The last interviews are scheduled for next Thursday, so they may be waiting to do most of their acceptances until after they talk to everyone. Good luck !

I have not been accepted nor rejected from UPenn so am assuming I am plan B! Not a great fit for me either.

RE: Columbia interivews Interviews are going on, mine is last week in March and I think I'm the last group. I couldn't make any of the dates due to other interviews, so they are kind of sqeezing me in.

Congrats and on to JHU!

Accepted MIT BE!

School Program Number interviewed Number expected to be accepted MIT BE PHD 36 34 Source: grad students at interviews. They only invite those they intend to accept. There are always one I two who eliminate themselves for various reasons.

Congrats on Stanford!

I was told that formal offers/rejects to interviewed candidates will come out mid March, but as AxyC says, you will have a pretty good idea if you have a shot at an offer after your inteviews. They are very collaborative in nature. For me, I only had three interviews and two were not a fit for my research, although they were excellent conversations. So I only have one option for a possible offer. Also, each person I met with told me how many people they had funding for 1,2, 4 etc... If their lab is not a fit for your research then you really do not want to go there anyway, so don't sweat it. The area was better than I expected and I really liked the people and the collaborative nature of the program. Good luck!

Same here

One down! Can't wait to get through my first one! I feel unprepared.

I'm interviewing at Penn and haven't received my faculty list yet.

Since this is my main question at this point, I thought it would be a good idea if everyone to add any information they obtain from the interviews for future interviewees. School Program number interviewed number accepted

Trying not to think about it until I get (hopefully) a few offers.

Wow that is so late, considering you have to reply to any other offers you have by 4/15... I like their program, but will definitely be making my decision before early April.

My assumption is that the Masters would not be funded, but I'm sure a Columbia will clarify that at the interview. Good luck!

Yup I'm American!

I'm taking the second weekend as I actually have nothing that weekend. Talk to Gtech, they may have an alternative, I did that with Rice and they were great about it. You MUST go to the JHU interview, no question.

Hopkins invite! Stunned!

Saw that, but it's weird because the website says we will be notified by Postal mail. I'm giving it some more time. Good luck!

Thanks! I'm going on Feb 20-22nd.

UPenn invite! On Friday I emailed the PI who seemed to indicate to me in January that I had an invite coming. There was some kind of paperwork problem and so today the official invite arrived. Very happy!

Same here, one was great about it and one was kinda weird about it.

That's what I figured too. Maybe tomorrow.

Will asking for an alternate interview date hurt my chances of acceptance? They all seem to be the same weekend!

It's the same weekend as MIT so I have to try to reschedule.
