SalamNeuro Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 I am an international student with non-US degree. I applied to the following Neuroscience PhD programs: - Harvard PiN. - Yale INP. - UPenn NGG. - WashU in St. Louis. - Stanford. - UCSD. -UCSF. Unfortunately, I did not hear back from anyone of them. Most of those programs have sent invitations to domestic students, but I am not sure if international students will receive invitations later. I assume I got rejected.

PapaSeanL Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 International application with US undergrad. BS in aerospace engineering. 4 papers published (3th/4th author in three of them and 2nd in a biorxiv preprint that is under review at a IF ~25 journal). 1 summer intern at automobile company, manager wrote me a strong letter. (I the time I thought I would be a car engineering). 13 months of undergrad research (30 hr a week average and full time in one summer). Apparently very strong rec from PI. Three papers from this. 17 months full time research after graduation at a Harvard lab. Inherited 1 project and was the experimental lead (2nd author preprint, and 1st author in prep). currently leading two projects (will be sole 1st author in one and co 1st author in the other). I'm applying to both engineering and biology/biophysics programs. Caltech BE (talked to an applied physics prof before applying but he is not on admission committee of BE) Stanford BE Harvard SSQBio/BBS/BE (No interview from BBS I guess that is a rejection) MIT BE/Biology/Media lab (got one interview from one of my POI at Media Lab) Princeton MAE (invited for short interview) Berkeley Biophysics (Talked to a prof on admission committee and he likes me, no interview) UChicago PME Yale BE CMU BME Gatech BE USC BME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MicroPhD2021 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Hi, guys! Hope you all get admitted from the graduate schools! I am an international student outside the USA and I applied to Yale(Microbiology), Columbia(Microbiology and Immunology), Rockefeller, JHU(BCMB), Cornell(Microbiology), Weill Cornell(Immunology and Microbial Pathogenesis), Upenn(CMB), UCSD(Biological Sciences), UC Berkeley(Infectious diseases),Scripps, UIUC(MCB-Microbiology), U-Wisconsin, Madison(Microbiology), and UTSW. Is there anyone who got an interview from those schools? I didn't get any response from those programs and it is a really hard time to wait for getting interviews...

FTJ27 Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 (edited) Hi all!! It's really great to find a pool for international students and specially on biomedical science PhD program. I am also an international student with non-USA degrees. I have applied in total 09 programs and till date received invitation from University of Maryland, MMI program. I would be glad to know if anyone received updates/ invitations for the programs mentioned below. 1. University of Washington (Pathobiology) 2. University of Texas Health and Science Center-San Antonio (BSP) 3. Case Western Reserve University (BSTP) 4. University of Georgia (Cellular Biology) 5. University of Utah (Molecular Biology) 6. Drexel University (Microbiology & Immunology) 7. University of Nebraska Medical Center (IGPBS) 8. Rutgers University (I3) Thank you all and I wish everyone gets into their dream school.

I also applied to UMaryland’s MMI program but no invite so far. When did you hear from them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
