Someone applied for this program said he/she received an interview invitation yesterday, but I don't know whether it is real.

Thank you for the information! However, I have checked in this app and found nothing regarding interviews for next year's course. Could you please share the link? I appreciate it, thank you!

I just got an interview invite around 00:00 UK time lmao. Would've thought it was a scam except it cc's the admissions office and everything.

Wow thats something. No surprise there that academics are pulling an allnighter for interviews : ) Best of luck to you, who do you have it with?

Also, there was something about the upload button disappearing once someone views your application. Do you still have this in the self-service portal?

I think it will disappear only when you are about to receive an offer.

Thank you! The interviewers do computational biology and AI/ML respectively according to the Oxford website. I have zero experience in either of those so I'm a bit scared ;_;

Does anybody know how many applicants get their offers without interview? Oxford website tells about 1/3 applicants are interviewed, but there were some offers made without an interview in the last several years.

Does the interview for this course require access to a touchscreen device with a pen?

I've seen this listed as a requirement for undergraduate computer science interviews.

Reply 58

Any other updates about interview calls? Or anyone who has already done it?

I received an interview invitation just now. The interview will be done next week.
