i can say for sure that all interviewees do not automatically get accepted (i was interviewed by OU and got rejected). i can also say for sure that you don't have to get interviewed to be accepted into a program, because i was accepted into a program that didn't feel the need to interview me.
it's impossible to predict what's going to happen. i wouldn't be too discouraged at this point, because if you are a very strong candidate who is next in line at a lot of schools, i think the chances are good that you could still be offered a position.
i don't see how it could hurt at this point to start emailing the PhD coordinators more samples of your writing, or other examples of work you've done that is finance-related (or related to whatever field in which you are applying). my thinking is that the more you can convince that person that you should be there, the better your chances are of getting in. i think the worst that could happen is they fail to respond (also happened to me). anyone else have any thoughts on this?
hope this helped somewhat... best wishes!
(btw, all this is experience is from finance phd application experiences.)
