It looks like the invites for the biology home program just went out. I haven't seen any posts specific to the Neuro home program go up in the results section so they may not have gone out yet. comp_neuro_guy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like people applying to biomedical informatics have also been contacted for interview. Maybe they are sending out invitations in alphabetical order of the program?

Could be later this evening, my phone call was at like 9pm EST. neuronerd95 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHML Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) Hey everyone. ? I applied for 10 neuroscience programs. I have a background outside of the biological sciences, but I have a year and a half of research experience (mostly outside of neuroscience). No publications, though I think I'm a good essay-writer and I had enthusiastic letters of recommendation. I just wanted to share, I have been: Offered an interview at: UCLA, UCI, UC Davis, Brown Not offered an interview at [waiting on official rejection]: U Washington, UC Berkeley Waiting to hear from: Stanford, McGill [Canada], Oxford (Wellcome Trust) [England], Max Planck School of Cognition [Germany] I found this thread as I was looking for information about Stanford admissions decisions. Stanford's website's FAQ originally said interview invitations will be sent out this week (the week of January 7th), but the website was subsequently changed to say "early- to mid-January". One can still find a cached version of the old website on Google to compare with the live website and verify this fact. Perhaps this implies that they are delayed in reviewing applications and some invitations will be extended next week. (That could explain why the website was changed to no longer promise an invitation be extended this week.) But that might also just be self-serving speculation to keep my hopes up! ? In any case, I look forward to meeting my potential cohorts at each of these universities! If anyone is curious, I can share which interview sessions I have selected for the programs which have offered me interviews.

neurogen Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) Just got an email about a rejection from U Penn CAMB, not sure if they sent out the neuro rejections already though. Was feeling somewhat sad about it as I only applied based on a PI there telling me to and that they wanted to recruit me to their lab at a conference/email, but seeing all the rejections on the results page made me feel a lot better in that we can all mope together.

Just had my U Penn neuro interview today and I’m pretty sure they’re done sending invites as well. They told us exactly how many students are attending the other interview weekend so sound like things are pretty set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(e.g if people in the first group were more of a priority). How many people were in both groups? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each group is ~25 people and neither has any priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maya123z Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 So do we think MIT is done now? No new invitations after the first wave 2 weeks ago... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ylyoo Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) I too am very curious about MIT. I have all but given up on it, and any news would be greatly appreciated. Based on a (very rough) count 14 invites were registered at the "first" wave this year on this website. and a total of 13 invites were registered last year. This seems like bad news.

Hmmm123 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 For anyone who was still curious about Stanford (like me), I just checked with a current student and they said the list has not been officially released but they think it will be this week. The school received a lot of qualified applicants so it took longer than they anticipated. Good of luck everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
