I am an international, so not yet for me.
A few domestic candidates have though
Has anyone in the Los Angeles City area received an interview invitation for regular decision?
Any internationals with an interview yet??
Oh also guys, my counselor submitted my mid year grades on 15th and Harvard updated my checklist on 15th too
Like is that good, my profile being under active review or something
Only happened with Harvard and Brown
Does Harvard offer AO interviews in RD?
Also, when should I stop expecting an interview?
It means they updated the checklist. Nothing else.
Can AOs interview in the RD round? Yes
They’ve interviewed into the beginning of March the last several cycles

I just got an email to schedule my interview.
What region are you?
Are you intl?
Any internationals (specifically from South Asia) with an interview yet?
Southeast - I don’t think it means much since they interview so many.
Does the time at which you receive an interview request correlate at all with the strength of your application? (I suspect not, but it’s another point of paranoia)
No.

DD received an interview invite 4 days ago. It seems that the interview offers, which were delayed due to the wildfire, are now being processed.
My son had a very positive Harvard interview with an ultra successful attorney/prosecutor, who spent 4 years undergraduate and 4 years law school. Every thing seemed good but his grades slides to all B+ first semester and 2nd semester, 2 AP classes went down to a B. Otherwise competitive EC like research for 3 years, excellent community service, and a couple of national academic awards.
Hi, we are in the East Coast, my son had his interview early January.
