I haven't heard back yet so don't think they interview everyone! Did you have previous contact with your selected supervisor? Or did you apply for UKRI funding?

I am an international applicant and have not yet received an interview invitation. According to the website, however, interviews are not normally held for this program. I contacted a professor before submitting my application, and agreed to be listed as my potential supervisor. Then, just last week, I received an invitation from my preferred college to submit an application for a scholarship.

May I ask which college?

No. It's a college scholarship.

They are processing the application early since the scholarship submission deadline precedes the Anthropology department’s decision timeline. This does not necessarily indicate that Anthropology has made me an offer.
