I'm also waiting for any response from Berkeley neuroscience. Best wishes to all the applicants!

Any update from Berkeley neuroscience, Columbia Pharmacology or Boston pharmacology?

Does anyone know when the admission committee of Columbia/Berkeley neuroscience would meet ?

I contacted several programs. In fact, the Pitt CNUP program already sent invitations to domestic students today, but the staff said international invitations would be sent until mid-Jan. Some other programs, like BU and Columbia, should send their invitations at the same time.

As an international student, my question is would the invitation be sent at the same time as the domestic applicants? Any updates from the international applicants?

Any international students in gradcafe? Maybe we can share some information considering the difference in domestic and international admission process. I typed these words on my phone so I feel so sorry about any mistakes in spelling or layout.
