CancerBiology Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Any internationals invited to Yale BBS MMPP for an interview? I was just notified that I was not invited for an interview. Yale was my dream school so I am pretty disappointed. As an international I applied to 13 schools (all biomedical sciences or pharmacology, cancer bio when possible), and I have only heard back from 3 school for interviews. I am a little nervous and would like to have more options because as an international it is really hard to get accepted. UMich, Duke, Columbia (interviews) Weill Cornell (waitlisted for interview) Yale, Harvard, WashU, JHU (rejected) NYU Sackler, Stanford, Northwestern DGP, MIT, UPenn, UChicago (pending) Has any international applicant heard back from the schools that I have pending? Thank you very much. aarhar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CancerBiology Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 If anyone cannot/doesn't wanna go to Weill Cornell Pharmacology interview weekend please say so! I am on the waitlist and it is one of my top choices! They just sent me an update today mentioning that there has been no changes on my status. Thank you very much!

CarmenCarminis Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I still haven't heard back from UCSD BMS and Berkeley MCB, but I know other people have gotten invites. At this point, should I assume I've been rejected? Also, I've heard MIT bio is particularly difficult to get accepted to post-interviews compared to other schools. Does anyone know if this is true?

antanon82 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I applied to microbiology, MCB and Chemistry programs - UMASS Amherst. Has anyone heard back from any of these programs? I checked the results section and two people posted open house invites from MCB program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champion321 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Does anyone know the reputation of Irell And Manella Graduate School of Biological Sciences at The City of Hope? I applied here because there are some PI's and projects that are of interest to me. I can't find much about this program on google, and it's not on any ranking lists, but I know that City of Hope is one of the leading cancer centers in the nation. Any input is appreciated.

I still haven't heard from UCSD BMS either, but UCSC and UC Irvine already reached out so I'm hoping SD and Davis notify me soon. Either way, I really want to know so I can stop worrying and frantically checking my email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got an interview for UCSD BMS and they said they have multiple interview weekends with the 1st one being for the 1st round of selected applicants and so on. So they may still be picking people for the later weekends! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not get an invitation, so I contacted admissions and they told me that all the interviews had been sent. My 3 rejections are unofficial because I reached out to admissions via email.
