drfigue Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 Remember to think of those who want you and consider you as an amazing scholar (which we all here are)! I just wanted to let you all know - we aren’t alone!!! vjysd and Teaching Faculty Wannabe 2
vjysd Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 (edited) Any word from UPenn's BioE? It's been a month since the first interview weekend (I know it's only been 4 days since their last weekend, but still..). I've only seen one post on the results page. Edited March 14, 2019 by vjysd

I got my offer last week from my most preferred POI. I think it depends on how fast your POI get through all the interviewees and make the decision.

One of my interviewers was recruiting at the three weekends, so I guess that may be a reason why I haven’t heard back yet. PS. Congrats! Edited March 14, 2019 by drfigue

If you check this website https://grenotrequired.com/stem/ you'll see that many engineering programs still require the GRE. Some require GRE programs and some don't. I think their are many options in both the cases.

Bloodies Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 I have not heard anything about Austin BME till now... I have been interviewed. May I infer that I may get a ...probably better result than rejection?
Victorious Secret Posted March 19, 2019 Author Posted March 19, 2019 Has anyone who interviewed with Stanford heard back yet? On my application portal, there is a request to do a CertiFile transcript for my home institution, but I don't know if they have done that for everyone.
wrf321 Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 Anyone else get accepted to UPenn (woo!), but still haven't heard about fellowships/advisors? Kinda freaking me out for some reason.

I got my official acceptance letter on March 15th (email to check status), which said I would get another notification from the department about advisors etc. I am pretty sure I'm going to be rotating between labs, maybe that's why it's taking longer?
drfigue Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 (edited) Congrats!!! I just know that there are two ways: either direct entry or possible rotation. When did you interview? For sure you shouldn’t be freaking out, I am ? Edit: and yeah, maybe that is why, since I’ve seen that people have posted that they’ve gotten matched with just one of their interviewers. Hopefully they have started the round of acceptances with people having more than one PI with you. Edited March 20, 2019 by drfigue
Victorious Secret Posted March 20, 2019 Author Posted March 20, 2019 I'm planning to accept my offer from Stanford. Thank you for sharing this journey with me and good luck with all of your interviews and decisions. You're all amazing! drfigue, PlethoraOfStuff, WaliaIbex and 2 others 3 2
sgaw10 Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Wooooooo got that rejection from Northwestern. But seriously, if anyone reading this who had an interview at Rice is unenthusiastic, please decline the offer ASAP and if anyone has any other related details, let me know!
