ss2player Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Out of interest, did the GSBS pay for flights to and from Houston for interviewees or is it just food and accommodation covered? And if so, did they book flights themselves or reimburse you for your prepaid flights? They pay, and it's through a travel agency, you just have to call on their behalf.

micromajor2011 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 has anyone been accepted yet? Still haven't seen any good news from anyone yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaabbbccc88 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) I have a question. So I got a rejection meant for another student on 2/18/2014. When I brought it to their attention they apologized and told me my application was still under review. Isn't it a bit too late for them to still be reviewing my application? Also their last interview weekend according to gradcafe is March1st. Edited February 24, 2014 by aaabbbccc88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micromajor2011 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 It's actually March 7-9th, sorry I gave the wrong date last time. It's possible you still have a shot, they just had their second interview weekend and I still have heard nothing from admission about acceptances for the first weekend. Take into account that flights need to be booked a few weeks in advanced so it might be that it's a rejection or a delayed invite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micromajor2011 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Congrats! When was your interview weekend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanit100 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I went to the first interview weekend Feb 6-8. Did you heard something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micromajor2011 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I did also but no I've heard nothing since they sent the thank you for coming email. Which program did you interview for? I did immunology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanit100 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I did applied for human and molecular genetics. But since it is a gateway program I do not think that this really matters. They just called me an hour ago. Guess probably they started calling today and will continue tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micromajor2011 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Yep I'll post for sure either way it goes, hopefully it's good news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micromajor2011 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 (edited) Someone who had an interview at the last session told me they will send admins out to them in a week and if you haven't heard from them by then. You are likely wait listed, which is what I think I am right now. Don't see how you interview first round and get pushed to the wait list so easily. Annoying.

immuno41288 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Did anyone get accepted and they plan not to accept ? I really want to attend this school and I'm just hoping that there is still a chance for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quartzgirl Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Hi.. Those who got admitted into UT GSBS, Can you share your details (GPA, GRE, TOEFL, #Publications, etc....) It would be really useful for ppl like me who are new to such applications to compare and contrast our chances into the program.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Profile is as follows: Undergrad Institute: BMS College of Engineering, bangalore, India GPA: 8.4/10 (upto 6th semester).. will increase to atleast 8.7 in the next two semesters GRE 307 (V 152 Q155 AWA 4) TOEFL 107 I have worked on creating a targeted drug delivery system using DNA Origami for Prostate Cancer. We presented this in Biomod 2014, a biomolecular design competition organised by the Wyss Institute at Harvard University and we won silver award for our research. We have filed for a patent and our project is nearly complete. I am currently working on biomarker identification for different cancers.

Any chance I have a shot? I would be grateful if you guys can let me know what you'll think! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
