Hi, I am an international student. Undergrad in one of the UCs. 2 yr work/research experience in academia. Just thinking about sharing some programs I applied and the information I've gathered here.
- UCSC BMEB: Interview
- UCSF Biomedical Informatics: Rejected
- MIT CSB: Rejected
- MIT MEMP: Rejected
- UCLA Bioinformatics: Rejected
- Harvard BIG: basically rejected, someone emailed them, and they replied saying they sent out all interviews already (from gradcafe)
- Stanford Biomedical Informatics: no answer, but someone else heard back days ago (from gradcafe)
- USC QCB: no answer, but someone else heard back days ago (from gradcafe)
- UCSD CS: no answer, but someone else heard back days ago (from gradcafe)
- UCSD Bioinformatics: no answer, but someone else heard back days ago (from gradcafe)
- UC Berkeley Computational Biology: no answer
Yea at this point, I'm accepting the fact that UCSC is the one interview I'll get this admission round. Losing hope already, but glad I still have one interview lol. And congrats to those who got interviews from other programs I applied !!!!!!!

Did everyone hear from MIT CSB? I see some rejections & interviews in the results page but I didn't get anything
I think you still have hope if you haven't received the rejection email.

sadly I got rejected. Email:
Thank you for your application to the MIT Computational & Systems Biology Ph.D. Program. As a small interdepartmental program that admits 8-10 students a year, we have had a record number of 400 applications from highly qualified applicants this year like yourself. We regret that we are unable to offer you a place in our program at this time.

Hi guys.
Just heard from Bioinformatics@UCLA. Unfortunately they claimed they have sent all invitations, which I didn't get. They said I am put on the waiting list but I think it is a soft rejection since no official rejections have been heard from them according to my knowledge.
Hope the information helps and wish you a nice week to come.
I go this email:
Dear Applicant,
Thank you for applying to UCLA’s PhD Bioinformatics IDP Program.
At this time, all interview invitations have been sent out.
If you have not received one, then you have been placed on our waitlist until further notice.
If a future interview is given to you, then you will receive an email, otherwise a deny of admissions from UCLA Graduate Division.
Please keep an eye out on your email or continue to check your status on the UCLA Graduate Admissions Website.
Best to you,
Bioinformatics IDP Student Affairs Officer
It's the exact same generic email that I got 2 yrs ago (I applied 2 yrs ago and got rejected) bummer

Has anyone head back from UCSD or UCLA? I've come across some applicants who have already heard back from UCLA. A little anxious now, any information is appreciated ?
I think but am not sure that UCLA genetics track came out, but not yet for other tracks. I applied for bioinformatics as well at UCLA and UCSD and haven't heard back yet. Let's give it a bit more time! and wish you the best luck!!!

? my list is still dead silent since mid Dec. I've been very anxious since Dec last year. I guess I'm definitely out of luck on Stanford BMI. Also saw ppl got interviews from UCLA and UCSD before the break. I guess I'm running out of luck on those two too. But still glad that at least I got one interview.
Congrats everyone who got interviews from their dream programs!!!
However, those who's on the same boat with me, let's don't get our hopes down! There's still a whole month (or maybe more than that) to go!!!! Hope we all can get something in the next 30 days!!! ?

Hi all, international student here! I see two people have already gotten interview invites from Stanford BMI, but they are both Americans. Any internationals get any response?
I haven't received any notification from them yet, but my hope for Stanford is low lol super limited seats + we are international : /

I'm international at the US too, haha. I have received the same news from those two universities too!!! Guess I'll see you at UCSC. We also overlap on UCLA and UCSD
.
Regarding UCSF I think they're not taking international students and they're being filtered from the beginning, sad but that's our reality lol.
Good luck on the rest of your applications!
thanks! You going to UCSC interview in person? Yea Guess I'll see you there lol

Yea UCSD BISB interview is Jan 21. I heard they only have enough funding to support 2 internationals this year (not super sure about this but that's what I heard).
