Does anyone who got it could share the interview date? And will they send out more soon? I'm also curious about this. It looks like they usually send out all their invites within the same couple days, so I'm a little worried... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confirm, committee is meeting on the 22nd. Not sure when the actual invites will go out though. Just_Alice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neuromantic Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Emory is starting to send invites- saw it on the results page. What's with everyone receiving phone calls? My phone doesn't always have service since I'm often on the subway and/or in the lab. Yikes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone posted on the results board that they had 4 years of experience and 5 first author publications. Really makes you wonder... The program must have a really high bar for undergraduate GPA or something. I would love to be a fly on the wall when these decisions are being made.

Yeah...I am little disappointed but not too surprised since they said they recruited approximately one international applicant every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not really understand how people having 5 first-author publications (provided they are in normal journals) come not to have a PhD degree already?

Neuromantic Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Wisconsin-Mad is rejecting a lot of seemingly ideal candidates ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DdndCraft Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Agreed. My CV is comparable with the posts on the bulletin, so toss me into that mix. I was also in touch with multiple faculty who were enthusiastic about my application, so I'm a bit perplexed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neuromantic Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 That's awful, I'm sorry ? I don't know what's going on. It's so bizarre, especially since you spoke to multiple faculty. DdndCraft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j118 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Looks like Harvard just sent out invites. Not sure if they are all sent out at once in a mass email but I didn't get any :(. I guess I can assume I got rejected? I spoke to multiple faculty that were very impressed with my background and wanted me onboard though. One even scheduled a call to discuss what PhD projects he wanted me to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imnothere Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I’m starting to think that maybe applying to 8 reach schools was a bad idea ???. My gpa is ~3.5, I did two years of research in undergrad, and I’ve been a lab manager for two years at an R1. I have one poster presentation, one middle-author publication, strong LORs, and a decent SOP (I believe), so I’m thinking my gpa might be holding me back. I haven’t heard back at all yet, though and it’s driving me nuts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j118 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 All the people that got interviews are Americans. Anyone know if Harvard put international students in a separate pile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
