Who’s still not received anything. It seems like most colleges have sent invited out but I applied to balliol and haven’t, anyone else?

I was under the impression that all invites had to be sent at least a week in advance before interviews start but as of tomorrow that deadline is crossed. Bruhhhhh

You were reallocated, which means you were a strong candidate but New college was just a bit oversubscribed for physics. Congrats!

Has anyone heard from Balliol yet?

I applied to balliol and haven’t heard anything. I am very confused because I got a follow up email from Jesus college about my interview but I didn’t get one initially. Is there a mistake?

Are you sure the initial one didn't go into a spam folder in error?
I'd call them just to ensure that their system is working and in case there was any important information on the initial email.

Seems really odd that no one has heard from Bailiol as well. Even if no one on this forum got an interview - unlikely! - they'd at least have heard.

Yeh I have emailed admission to ask about it. I wouldn’t stress too much about balliol because according to their website they haven’t sent out most of their invitations yet

Same, applied to Balliol and got a follow up email from St John’s with the link for an interview with them, but didn’t get an initial invite email. Very happy though.

same, applied to balliol and received an email from brasenose this afternoon about my second college interviews.
my guess is that balliol probably still hasn't gotten around to sending the emails but the second colleges are now notified by the department and are sending out invites.
I think it's likely that we weren't pooled as well because balliol is the only college that i'm aware of that hasn't sent out an invite.
I'm probably going to give it a couple more days before emailing balliol just to make sure of the schedule for the interviews.

Those who have been invited to interview, did you hear from another college about the 2nd college interview?

Does anyone know when these are sent out?

I have not yet.

heard about second interviews but not the first interviews yet...
the first line of the email is: "You should have now heard the good news from your “college 1” that you have been shortlisted for interview." so I'm assuming that they are my second interview college

I got the exact same message. My first was balliol and I’m pretty sure they haven’t sent invites out yet. Hopefully today
