So NYU finished sending the first round of interviews. There might be a second round depending on the response of the first but that decision won't be until January Hope it helps and good luck!

winstonian3 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 UT Austin is confusing me. Apparently someone received a rejection email (and they had insane stats). And a few have reported interviews. Haven't heard anything myself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qq2 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Hi everyone, I'm from a math background so I'm not super familiar with the conventions in neuroscience admissions, I had a few questions I was hoping people here would be more knowledgeable on: 1) I've seen people posting "no interview = silent rejects" because they weren't in the first round of interviews, does it usually tend to work like that or does it vary by program/department? 2) I applied mostly to computational programs/tracks (typically housed within a neuro department), does anyone know if those work on the same timeline as straight up neuro programs? Like hearing about interviews in late December/early January-ish (which seems crazy early to me since most of my math apps aren't even due until mid-January lol). I don't know if I should be getting antsy about not hearing back from anything yet since it seems like most people are getting interviews left and right or if I should expect those work on quant program timelines. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only found out I got rejected by emailing the program coordinator directly. If you haven't yet heard from them, I think it's safe to assume rejection.

Thanks! Well here’s the thing, most information on this website is speculation. Take it with a grain of salt. Don’t keep your expectations high either as the stats of getting into any program is ridiculously low. For that program I got rejected to, only 11% got interviews and 3% got accepted. Unless a program directly states that invitations to interviews is officially over, I wouldn’t give up either. All in all, best thing to do would be probably only to use this website if you do get an interview so you can speak to people that are in a similar boat as you are. qq2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smous Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 6 minutes ago, TheNewScientist said: Hey, how was the interview like? Can you share with us? It was pretty chill. I got all 7 interviewers I had selected. There are different styles for each interview but bottom-line, be ready to talk about you've done in the past, know PIs' research before going in for the interview, some people ask technical questions especially if you're theory focused. Talking to the student hosts is the best way of getting to know the program and the culture in the cohort. First day at CNS; second day at the medical school. Intro to the program and each subdivision; poster sessions by students; presentation by PIs. It was like this before the pandemic, so I'm not sure how it'll look this year.

CMU neural computation FAQ page says the office is closed from dec. 22 - jan 2 and might delay processing, so I wouldn't expect to hear anything back for a while. I also did my undergrad at CMU and my PI there said the committee he is on for selecting interviews hasn't sent out any invitations yet (as of Monday).

NeuroRanger Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 I applied to Harvard, Princeton, Johns Hopkins, U of Washington, UNC, UVA, and UC Berkeley. I have not received any interview invites yet. I wish I applied to more schools. Has anyone heard from the University of Virginia yet? It sounds like invites went out for the rest already. ?
