收到Duke这样一封信，应该怎么解释？

背景是这样地，N天前受到Duke的信，说我的托福成绩如果2月8号前还没提交，就不考虑我R2的申请了；如果收到了，就安排我面试，11号通知。2月7号收到DUKE的申请状态更新，通知我说收到托福成绩了，但是没说面试的事情。11号发通知那天发给我这样一封信：

Thank you for your interest in Duke.  This email is to inform you that
your application is still being reviewed.  If you are invited to
interview with one of our alumni, I will send you an individual email by
the end of my day tomorrow, Tuesday, February 12.

If you do not receive an email invitation to interview, it means that we
were not able to accommodate your request.  lease know that as
interviews are not required for admission, your application is not
adversely affected by a lack of interview.  The information that we ask
of applicants in your application is sufficient for the admissions
committee to make a decision.  At this time, no decisions have been made
on any applications.

All decisions for round 2 applicants will be released on March 7, 2008,
and you can expect to receive your admission decision on that date.

Best regards,

Katie Madison

意思是：12号没收到信，就说明我们无法帮你安排面试，你就等3月7号的最后消息吧。

果然，12号没有信，面试就这样被取消了。请问应该怎么理解学校的这个安排？貌似还没有哪个学校没有面试就直接发offer的，难道取消面试就是变相的据信么？

谢谢解答！

不算据信吧，貌似找不到人面试而已哦。别担心，对自己要有信心！

今年的政策好象是有点奇怪的

根据往年经验，没面试就没机会了。

从这封信看来，duke没有给lz安排面试。虽说他家老是强调面试不是必须的，我个人觉着被录的希望很渺茫了。。
我也没受到面试邀请。心碎了。节哀吧。。
共勉。。。。

Popray,你要不打电话过去争取一下，给你补个phone interview什么的？

我没有面试，最后给了个waitlist，算是委婉的据了吧。没有面试真的希望不大。

争取一下吧，这个学校呀，唉。。。

照这么看来,可能是没有看ESSAY就发面试了.

我觉得是看了essay了，一般好像都会根据你的职业取向安排面试。赞成电话争取一下，如果你真的很想去
