Crazy Rich Asian Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Have just completed my digital interview for the BME Master's program at Columbia University. Hit me up if you have any questions! ✌️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgaw10 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 So it looks like I should be expecting rejections from Northwestern and Utah anytime soon. Seriously, if anyone reading is iffy about Rice now or after the interview weekend, please, please, please reject the offer ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Rich Asian Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Just received another invite for a digital interview with Columbia, once again via RIVS.com ? Need to complete it until Feb 23 and I’m still on vacation abroad.... Is it normal to have multiple digital interviews with the university? Somehow I’m suspecting that this is a technical issue and that I need to answer the same set of questions again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling that they're holding onto applicants who checked the box if they are interested in being considered for master's, which I was not. But it also seems like their funding hasn't been as great this year because a few people in the results page said they would be granted admission IF they win NSF. Of course, it is highly competitive regardless of funding. But I think if you haven't heard anything yet, that could be a reason why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownEukaryote Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 (edited) Has anyone heard from Georgia Tech BME and Wisconsin Madison? Compared to last years it is rather strange that no one has yet been contacted. I see that UCSD, Duke, have given out some interviews, but just curious if they still send out acceptances. Carnegie Mellon was like we are working on it in an email last week, but apparently not yet! Edited February 25, 2019 by BrownEukaryote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also out of state which I think might make a difference for funding too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure if they are done sending invites but the visit weekend is March 7th - 9th (at least for me). I know they didn't send out all decisions at once because before I got mine, other students had received their acceptance letter. Hope this helps.

Teaching Faculty Wannabe Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I just wanted to say congrats to those who have received acceptances already! To those who haven't received one yet, I am still rooting for you! There is definitely time left to hear something back! Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bioengiNerd Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Hey, This might be a really dumb question, but does anyone know if Northeastern does lab rotations? I was accepted recently and the school matched me with a research mentor completely out of my area of study. I can't find anything on the website about rotations! thanks!

So apparently they are done sending accepts. (Just curious why there aren't many GT acceptances or rejects in the Results page though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtro37 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Got an email from a POI at a university I was accepted to (#3) basically saying to accept by March 8th but my offer letter says April 15th.

That’s a red flag for me, tbh. 3 hours ago, sgaw10 said: May I ask which school? sorry to hear that By the signature, TAMU? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
