I've applied to Vanderbilt, Duke, UNC, UTSW, BCM, WashU, UWash, UMass, URochester and UPenn. So far, heard back from Vanderbilt for an interview. Would you mind sharing when did you submit your application for Vandy? I also applied to IGP in BBS but no progress yet. Btw, when will be Vanderbilt interview weekend?
justwanttogosomewhere Posted December 16, 2020 Posted December 16, 2020 Thank you so much for creating an international student forum. I am an international student with US Masters degree. Received call from Rutgers (Molecular Biosciences) and Brandeis University (MCB- preinterview to know more about me for about 30 mins zoom call). Hope everyone gets into good schools. Anyone else interviewing for Rutgers?
Immuno_Emma Posted December 16, 2020 Posted December 16, 2020 Just received an invite from Emory Immunology and Microbial Pathogenesis (IMP)!! Anyone else heard back?
Prayforphd Posted December 16, 2020 Posted December 16, 2020 Thank you so much for starting this topic. I got the B.S from a university in US and I applied to 11 schools. Upenn( IGG), Yale ( BBS), USC ( PIBBS), BU ( biomedical science), UCONN( biomedical science), Rochester (immunology), Uwashington( immunology), UCD( immunology), Cornell( BMCB), NYU ( molecular oncology),Columbia ( biomedical) I am still waiting for the invitation of interview from any of those programs, and if anyone get the invitation someday before, please reply to me. BTW, Does anybody know if the admission offices in some programs will send out the invitation for domestic students firstly ( like separate from international students?) Will the invites be sent out at once or during multiple days. ( actually, I am super nervous right now).

And there are a few options,I think Jan 29th, and early February are left.
MolecularBioSteven Posted December 16, 2020 Posted December 16, 2020 Did anyone with the international background heard from Harvard BBS about the interview? I don't know whether we international students will receive the email later than the domestic students. Please reply if you have any information, thanks!

I honestly doubt many domestic students heard back.

pipettingerror Posted December 16, 2020 Posted December 16, 2020 I don't think anyone has heard from BBS. The post on the results page seem to be for some other program. From the dates on the page from the last few years it seems like Harvard sends domestic and international invitations around the same time. MolecularBioSteven 1
Debugging_Queen Posted December 16, 2020 Posted December 16, 2020 Thanks for this thread. Currently studying in the US. I applied to Loyola Uni (Immunology), Drexel (Pharm&Physio), Penn State (Immunology), Uni of Maryland (Immunology), Thomas Jefferson(Immunology), UPENN(IGG), Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health (MMI) and Mayo (Immunology). No invites yet but I haven't heard of invites for most of these schools from others except Penn. Has anyone heard anything?
chnsmggt Posted December 16, 2020 Posted December 16, 2020 Hello, thanks for the thread! I'm also an international student, currently an undergrad in the US (Ivy). I applied to Cornell (BBS), UPenn (CAMB), UCSF (Biomed sci), Mt Sinai (Biomed sci), Harvard (Virology), Yale (Microbio), Stanford (Microbio & Immuno) I have only heard back from UPenn on 12 Dec for an interview so far. Looking forward to good news for all of us!
pipettingerror Posted December 16, 2020 Posted December 16, 2020 Hi all, I am from South Asia with some research experience in the UK. I applied to Harvard BBS, UPenn BMB and Vanderbilt Biological Sciences. All are lofty reaches but if you never try you never know I guess. Hoping this week has good news in store for all of us so we can relax over Christmas! MolecularBioSteven 1

EpiPHD2021 Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 Thank you for this topic! I am an international student with US MPH degree and currently working at the WashU. Did anyone hear from WashU DBBS (HSG track)? The website writes HSG interview date is Jan 8th. My application status is currently under review. I got an interview offer from UFL (Epi program) yesterday.
