Hey, everybody! I am an international applicant to MIT for fall 2017. I heard that interviews are selective in nature for Indians and that the tick against the tracking indicator for interviews disappears from the accounts for those being considered for admission. My tick hasn’t still gone. I had some issues with application materials not reaching MIT because they were mistakenly not placed on my file, which delayed the completion of my application. I contacted MIT Admissions to sort this issue and it was fixed very recently. However, since most of the interviews have already been offered and there’s no telling when and if I’ll get one I am too anxious about it. Is it true that applications aren’t read unless they are complete with all required materials on file? Is it possible that I’ll still get an interview? Please Help!

I think that alumni interviewers are supposed to submit the reports by the end of February. Considering that, for how long still would MIT be offering interviews to Indian applicants or those nationals for which MIT has a similar policy?
