She told me that they already have the lists of students- I think that they just need to send out the invites... Are you only referring to neuroscience?

Neuromantic Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I think so- but it was a combined application, so I think that she meant both BMS and Neuro. She said that it's a large group this year. czdarwin, ssrour98, VictorZ and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natural Killer Cell Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Hello everyone, Nice to meet you all! This forum has been great for tracking grad school interviews so just thought I should contribute. Here are the list of schools I have applied to and their current stats:Yale BBS- interview phone call received December 17th, interview dates: Feb 11-13 Columbia pathobiology and molecular medicine- interview received December 17th, interview dates: Feb 4-5 University of Chicago cancer bio-interview received December 14, interview dates: Jan 21-22 University of Pennsylvania CAMB- interview received December 12 (in spam), interview dates: Feb 18-20 UCLA molecular and medical pharmacology -interview received December 21, interview dates: Feb 8-12 Northwestern DGP- interview received December 21, interview dates: Jan 14-15, jan 28-29, feb 11-12 MSK GSK- interview received December 21, interview dates: Jan 12-14 UCSF- rejected December 17th (I grew up in the Bay Area so this one really hurt) Harvard BBS- seems like a no go UCSD BMS- haven't heard back either Weill Cornell BCMB- losing hope for this one as well NYU tumor immunology- probably not going to happen MIT biology Johns Hopkins CMM Brown Pathobiology Stanford Cancer Bio I hope we all hear back from some more programs soon. Wishing everyone the best of luck and congrats to everyone so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My invite had the heading "Confirmation for Northwestern Driskill Graduate Program Interview Weekend" and had my name at the start the email. I am not too familiar with how Northwestern is sending out invites, but it seems like some schools are releasing them in waves due to delays with COVID. I wouldn't lose hope yet, and I really hope you hear back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiz1810 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 0/6 2 rejections, had a dgp interview last cycle and was waitlisted apparently this year I am just not getting one. It has been a rough year and it is looking worse. Good luck to everyone but I don't think I can do this anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are the interview invites I've received so far: UPenn BMB, received December 13th Baylor CPSP, received December 16th Harvard BBS, received December 18th UMichigan PIBS (Pharmacology) , received December 19th Gerstner Sloan Kettering, received December 21st UTHealth/MD Anderson, received December 21st I'm still waiting to hear back from Rockefeller and University of Washington.

I'll email anyway! I applied to CAMB CMP and have not heard back yet. I had an informal meeting with one PI from the program but I feel like it didnt go as well as other meetings that I have had from other programs, not a bad meeting but not as upbeat.

I assumed NYU is a pretty popular program and if they had sent out all invites, more people would have been talking about it here. I submitted the applications to JHU right before the deadline so I don't expect to hear from them for a while. Good luck to both of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
