Um. Accepted to Sanger Institute/Cambridge University 4-year program!
The problem is that I have to let them know by next monday. Their system isn't like the US. You don't get until april 15th... How do I decide?
Well, that is hard to decide. Do you have a ranking of the schools in your heart? What is the rank of Sanger? I have been to Sanger (EMBL-EBI). I do not know much about the research but physically stayed there for a week. The campus is far away from city and even countryside but very beautiful.

It was the only school I didn't contact professors before. It is within the cs dept and the cs programs generally don't have interviews so maybe that is why.
Got it. Thanks.

To the guys who got CMU offer: Did you contact professors there before? I am surprised that they did not have interviews.
-
Your guys are really excellent.
And BTW, anybody hear back from UCLA?

International school, apply for 15 schools. $1500-2000.

Very true. They are envolved with CAPRICORN, though, a cross-instituation research initiative for biomedical informatics and they are beefing up their computational chops are Northwestern.
Haha. I'm from Loyola University, on the north side. Where are you from?

I am a research assistant in UChicago now.
Congrats to you two. Top dream school. I applied to Chemical and system biology instead of BMI... I am afraid my Stanford is gone...

No instructions, sadly. They'll probably come out soon, as the interview is only a month away.
Another result to add - got an interview for Northwestern DGP - Biomedical Informatics focus.
Congratulation. I heard they only enroll 1-3 students in this program. After all this University does not really have many computational faculty- and most are bio-stat. But the location of Northwestern Medical School is great!
Seems you are in Chicago too. May I know which university you are?

That assumes a near 100% enrollment of accepted students. This cannot be the case, can it?@Lindsay1807's post above shows last year's numbers and before. The one missing number is how many interviewed. I expect not many more interviewed than were offered admission. They have to assume that at least some of the people they offer admission will take an offer from a different school even for top programs because those people are likely to get into other top programs.
Great thoughts. 70% is a high rate for the people who receive offer to accept it. In this case, it seems that the admission rate is quite high for the people who get the interview.

I heard from UCSF that they only give 2 international students interviews and enroll one. So I did not apply.

I haven't heard back from anyone this week - so a lot are =P.
Depends on the school! Cornell Tri's website states that they interview about 20 and accept about half (there were 13 students that entered in 2016). I think about 50% is normal-ish. Probably higher for a lot of schools.
Wow, 50% is not a good enough number. Seems to be a tough journey.
-
That is nice. I will visit UCSD 2.3. I am not familiar with these programs. Do your guys have ideas about the admission rate for the interviews? At least Cornell Tri-I seems invites a lot of people.
-
I applied to Computational Bio. too. Got UCSD, Cornell tri-i, Pitts-system biology, Caltech Biology (no feedback since on-line interview, seems failed). Hope to see your guys in Cornell.
-
Got the online interview too but did not get the on-campus. So as my friend. How about your guys?

My application journey ended today. Very likely will choose Tri-I. Thank you guys!
