Hello,
I am an international student applying to Princeton for ED. On the 28th of November I was called for the alumni interview with the Consul General in our city. He told me that he had received a request from Princeton on the 26th to interview me, and send the report by the 29th.
Probably, there has been some filtering, for 4 students had applied to Princeton from our school, and 3 were called for the interview.
As far as I understand, the Early decisions are posted in the first week of December - how do the people at the admission office take the interview data into account in such a short time ?? (it's almost December now)

The alumni are probably swamped with interview requests at this time, and the universities are often not timely with handing out the ED applicant info. It's possible the applications will be reviewed without the interview. If you are borderline, I think they would put it aside and wait for the interview to come in and look at it again.
