Got it, best of luck! Let me know what they say if they respond. I just sent an email to Dr Mao (the graduate dean) as well, so I'll keep you posted!

Hi there! I got waitlisted by CMBS. They told me they wouldn't get back to me with waitlist updates until early April (so hopefully soon?).. Which program did you apply for? It might be useful to email the coordinator and ask about your status!

I feel this so hard tbh T.T I'm currently waitlisted at Columbia and Baylor, and both schools have told me that unless they see a record high of people not accepting their offers, it would be very unlikely that there'd be any movement for people on the waitlist.. On the one hand I wanna say don't lose hope, but on the other hand I'd say don't be toooo hopeful if that makes sense. In the end, it's probably (to an extent) more about the research you do and the people around you as opposed to the school you're at. Hope this helps a little, sending you good vibes :)) Fingers crossed that it all works out!

Hi guys, I'm thinking about committing to USC PIBBS! Feel free to hit me up if you might also be going! This cycle has definitely been tough for me, but I'm grateful to have a place to go to, hope things are working out for all of y'all too ❤️

I got an admissions phone call from them on 3/12 around 11am EST, they said that more info/ the official admission email would come out perhaps later this week. Idk if everyone has been receiving calls though. In any case, best of luck!

Hi there! don't know if anyone else has responded to u yet, but I interviewed for DDMT on Jan 22nd. There were information/ welcome presentations, 3 faculty interviews, and informal faculty meet-and-greets afterward. All the faculty were super nice and engaged, as was the program director. They will take around 50% of applicants post-interview (about 24/50), and ~11 students will accept the offer and matriculate into the program (+ 3 MD/PhD students and 1 deferred student) for a total class size of ~15. Hope this helps! Did u interview with them last week?
