it's feb 15 and still no news from any of the schools....i wonder if it's too late for any invites now.

same here. just got the rejection letter today. there goes my dream

@matt did upenn sent out a confirmation email saying that your application is completed (i.e. all supp documents have been received)? i only recall receiving an email soon after i've submitted the online application saying that there will be notification of results within 4-6 weeks. the status on the application page does say "Under Review" though....

Thanks mattchurgin for the info! 10 people get accepted a year...wow...that just killed pretty much what hopes I had left. I guess MEMP's just that tough huh.

unfortunately no....and i'm regretting it as of now. there goes my chances.

Just saw a few results posts with people getting interview invitations back on Jan 15th for UCSD Bioengineering PhD. Does anyone know if they only sent out the invites on Jan 15th or will there be more invites being sent out?? Sill haven't heard from them yet......

Should I explicitly say that I'm an applicant? Also, would it seem bad if I approach more than 1 prof in the same department?

Is it still a good idea to contact profs now? I have already submitted all my apps but haven't really talk to any profs. After reading a few threads on the forum, it seems that good impressions can be made and could affect the review process positively after corresponding with profs about their labs and projects. My only concern is that most schools should be starting their review cycles soon and it might make me seem really insincere now. Any advices?

Wow this site is really informative! Thanks!!

Hi Guys, I was just wondering if anyone has the stats on HST's MEMP program at MIT. For example, how many prospectives are interviewed and of those how many freshman are enrolled each year. And also of those how many are international. (I'm a Canadian btw). I'm really really interested in the program with its unique curriculum, but after browsing through the forum, I don't feel so confident at all. Would be nice if those that got in MEMP could provide their profile when they were applying. Any info's greatly appreciated! Thanks!
