I saw on the results page that some people have already heard back about interviews, and some have already been rejected. I have heard nothing (double-checked my spam folder), and just wondering if anyone else is still waiting to hear anything at all. Still waiting as well.

I asked them if they could offer me an alternative date or make it a zoom interview since it conflict with recruitment event of another institution. No reply to my email and no one is on the phone up to now.

Chickpeas_ Posted January 26, 2019 Posted January 26, 2019 Does anyone know if a lack of response from UCB at this point means soft rejection? I assume it does, but would like to be sure before I make a different commitment.

I was in the same boat - I had to schedule various flights, but was waiting to hear back from UC Berkeley's comp bio program since it would impact my flight plans. In the end, I just emailed Kate Chase (the admin), explained my situation, and she responded to let me know that I had been rejected. If you email her, you may get an answer!

Will do, thanks for the info.
ClayR Posted January 28, 2019 Author Posted January 28, 2019 Does anybody know if at this point no news = implicit rejection from Princeton QCB and Harvard SysBio? Trying to decide if I should try to leverage my Fulbright semi-finalist standing.... probably not the greatest strategy, but if I have nothing to lose, maybe it’s worth a shot. Advice appreciated.

I'm in the same boat with Princeton QCB. Seconded -- any insight would be much appreciated. ClayR 1
biobioplease Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 My personal opinion is that you should reach out to them with any updates. I think it's very likely that you won't be accepted if you haven't heard anything yet, but it's worth some kind of shot. I recently reached out to a handful of schools with a new publication, so I am following my own advice ClayR and Evo1ved_Entr0py 1 1
