The website mentions that the interview determines one's prerequisite readiness and what pre-program courses one has to do. Apparently, it does not affect the admission decision. Is this, in reality, actually true? I am just curious.

I think interviews are more important in round 4 than in any other round since there is less time left for preparation for the course. They might be expecting round 4 applicants to be well versed in all prerequisites, so interviews are the opportunities for applicants to showcase their preparation. Though I'm not sure, just guessing.

Anyone heard back after Round 4 interviews?? I was interviewed on the 13th of October and still waiting to hear back from them.

Hi there! I just got my interview invitation yesterday and it is scheduled next week. So I think it will take some time for the results to come. Rest assured and wish us all the best!

@cooldude were you told in your interview specifically that you will hear from them again in a couple of weeks? ( I was told this and I took 'couple' quite literally)

As far as I remember my interviewer didn't mention anything about the expected time for result. But I think we might hear soon. Did you get the promotional email in Sept saying they will give the result in 4 to 6 weeks if you apply between 12th to 21st Sept.

Yep, I applied in that period. I got a promotional email today too to join the pre-program courses. But I am guessing they send that to all applicants eventually.

I got the email, but weirdly it was sent to my another email which is not the one I used for application... probably just an ad for all who have an account at UCB Extension. Purely guess though
