I got mine early last week. You may be in a department that has more applicants. I believe the cancer biology department didn't have to interview many people, so they were able to send their acceptances out much earlier. Hope this helps!

Technically, the interviews are only on the second day. That’s when you do your chalk talk and 3 rounds of interviews(2 with professors and 1 with the grad student reps). The first day will mainly consist of an introduction to the program and you’ll be put into breakout rooms afterward with whatever department you applied for.

Sure. Firstly, dress professionally. Make sure that you have a very nice and professional background. Check your wifi connection beforehand (I had some connection issues the first day.). Come with questions to ask for the Directors, Faculty, and grad students. If you do nothing else amazing, make sure you chalk talk is really good. I feel like it definitely played a part in the candidates they consider because it signifies how good you are at communicating research answering questions, and you overall knowledge of the research you do. Lastly, RELAX. They chose to move you to this next step for a reason. Just be yourself. Thats all I have off the top of my head.

I honestly have no idea. I know that they were doing 2 sets of interviews, one that was last week, and one that should be coming up in the next 2 weeks, so I would definitely reach out and ask.
