Did anyone else have four reviewers on theirs? I was awarded an honorable mention with: VG/VG VG/VG G/G VG/E.
They really liked my personal statement and research proposal except for the third reviewer who seemed to have a background in my research topic and was very nitpicky about it. They gave me a lot of good feedback for what to improve next year since I'm a senior now (mostly that I would benefit from having a publication and continuing my outreach in graduate school). They also gave a lot of nice comments about my ability to be a strong candidate for graduate school and a leader in STEM
so that was really nice!!

Were you being considered for an RA? My understanding is the acceptances for fellowships all went out by now, and RA acceptances depend on professors filling out paperwork. Email Hong, she was super helpful and seemed happy to alleviate any anxiety.
I received my refund, it arrived by mail.
Thank you! I was being considered for an RA. I emailed Hong so I'll wait for her to respond.
On another note, has anyone heard back from Penn after the interview?

So if I haven't heard back from Hopkins after the interview should I be concerned?

For those of you with Columbia invites, did they email you that they were reviewing your application before they sent you anything? I got a random email the other day from them saying mine is currently marked for review. Is that just to let me know they haven't forgotten me? Lol
I got that email the day after I submitted it, but maybe they're trying to let you know they didn't forget you haha.

i called columbia today and they said they're still in the process of sending out invites--it depends on which faculty are reviewing your app. also, they apparently haven't decided on an interview weekend date yet.
I am going to the Columbia interview on 2/17 but I'm not sure if they're having another interview weekend.

Did you get an email or a letter on the online portal?
I received an email from the graduate assistant. I was surprised to hear back so soon considering I submitted the application on the last day. But I met a bunch of the professors and students at a conference and my PI went to grad school with one of the professors I am interested in working with so I feel like that may have had something to do with it. I am unsure if they have sent out all their acceptances.

Also, anyone hear from Cornell yet?
I got accepted last Monday and invited to their visitation days in March.

I got an invite to the recruitment weekend at UCSD today. From the way I understood it, you have a pretty good chance of getting admitted after that so it's not really an interview. But they said to contact professors we are interested in working with.

Got my first interview invite to JHU this morning!! I'm so excited to meet some of you and my focus is medical imaging ?
-
So I saw some people got interview invites from UCSD and JHU today. Anyone here get one? And what's your intended specialization?
-
I don't think I'll get one either :-( but I just had a mini heart-attack because I received an email from them asking if I want to move my application over to the MEng or MTM program if I don't get invited to the PhD program.

Anyone else get a surge in anonymous LinkedIn profile views? My anxiety is going to be through the roof this entire month while we wait to hear back.

I still haven't heard back from two of the schools I interviewed at
I emailed them and they said they were still undecided about my application. Hopefully I'll hear back this week since I want to make a decision soon.
Have any of you decided where you're going :)?
