and i'm not sure whether to worry about it... any ideas?</p>
<p>1) i believe march 1st was the last day to turn in interviews.</p>
<p>2) the interview isn't a big deal. penn won't hold it against you if somehow, an interview wasn't avalaible. i called their admissions office to ask, and they told me sometimes they just don't have enough people or enough time. of course, the day after i called, an alum called me. lol.</p>
<p>hope that clears things up.</p>
<p>better to have no interview at all than have a bad interview like mine :(</p>
<p>I got a call, just my interviewer and I coudln't get together and I still got in ED, so I wouldn't worry about it.</p>
<p>Yea it's kinda funny...I looked on their website for my county...it said "Inactive Committee." I just find it funny considering I live in Bucks County, PA, which is right above Philly...it's not like I live in Butte, Montana or anything...it's suburban Philadelphia...whatever; it's all good.</p>
<p>i just see it as bad news either way if you don't have an interview.
even though Upenn says that interview isn't required, etc. I feel that if they don't have an interview on record, they'll think that It's my fault somehow for not asking for one when I wasn't called in the first place. Now its March and I feel kind of stupid that I didn't call in February over the fact that no interviewer called me, should I even bother with calling Upenn up and asking them about the interview now or should i not worry?</p>
<p>forget about it...it really really doesn't matter. my interviewer said that even if they're deciding between two applicants with similar stats, having an interview will not give one an edge.</p>
<p>Imac, i didn't get an interview either, and I can pratically walk to Penn (sort of).</p>
<p>interviews suck.</p>
<p>Three people from my school applied ED, none of us were contacted for an interview... then at least 3 people from the RD applicants from my school got contacted for an interview. I really don't know what to think... but I guess it's too late now.</p>
