No call for interview yet?

Hi,
Just wondering if everyone has had their interviews yet. I have not received a call as of yet and am wondering if I should contact the Admissions Office to inquire. I applied RD and Yale is one of my top choices. I have already interviewed with Princeton, Penn, Cornell, Tufts, and Brown. Wondering why I haven't heard from Yale yet. I've double checked that they have all of my information, so it's not a case of an incomplete application. I only know of one person at my school that has interviewed with Yale thus far, and she sent her app. in early, though not EA (she just mailed all her apps with the early Nov deadline, as she was applying EA to another school, though got deferred to RD).

Any thoughts on why I have not been contacted? Should I be concerned?

Please read this this--it will answer your questions and make you feel better. (Another reason why AA's interview thread should be stickied!):

Thanks so much for the link to the Interview Advice thread. I spent some time going through it. Actually it didn't make me feel better, as I am in an area where interviews are available. The thread said that all applicants are offered interviews via email, etc. but either they got my email wrong or I just wasn't contacted. I did have a mix-up with Penn, who had my email address wrong, even though it is correct on the Common App. He thankfully made a follow-up phone call to ask if I had received his email. I promptly called him to tell him I had not. We set up an interview and met, and sure enough he had the wrong email for some reason. We've since been able to email without issue.

Thanks again for the link. Guess I'm still curious why no contact, and it seems moot now to pursue, given that they have a February 15 deadline for alumni interviews and I haven't heard from anyone at this point.

Thanks. It is hard not being disappointed, given my interest in Yale, and the other schools' interest in me. Guess it's all in their hands now. Hope your interview went well. Will be waiting and wondering here.
