2017 Neuroscience PhD Applicants and Admission Results
Cervello replied to neuroundergrad's topic in Biology
Congrats! I was thinking they were done. You've given me some hope that I might yet hear from them. So far, I've gotten 6/9 interviews, but MIT is my top choice. I noticed that you've applied to both neuro and bioscience programs, like harvard's BBS. In retrospect, I wish I done the same since some of the labs at Harvard that I wanted are neuro labs but also available to BBS applicants. Given that this was such a competitive year for PiN, applying to BBS was probably a good way of getting a foot in the door even if it means not being a member of PiN.- 426 replies

Thanks! I was planning, and prefer, wearing chinos with a dress shirt and probably a sport jacket. Just wasn't sure if I needed to wear a tie. Now I have my answer. In the meantime, hoping to get a few more interviews.
-
Were you, by chance, interviewing for neuro programs? I know that guys wear suits for med school interviews but I had the impression that for neuro phd programs, a dress shirt and chinos with a sport jacket would be appropriate.
-
I'll be interviewing for neuroscience programs. Any idea of what's appropriate?
-
Will you wear a tie?
-
Suggestions for guys? I know suits are a no, but what about ties? A sports jacket? Chinos ok?

I'm waiting for Columbia, too, as well as MIT. Not sure if MIT is done sending out emails. They seem to be handling this cycle differently from previous, maybe because like Harvard they received a record number of applicants. In years past, they sent out emails over several days. Not sure if that will change this year.- 426 replies

Harvard's Program in Neuroscience, through the med school. http://dms.hms.harvard.edu/neuroscience/

I'd love to know what percent of Harvard PiN applicants got an interview this year and how many will be admitted. They supposedly got a record number of applicants.

^ that's seems likely. Got a JHU email today but for those who didn't, more emails may come later if last year is any indication. I know it's tough to wait. I think I've been rejected from one of my top choices because I haven't gotten an email and it seems likely that they were sent all in one day. Chins up.- 426 replies

Based on last year's results, NYU also sends out invites well into this week. So I guess we'll just wait for a bit.- 426 replies

I only see one MIT post on the results page. Am I missing some others, or did you see the one as well? I just checked out last year's interview dates on the results page and people got invites on Dec 15, 21, 27, 30 and on jan 11. Some were done through emails, others by phone. Seems like we've got time before assuming we're passed over.- 426 replies

Portland is a great town. Amazing bookstore, decent coffee, lots of microbreweries. Good hiking not far from town. Easy to get to Seattle and nat'l parks. Notwithstanding the recent unusual snow storm, fairly temperate weather. I vacationed there mainly to hike and drove up to Seattle through the national parks. Loved it.- 426 replies

It seems from the results page that MIT invites went out around this time during the last several years, but also that they went out over a few days rather than all on a day. Hoping to hear from them, too. And what he ^ said. This is a tough process. One of my top choices hasn't sent me an invite...gotta move on & hope for the best.- 426 replies
