OncologyResearch Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Hi all! Is there anyone else that has applied for Biomedical Science/Biology/anything similar PhD courses for 2020 entry? I've applied to the following: NYU Sackler Institute (US) Johns Hopkins (US) ICR (UK) Imperial (UK) Where has everyone else applied?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samiraaaaf Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Hey! I applied to the biomedical science program for fall 2020 at NYU too. I also applied to UC Berkeley, UCSF, and Rice University (All in the US) I'm pretty nervous about my applications since my undergraduate GPA is pretty low, plus im international (From Canada), but hoping for the best!

Ah that's awesome! Great schools! I'm from the UK so I'm international for the US programs. I went to high school in the US though so I'm familiar with the country In terms of your GPA, try not to worry too much. I'm glad the admissions teams look at more than one aspect of our applications! Good luck! I'll do my best to update everyone on interviews (fingers crossed I get some!), etc. We got this!!!

I've applied to the schools mentioned in my original post (NYU, Johns Hopkins, ICR, and Imperial). I think I'll stick to these four for now, though I'm keeping my eyes open for other opportunities Hopefully I get some acceptances! Yes I moved back to the UK after high school to complete my undergrad, etc. Have you lived/studied in Canada your whole life? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
researchrocks Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 I applied to Johns Hopkins (CMM and BCMB) Cold Spring Harbor Gerstner Sloan Kettering NYU Sackler Georgetown (Tumor Bio -- where I am currently getting my MS) MIT Biology Harvard BBS Mayo Clinic (experimental therapeutics) St. Jude Duke (Cancer Bio) UPenn (CAMB) I'm crazy nervous and I am super worried about scheduling interviews if I am lucky enough to get some because I work 15 hrs a week and go to lab and class ? ? Anyone else apply to these programs? OncologyResearch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colors of Dinos Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Hi there! I applied to: UCSF CU Boulder CU Denver Mayo Clinic UT Austin UCSD Oregon Health & Science University UC Santa Cruz University of Washington, Seattle UC Berkeley UCSB Stanford I'm working right now (graduated this past May), so I had a lot of time on my hands to apply to grad programs, lmfao. Super nervous/excited to hear back. But I know with the number of competitive programs I'm applying to, I'll get a lot of rejections, so I should probably really appreciate the wait time where I can pretend I'll get in.

But cool! you picked some good schools, and im sure you will I did all of my schooling in Canada and then moved to the US during my senior year for a research opportunity. Have been working in that same lab as a tech for over a year now and feeling VERYY ready to be in school again. OncologyResearch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
