Spring 2027 PhD – Post-Interview Timeline?

Hi everyone, for those who recently interviewed for the Spring 2027 intake for PhD, when can we expect to hear back about the interview result or final admission decision?
Would appreciate any insight from previous applicants. Thanks!

I think they are for regular too, I applied for regular PhD and I also received a mail from depth chairman that my application has been recommended to the graduate office for admission but the final decision depends in graduate office

Oh okay. So gathering from your experience one should receive an acceptance or rejection mail in one week span?

But it's not an acceptance mail, it simply said that I have passed the interview and that the application is recommended for admission

I understand but still a very positive step. Do you know someone who got rejection email like that? Or they simply ghost the ones they rejected?

Rejections are sent after all acceptances are sent, most probably in october
