Does anyone know how likely it is to be pulled from these back-up lists? Do they just have a pool of applicants in case someone cannot make the interview?
I have. Received a call from the director mid-December and an email the next day (interview). I'm not sure if they are sending them in separate batches though...
Their email on 12/19 made it seem like they would be through January: "Applications will remain under review through the months of December and January. Once all materials have been sorted, we will begin sending official interview invitations..." Hoping for the best.
I know the admissions committee met last week. Based off this year and previous years, top choices receive invites, bottom choices receive rejection emails?, and applicants in the middle are still in the running. I am not sure how this process works though exactly... hopefully we'll get some news soon.
Congrats! I chose group B for UCSD to leave the first half of the week open for BU (it says on BU’s website Feb 24-26). It would be cutting it close but I’m sure someone’s done it haha.
Hi all!
Figured I would join the madness as well. I applied to 7 schools: UCSD (neuro), UCSF (neuro), BU (neuro), MIT (bcs), Michigan (neuro), NYU Sackler (neuro/physio), and Columbia (neurobio).
Best of luck to everyone!
