For people who didn't get into MIT today, first Im sorry but also you all have wonderful offers and are going to do amazing things! Second, I am kind of wondering if I just missed mine based on some of your stats so I wanted to know if you saw a change to your application portal. Like i said, I feel as though I just missed the email because I was already rejected from Stanford and Princeton! Im organic for reference.
I received an email from MIT. Maybe it’s good news if you didn’t receive an email!!

The rejections seem kinda sketchy. None of them have any grades, test scores or comments.
I was one of the rejects. Sorry for not adding any comments to my results post! This might be useful then: Applied to organic. Went to a top 10 liberal arts school. 3.99/4.00 GPA. Double major in chem and unrelated major. 2.5 ish years of chemical biology/ organic synthesis research. 1 pub. Lots of poster/oral presentations. Didn't take GREs.

Any organic chem people attending UChicago's virtual visit this weekend?

Thanks! I applied to Caltech, MIT, Yale, Rice, Stanford, UW-Madison, and Columbia.
I applied for most of these several weeks late as I had to deal with an unexpected visa issue and had to prioritize it over applications due to severity.
They allowed me to submit the applications but not sure about the impact of the delay.
Hi there! I applied to all of the same programs (organic) besides Rice. From following the results page, I think Caltech has finished their admissions process. I already heard back from Yale, Columbia, and UW-Madison. In the results section, a current Yale student said that the department will be sending a few more acceptances. I also saw on reddit that Columbia might be sending out a few more acceptances. I have no information on where UW-Madison is in their admissions process. I think Stanford has started to send some informal acceptances (based on the results page). No word from MIT.

Thanks a lot! I wonder whether unofficial offers were all sent currently?
Yeah the convo I had with this prof was kind of vague if I'm gonna be honest. I was invited to the open house, but could not attend. I had a zoom meeting with this prof to discuss research and stuff and he explained that my "informal" open house invite was not technically indicative of an acceptance. From my knowledge, I do not believe any offers have been made yet. I could be wrong though because idk what was said during the open house.

Has anyone heard from duke for ochem?
I talked to a prof a while back and he told me that official offers aren't being released until feb this year bc of delays due to the pandemic

Has anyone applied to UPenn (and not submitted GRE) and have their application status still show "materials needed"? I didn't submit GRE scores since they're optional this year, but the portal is still showing that the scores are needed. I emailed admissions at the beginning of January but got no response, and now I'm not sure if I should be worried that the app status was never updated to "ready for review" ?
Don't worry. I have the same status. I emailed admissions a while ago and they said it will show this message for anyone who didn't submit GRE scores.

Hi there! I believe I got the same email as you. As I understand it, it's just the typical package that most chem PhD programs provide that covers tuition + your stipend + health insurance. I think Columbia just has a fancy name for it lol.
