Just so everyone knows, I'm almost 100% sure that every school's admissions committee is biased and discriminatory. I have a medical disorder that is highly stigmatized in society, and even though I can do laboratory work perfectly fine (I've worked in many labs before), someone on an adcom whom i know very well told me that the school did not extend me an interview solely because of my condition. I don't want to disclose too much, but just a warning to people who will interview that if you have a medical condition (overt or covert) that is stigmatized, do your best to convince your interviewers that your condition will not interfere with your ability to perform lab work.
I'm extremely disappointed in the discriminatory nature of graduate schools' adcoms, but I just feel like I should let everyone know what happened to me so that you are all aware.

I just got an interview from Duke's Neurobiology program?? I don't know how; I thought they sent out all the invites already.

For those still waiting on UCLA, I have emailed the coordinator, and they have not sent out all the interview invitations. There is still hope!

Same. They should be sending out everything soon.

Haha yeah, I realized that as I was filling out the response card. Thanks, and maybe I'll see you at the interview events
Just so everyone knows: Weill Cornell Graduate School's dates are February 8-10 and January 18-20!
