CMU Interview Invites

EddyS · 1/10/15

Hello,

Has anyone received interview invites for CMU MSCF yet?

Cheers

tonylxy · 1/10/15

no not yet. Did you?
I applied for the 1st round but yet heard anything from CMU.

I applied for the 1st round too.. and I got a mail related to my application documents yesterday(not interview invitation), and it seems like they are still reviewing applications of 1st round applicants.

received invitation to interview today.

@tonylxy : as per the dates mentioned in your tracker, seems you submitted your application in 2nd deadline..So it is a bit surprising that you got invite before the first round applicants and that too before the 2nd deadline date..

tonylxy · 1/12/15

I believe I applied for the 1st round. I received an email in November from CMU that they decided to give me a extended deadline, and I applied right on that extended deadline.

Do you know if they send the invites in bulk or phases?
How did you come to know about number of people for the interview invite?

Does CMU send all the invitations for 1st round at a time?

Thanks! The interview was very casual with very typical questions. The whole interview took 18 minutes only.

Thanks @mhy , I'm really surprised it was all fit questions, especially for a competitive program like CMU. I heard at Berkeley you get grilled with Tech questions!

You'll have enough Tech questions for a LIFETIME once you join the program :D
