Hi everyone, I hope you're all happy and satisfied with your results and have decided which offers to accept I'm mostly between Cornell and UPenn at the moment but it's difficult to compare them. In terms of research group, location and weather, UPenn is my top choice. However, it seems that (at least in Europe where I'm coming from) UPenn is less recognised and I was wondering whether it's the same within the US too. Many thanks!

I had an offer from Cornell BME but I don't know about the rest. I wish you all the best!

Heya, you're right - initially they said the interviews would be virtual. However, they said yesterday that "due to Columbia University's updated COVID guidelines, we are excited to offer our interviewees an option to attend our Interview Weekend in-person" and candidates can choose whether to attend virtually or not. Did you get the initial email (sent on Jan 26th) to RSVP for the interview weekend?
