I'm wondering this too! It looks like the only invites that have been posted have been for IGP not NGP. I applied NGP...hoping that makes a difference for when the invites will be sent out? (For the record, I also applied to their Cog Neuro track under the Psych PhD (same PI), and I haven't heard of anyone hearing back about that program either - holding out hope for both lol) izthewhiz 1

neurobelle Posted December 23, 2020 Posted December 23, 2020 is it safe to say its a rejection if i haven't gotten any invite from UCSF?

Vanderbilt sent me an email yesterday with an invitation to interview. I'm not sure if they're done sending out invites, but the email was sent directly to me and had my name. Also, I applied directly to the NGP, so it could be different for IGP folks. phdhopeful96 and izthewhiz 1 1
pedrxre Posted December 23, 2020 Posted December 23, 2020 Just got an interview invite from Wake Forest NGP! Does anyone know if UW-Seattle is still sending out invites? They're one of my top schools. izthewhiz 1
MyBrainHurts Posted December 23, 2020 Posted December 23, 2020 Does anyone know if UMich is all done with interview invites?
Elephantonly Posted December 23, 2020 Posted December 23, 2020 Has anyone else gotten an interview from Yale? MoronPhDApplicant, whotfisSarahTonin, MyBrainHurts and 1 other 4
neurofidelity Posted December 23, 2020 Posted December 23, 2020 Has anyone who applied to the systems track at Columbia receive interview invitations?

So I received an interview invitation from Columbia, but I applied to the Animal Models of Nervous System Disorders specialization. I've got no idea if Columbia sends out interviews for different tracks at different times.

I've got no idea if Columbia sends out interviews for different tracks at different times. I think they are sending out invitations to the applicants altogether. The track/specialization is more for their own survey of the backgrounds and interests of applicants. I am an intl app and haven't heard anything yet, but according to the previous years, there might be slight hope that they will be sending out a more limited number of invitations before interview dates.
capa_detated Posted December 23, 2020 Posted December 23, 2020 for any fellow ucsf hold-outs, it looks like other ucsf programs have been sending out both interview invites and rejections already... does this give us hope or just mean the neuro program can't be bothered to send rejections yet?
kkrowling Posted December 23, 2020 Posted December 23, 2020 Hi, I received an email from Harvard on 12/18 saying : "We have received a letter of recommendation from [reccomender], which has been added to your application." But the recommender had already submitted the LOR back in November? Did anyone else receive this email/ know what this means? [For reference, I applied to the Neuroscience Ph.D. program] Thanks in advance!

I think Vandy NGP sends their invites on a rolling basis as well as IGP. https://www.thegradcafe.com/survey/index.php?q=Vanderbilt+neuroscience&t=a&o=&pp=25 izthewhiz and phdhopeful96 1 1
mak16 Posted December 24, 2020 Posted December 24, 2020 Has anyone applied to (and heard back from) Drexel University for their PhD program in Applied Cognitive and Brain Sciences (Psychology)?
Just_Alice Posted December 24, 2020 Posted December 24, 2020 Guys, do you know if universities stop sending invites from tomorrow and until January because of the holidays, so there is no reason to expect anything? capa_detated 1

I would have been relieved to even receive a rejection, so that I would just know that the option was gone and would focus on other opportunities

I am still trying to figure out my plans for that occasion idk about other people, but I'll just keep being a lab manager for another year and hope I can push out more pubs I guess. I was unlucky this year bc both of my conference presentations were full-on canceled. And i've only been doing full time research for two years, so I only have 1 pub.

I am also a lab manager and I see people in labs here who remain to be lab managers for so long... I do not want to be stuck like that. However, it seems like I will have to continue doing this as well... and I also have 1 pub and have not been doing research for too long. Anyway, cheers to lab managers in this thread!? Neuromantic 1
