PhD Biomedical/Bioengineering/EE Fall 2016 Profiles
MEMP_student replied to Nallapar's topic in Engineering
@aegis921 @Extra Espresso I just got a call from Stanford guys!!!!! For those of you that were staring at your phone all day during class like I was, fear not! Calls are still incoming from Stanford! Also, if it helps, my application still says incomplete even though I sent them official transcripts twice. The interview does conflict with HST MEMP. The person I talked to said that it would be ideal for me to visit on the Monday-Tuesday of the week, so that I could go interview in Cambridge on Thursday-Friday. Hopefully everything will work out for all of us!!! -

Awesome news for you!! And thanks for that piece of information! -

So true! I have 3 other interviews to worry about, and if I was accepted to any of those programs I would be ecstatic. As it stands, this year the Stanford interview is the last week of February, which conflicts with my MIT interview. Even if I got an invite, I would have to Skype, and I feel like that diminishes one's chances a lot. -

Hmmm I did not. How do you know they sent invites? I would expect someone here on this thread to have said they got an invite if they had already been sent. -

Just got an interview invite from the University of Pennsylvania. This is so exciting!!!! -

Yes. I got my acceptance letter January 13th. Their admitted students day is February 18-19, and the RSVP already passed. I would contact them since it seemed like they were done with the admission process from their letter. -

I talked with two professors on Jan 14th and Jan 19th. It was honestly not really an interview; they talked to me about their research and why I would be a good fit. I received the official acceptance letter yesterday (Jan 20th). I am not sure if they have rolling admissions or not. I would email the professor that interviewed you and politely inquire about the state of your application if you are worried. Since they want us to RSVP for their admitted students day by Feb 3rd, I would expect most (if not all) acceptances to be out by that date. -

I got my official acceptance to UT Austin BME yesterday, but was aware I was going to be admitted for awhile. Two professors have been contacting me, so they basically told me I was going to be accepted. I am not sure if they have multiple waves of acceptances. Their recruitment weekend is March 2-4, and they want me to RSVP by February 3rd. I would expect them to have all acceptances out before the end of January, but that may or may not be the case. Check your UT admission page (https://utdirect.utexas.edu/apps/adm/mystatus/) to see if they have posted anything there. -

Go to "Account Settings" and then click the "Signature" tab. -

hahaha yup. I liked your signature format so I copied it! And thanks! Its a weight off my shoulders knowing that I have two acceptances. Now just to ace the MIT and JHU interviews. Best of luck to you as well! -

Same!! So excited! MEMP interview is apparently much more difficult than the JHU one (in terms of post-interview acceptance). -

I booked my ticket via the travel agent. In her email, she said she got most of her information (like departure and arrival) from Dr. Hong Lan (the administrative director). She booked my ticket for Feb 3-5, which was what I wanted. Just email her saying you need to book your flight from whichever airport is closest to you to Baltimore. She will do the rest on her end. It wouldn't hurt to list the dates you are interviewing just in case. -
Mine still says incomplete as well (and I did resend an official transcript in early January). Given the number of people who have this issue, it seems reasonable to assume they probably don't update that part of the application if you already submitted unofficial transcripts. I did call the office, and they said that interview invites would go out "late January." Also, the interview weekend will be February 25-26, which does conflict with MIT MEMP (Medical Engineering and Medical Physics). If I get interviews at both (which is a big if), I don't know what I'm going to do.

Guys, I am still so confused. I do not know where this link with the list of professors is!! The attached picture is the email that JHU sent me telling me I got an interview. I replied back both to this email and to Dr. Reza Shadmehr telling them I would go to the first interview weekend on February 4-5. They have not replied back, and there was not a link attached to this original email. Did you guys get a response email back with the list of professors, or was this link in the original email itself? Help!! -
Stanford Bioengineering: Transcript not received
MEMP_student replied to sanfonts's topic in Applications
According to other threads, Stanford releases interview invites by 1/21 (based on prior years). I guess we will find out within the week whether or not we still stand a shot! -

What is this preferences form? I just replied back to the email saying that I would make the first interview date. Will they send me a preference form? -

Perhaps you can tell us how important the interview is? As in, do you roughly know the post interview acceptance rate? -

Congratulations to everyone who got interviews at JHU. I received one as well. Potentially a very, very stupid question, but how do the travel arrangements work. Should I buy a plane ticket today, book hotels, etc. right now and then save all the receipts for reimbursements later? Or will JHU take care of things like the hotel on their end? -
Stanford Bioengineering: Transcript not received
MEMP_student replied to sanfonts's topic in Applications
Mine still says incomplete as well!!!! I sent transcripts way back in November. I resent an electronic transcript last week just in case, but who knows. They have an unofficial transcript so they can at least judge our applications. Hopefully this isn't held against us though.
