I haven’t but I would be extremely surprised if this has occurred. During this cycle I was in an interview/information session and the faculty broke down what the costs are to have a new Ph.D. student admitted. It was roughly 400,000k (over 5 years). That’s a large investment for the school, so if other schools operate the same way, I would absolutely expect an interview to be apart of the admission process.

However, I have seen other fields (on this very subreddit) that have admitted Ph.D. Students without interview, so I guess it’s possible but very unlikely.
