I applied through college or university. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at UCLA (Los Angeles, CA)
Interview
Statement of purpose, standardized exams, GRE, TOEFL scores, transcripts, strong academic profile, recommendation letters from faculty members, past research experience is a plus, no on-site or phone interviews, teaching experience is preferred for scientific positions. Definitely make sure to have open house campus visits and talk to the fellow graduate students to have a better idea on what to expect for the first few years

The interviewers were friendly and encouraging. I had fun talking about my past experiences and even got to share personal areas of my life. Overall, I didn't feel too nervous or cornered. I would definitely encourage you to come prepared though.
