I emailed them and probably will go to see the academic advisor in person tomorrow...

I can tell from all his bragging about himself during the lecture that he has very high ego. He refused my proposal of adjustments quite arbitrarily and rudely, so I don't think talk to him again will make any differences. Also my research mentor is not in CS so he won't be very helpful. I have emailed both the academic advisors and the program directors, asking if I can take an equivalent course in my PhD institute and transfer the credits back...I have a BS in biochem anyway so even if I can't get this course to work, I still can go to grad school... Now I'm also worried that even if the lecturer eventually agrees to make adjustments because of the department's intervene, he could give very low scores on my writing assignments

Now I'm in a very negative situation: one of my required computer science course holds on the mandatorily lab on Friday. I need to go to the lab to pass, and the lecturer refused to make any adjustments to accommodate the interviews; rather, he told me to move the interviews to Monday, which is totally impossible. What can I do? Will writing to the undergraduate program director help? Thanks a lot!

I envy you Was told by the secretary during Sys Bio interview that the acceptance rate was ~60%
-
I take it as the rejection, given international students are not quite welcomed in that program

I emailed them because of the overlap with Gatech recruitment, and they sent me the invitation as reply

Me too. When I applied, I was told by a professor that this program is very unfriendly to international student and he suggested me not to apply for it but microbiology instead...

I think this makes more sense given so many people got the invites. And at least for Sys Bio, it has the similar acceptance rate: ~60%
