N_m Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 TTPB: regarding JHU - I do not think that they sent all, since I got an acceptance today and it was a personal email (and not a mass email). It may depend on the POI I got into Columbia BME today but it is not mentioned in the letter to which lab I got accepted. Anyone knows how can I know?

asdfghjkl21 Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Asking on behalf of a friend: To the people accepted to Drexel’s biomedical PhD program, did you get an invitation to the biomed graduate open house on March 26? I got an invitation but my portal says I’m still under review, so I’m just wondering. I know admissions are rolling, but I’m trying to get an general timeline. Thanks!

yognautica Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Should I assume I'm on the waitlist for University of Minnesota...? I saw some acceptances and rejections have gone out, but I haven't heard a peep since my interview in mid-january, and the faculty member I interviewed with said they'd send out admissions letters by end of february...

Hisky Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 For people got in to JHU BME, did you receive an admitted students open house invitation already? ohboyherewegoagain 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilld97 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 waiting for JHU anxiously... I asked a POI, said that I am on the waitlist if I haven't heard anything from JHU. Was wondering what is the chance for waitlisted students to get an offer. offercome 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jemmasimms Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Has anyone who applied to Northwestern for a PhD in BME not heard back yet? I saw a bunch of rejections on the Results page that came through today, and because I didn't get an interview I assumed I'd get one as well, but instead I've just gotten radio silence from them. Anyone else in the same boat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else in the same boat? The rejection I got today from Northwestern was also an offer to be considered for the Master's program. It was a specialized email and my portal wasn't updated. I also applied last year and got the same result. Others who didn't got rejected a couple days later without the Master's program offer and their portal was updated. Not sure if it's the same as last year or not since the other rejections I see this year don't mention the Master's offer. Sorry I don't have better news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jemmasimms Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Ah that makes sense, thank you! I indicated in my application that I did not want to be considered for the MS program so I’m sure I’ll get my official rejection letter in a couple of days. Thank you for the update! And no need to apologize! I’m not too broken up about the rejection— I have several other PhD offers from top ten schools. I was just more looking for closure. Thanks again, and good luck with the rest of your process! gummybears 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zoees Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Day (what feels like) 800 of waiting. Still only had 2 interviews and zero other communication, despite emailing my top choice POI to follow up about a week ago. This is KILLING me catastrophe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoees Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 I just got recommended for MS at UCSD and waitlisted at UF within 3 minutes of each other, wow. Anyone know the likelihood of getting off the UF waitlist? Maaa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know the likelihood of getting off the UF waitlist? I'm not sure what the chances are of getting off a wait-list from a BME PhD Program in normal times, and how that might change at current times. Hopefully things will work out soon enough - one of my friends that was wait-list at a top 20 bioengineering program was told that he would be notified about final wait-list decisions by early April.

CornDaug Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 I basically was rejected by most of the programs I applied so far, but got accepted by WUSTL PhD so I am pretty satisfied with that. However, I am still waiting for Dartmouth College BME PhD Program and they did not reply to my email or sent any decision letter. I guess since they are not famous of their engineering department, I even could not find any updates on grad cafe. Has anyone who applied the same program heard from them yet?

Maybe we are waitlisted. I recommend reaching out to the faculty members you interviewed with/were interested in rotating with - mentioning your interest in Penn! If they've already made offers/don't respond, it probably also doesn't hurt to reach out to other faculty members you didn't get a chance to speak with! I just turned down my offer and most of the refusals are coming in now as well imo, but faculty can still fill out the form for interest in students so just make sure to remind them!

hashBrowns Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Is anybody else waiting to hear back from VT/WF Biomedical Engineering program? I attended WF's Virtual Grad recruitment weekend in Feb. and had pretty nice interviews with 3 professors. But I haven't heard back about any decision on my application. I contacted WF grad coordinator and was told that they will try to send all decisions by May 1st (waiting is stressful). Is anybody else in the same boat?
