Decided to attend Princeton Molecular Biology! While I am sure there are a bunch more qualified applicants in here than me I would be willing to share my stats/tips for anyone who will be reapplying/starting to think about applications for next year. If you think that would be helpful just DM me!

Reposting from Biology admissions forum. Accepted to Princeton molecular biology (based on results it seems they sent all acceptances and rejections today?). Also was rejected from Harvard BBS pretty much at the same time (knew it was coming). Very excited for Princeton will probably be attending (unless I potentially get into Stanford then idk). Incredibly fortunate to have these offers.

Congrats! Might be joining you ?

Accepted to Duke DSCB via email saying to check applicant portal

Accepted to UT Southwestern BBS yesterday via phone!!! Interviewed Feb 11-12th, they said it took an extra week to extend offers due to the Dallas weather.

Thank you! It is April 15th for both Emory and Weill Cornell. Glad to have the time to decide

Accepted to both Emory BCDB and Weill Cornell BCMB (Interview Jan21-22)

Accepted to St. Judes a few days ago. Feel free to ignore this, but a helpful tip a grad student during an interview session told me today was to write down pros and cons of each school right after the interview session to help make your decision later. Been on 5 interviews so far and after each one felt like I really liked the school and would attend. Just realized a letter of rec was never fully uploaded for harvard BBS just says "started" as the status so I think that was a waste of 120 bucks or whatever ?

Rejected from Yale MCGD yesterday. Kind of figured it was coming, but still a tad surprised because going into the applications I thought it was the program that fit me the best ? I guess sometimes that's how it goes, no complaints though. Congrats to all who got interviews!!

Yes it was an email from the admissions committee on dec 11th, but they explicitly said each committee for the home programs in bioscience operate on their own timeline so everyone will be different and I should expect the official notification from the biosciences admission office in jan

Thank you! The email said they received over 1,000 applicants this cycle... so it may just take time to get out to everyone. I am not an international applicant and did not have to submit a secondary application. I remember seeing someone post something that international applicants won't be contacted until mid jan? I may be wrong tho.

UT southwestern just sent me an invite over email, I applied very late~November 30th.

I am sorry but I do not know, I got a call from them this evening. I would assume sending offers until wendesday then a break till after the new year?

Literally hit post then got a call from them for an interview!
