Hi d3runner,
Thank you for the update on Rockefeller. I was looking at posts that were 2 plus years ago. I am sorry to see that they require an interview as well. That program is extremely competitive, so chances of my daughter getting an interview there is probably remote. But, with all of the interview offers she has received in the last 2+ weeks, she will already be flying to interviews every weekend from mid-January to early March, as well as a mid week interview that coincides with her first week of school for the semester (and that is assuming that 3+ interview requests are turned-down and/or not viable because the schools cannot resolve scheduling conflicts.

I think I liked it much better in the old days when one did not have to interview for graduate programs, checking out schools via the Internet was not yet possible, and your first view of the school was when you showed up a few days before classes started to move in. The process was far less anxiety ridden.
