@diamedic17
I had it back in November...it was one of those recruitment weekends that they invited me to based on my GRE scores that doubled as an interview. They put on a pretty good show for you. The first night is a dinner with the faculty and then the next day is breakfast with grad students and then the interviews in the morning. Lunch is a recruitment presentation while you eat and then an afternoon poster session and 3rd year research talks. Dinner with grad students is a pretty good time, they took a few of us out afterwards to a local bar. The next morning is a campus tour. I really enjoyed it and was basically ready to sign a commitment to them but when I interviewed at Drexel I found that they have more of what I want. Still I'd go there in a heartbeat if Drexel rejects me (I'm waiting to hear from PSU as well tho).
I'm curious if they are going to wait until all of the interviews are over before offering anyone admission though.
Good luck and have fun!!

Thanks for the info.
I am curious if they talked about the stipend in the interview?
Their web site does not say anything about?

Biochem,
Did you interview at ASU. If so what was your impression. I have 1 interview and it is with the Bo-Design program end of Feb. They are affiliated with the Biochem departs. In fact if I read right, I can chose to rotate through the Chem and Biochem department labs......
Genesplicer,
No i did not interview,
they emailed me saying that i was accepted and inviting me to visit the school from march 7-10. I know in the previous post i put from march 8-9 but i just got another email that has the list of full schedule of the weekend.

Hi everybody,,
I am an Internationale student studying at San francisco state univ applying for Biochem Grad school programs in 2011 fall for 2012 fall... I was wondering if i could actually get some information about the schools around USA for PHD in Biochemistry
I have a low gpa which is 3.3. From San Francisco state univ. however, by 2011 fall i am going to have a year and a half research experience from UC Berkeley and a very strong letter of recommendation from a Famous Professor. I might even publish by the time i apply, but never know with the research, i still need some good data.
My second letter of recc is going to be from a professor that i volunteer for ( she is a chair for ACS American Chemical Society) and i have volunteered for many ACS events. I also took her Organic Chem II lab and i got a B+.(she told me herself that she is going to write me a letter of rec for grad schools)
My third letter of recc is going to be from my Biochem Professor who i got an A from his Biochem class. Since i am doing research in Berkeley he told me to take a class and make it also count at my transcript.
I have not taken any gre yet, i am taking it in the June, which i believe i will do good on quantitative part, but i am not sure about verbal.
i am at very good standing with my research and i can really explain it on my SOP...
my grades are getting higher each semester, but i dont think it is actually going to be much higher than 3.3 (3.31-3.32-3.33-3.34-3.35)
what i have heard from others that gpa and gre its a cut off point.. the letter of rec, research and sop is what really matters...
i will be thankful for each and every single advice.
