By email, but it's not an official notification from committee, it's from the PI that I am interested in, seems they've already decided the 1st batch. sirt3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know if they send out all mails together, or have a separate date for international applicants My friend is an international applicant and she got her UCI invite email this morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixelanic Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Would it be frowned upon to email the adcoms and ask when they are expecting to send out interview invites/rejections? I'm getting a bit anxious since I'm traveling in a few days and won't be able to check email for a long period of time!

gre.egg Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I got an (informal) acceptance the the University of Nevada, Reno Neuroscience PhD program. I don't know why they made the offer so early. Has anyone else heard anything from UNR? I think I am an outlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaultiero Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 (edited) International, unofficially notified that i'm on the list for Skype interview for UT Austin Neuro.

International, male, Nanyang Technological University Bachelor of Computer science, GPA 4.67/5 GRE V163 Q170 W4.5 Two years PostBac in National University of Singapore, research on prefrontal function in primates via single units recording One 1st author under review (bioRxiv), one 2nd author Nature Communications, one 1st author conference paper (undergrad), and a few posters (SfN 2019 poster) To be honest I don't think my package strong enough for MIT (unless my 1st author paper is published, which is unlikely this year). But the PI in MIT seemed to have read my preprint on bioRxiv and commented on it (thanks internet and tweeter!), so he probably knows my work. I guess that's the main reason why I could get a chance without any network in MIT and being international.

I think your profile looks strong, and sometimes professors like students with a computer science background. Do you mind sharing what other programs you applied?
