University of Michigan - PIBS
University of Wisconsin-Madison - Microbiology
WashU - DBBS (Microbiology)
New York University - Sackler
UTSW - Basic Science (Microbiology)
UT Austin -Microbiology
Northwestern - DGP
I got interviews to UTSW and NYU. From what I have seen on the forums, half my schools have not sent out interviews yet so i'm still hopeful for maybe one more. Does anyone know if Michigan PIBS is still sending out invites? Judging by how they sent them out last year I am going to assume I have already been rejected, but it would be nice to know for sure.
