<p>i thought i requested one by checking off the box, but uchicago said i never asked for an interview. </p>
<p>i can see what you’re saying; they might see it as not demonstrating interest because you didn’t go through with requesting an interview? i think at this point all you can really do is hope for the best, and with people applying to the same schools, chances are good that they’ll be able to use their waitlist.</p>
