Which of the two tracks did you apply to? 

The Neuroscience and Physiology track

[space8]

Any other news from UCI INP? I heard of the one person who got a call and acceptance, but otherwise the results page is empty. I had my interview over a month ago, and I want to decide where I'm going!

I emailed them on Monday and I was told they are in the first phase of reviewing and admitting and I will be hearing in the near future. 

 

So you aren't alone, I'm waiting also!

Hello! 

I got a phone call on the 16th and I was told I was accepted into the program. About two days later an official letter was posted on my application portal. I assume the first round of offers have gone out and there is a waitlist. Good Luck!

[NeuroKween]

Just got an offer from cold spring harbor labs!!

Quick question: how long  after the interview should I expect to get the results?

It definitely depends on the program, but a lot of them send results a week or two after the interview weekend ended.  Some wait until after all of the weekends have ended though before making decisions.

UC Berkeley WHNI acceptances started! I received an email earlier today about acceptance and it stated that more information about admission will come later.

I just got an email that I was waitlisted for NYU. Not super surprised since I have more of a developmental focus and they don't have a ton of developmental labs.

Does anyone know how a program makes their admission decision based on the interview performance? 

[neuro_gene]

I had an interview about 2wks ago with Scripps in FL. Has anyone heard back from it about the offer?
