Yes I saw some people have got invitations in the past two days on the result search page.

Does anyone know/heard about any other programs that will be sending out invites before the holidays?

Looks like Harvard BIG usually sends stuff out before holidays. Not sure about others but that seems to be a program that most people on here applied to.

[Sky_china]

I know tri-insititute is supposed to sending out invites soon but the coordinator seems super busy 

[winterishere2020]

Last year Mount Sinai sent their invites out in mid-Dec and had their first round of interview in mid-Jan. However no one seemed to have heard anything from them yet.

didn't reach out to every program and every professor I am interesed, especially some big professor with tons of fundings and a really big lab. I don't really want to bother them until I got an invite or admitted maybe. But if I am really inte

Dang it seems like everyone got an interview at Princeton ?... Did you all have Master's degrees? I had 3 years of undergrad research and a 3.89...sad. Are all the interview emails out?

Edit: Also, anyone heard from Stanford BMI?

Edited December 23, 2020 by amory_blaine

I do have a master's degree. I am not sure if all the interview emails are out at this point for Princeton. Also for Stanford BMI, they said that they would start to contact people during the week of January 11th in an email they sent earlier.

I am not counting on Princeton to be honest... A little bit too reachy for me, my background and reserach interests is also not very aligned with what they have. They are also very basic science focused.... But I am still suprised how many people here got an invite. Congrats ! big accomplishment. 

I did see someone already posted they got invites from stanford BMI tho....

Same here, I wonder what they are looking for, so far got 6 interviews and 1 reject.

Hope you got interviews somewhere else ?‍?

[Sky_china]

POI just emailed me that Penn seems will not invite me for the interview as only 4 international student will be invited and the committee is leaning towards other applicant. Sad News...
