How much stipend are you offered for Chemistry Fall 2012?
twb replied to contretemps's topic in Chemistry Forum
Scripps-La Jolla $29000 (including health care) Yale: I think around $30500 Berkeley: $28500 Caltech: $28500 Stanford: don't know for sure but last year's was $32500 I think. -

I was asking tomyum where he/she goes to school, not Eigen.
-
May I ask what school you are at?
-
nope - no idea what's going on. if you search the results page, the last few things from MIT were rejections.
-
nope not there.
-
Still havent heard from MIT! Did the email direct you to check your application or did it just say rejected?
-
I know that one of their visiting weekends is in 2 weeks, so that doesn't give people very much time, but they have a later visiting weekend also so maybe people could still be accepted. You could try calling the graduate office. I'm in the same boat with MIT and it's frustrating!!!

thanks for letting me know. this is frustrating but i guess better than just being rejected. I wonder why they are taking longer than other peer institutions.
-
hmmm this seems strange because when I was offered an interview they said that the only dates that they are doing interviews in La Jolla are 2/24 and 3/2, and they wouldn't let me go a different weekend. So if they don't tell you until the end of Feb., then that gives you like no notice to go to one of the scheduled interviews. Maybe it's different for the florida campus? Anyone know what percentage of the people that they interview are accepted? Also, if anyone hears anything from MIT please provide an update!

Thanks - Lynn says "The admissions process is still ongoing. It may be another few weeks before all of the decisions are finalized." So i guess there's still hope for us...! haha i'm not sure that i'm going to all of them but maybe

I emailed Susan Brighton recently but she hasn't emailed me back.
-
Hey guys - i saw on the results forum that someone got into MIT today. can that person please tell me what type of chemistry they applied for?
-
yes, that's the only weekend, but the professor who called me made it sound like they are flexible and will help find you another date if you can't make that one (unlike some other schools....)
-
I would recommend emailing or calling the departments. Someone on this forum said that Harvard has already notified all of their accepted applicants, so that might be a rejection, but I don't know about the others. It seems that not that many people on this forum have heard back from Stanford so maybe they are still reading through applications.
