I've been invited to Rutgers (going tomorrow), and Tufts (went two weeks ago). Two schools rejected me right away (UCSD and MIT). One seems like I might not want to go there because the research advisers that want me in their groups are not really something I'd want to do (UMass Dartmouth). The remaining four have told me ABSOLUTELY NOTHING (Johns Hopkins, U Penn, U Pitt, and U Delaware. I just saw a round of rejections and acceptances go through JHU on here, but I haven't gotten anything, so maybe, not holding out hope though. I heard a rumor that U Penn had an open house weekend already (I wasn't invited if they did). U Delware and U Pitt I guess are just waiting longer?
I just need one acceptance and I can breathe but this is maddening.
Tufts told me that they would let us know a couple days after the interveiw, definitely by the week after, but it is now 2 weeks after and as far as I've heard, no one knows anything. I'm starting to get really discouraged. All my professors encouraged me to apply to the best and have a few safer schools, but now I'm starting to think I wasted my time and money. It doesn't help that my undergrad was two BSs in Chemistry and Biology rather than Engineering or BME.
