But you'll get an official email eventually but i heard that doesn't come until a couple of weeks. So basically, the waiting game is playing hard.

Oh i see! yeah pretty sure its 650. It seems like they send invite calls slowly.. so expect to keep hearing between today and next week. I am feeling that a round of invites will be going out this evening in probably about 1-2 hours! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GibonFrog Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 When do schools typically stop sending interview invites? Are we on the tail end of the process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really depends on the school. Some have not even sent out any invites yet. Also, schools might even reach out to you later if people cancel an interview last minute. I have heard crazy stories of people getting invited to interview super last minute and unexpectedly! GibonFrog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very nice to hear! You're gonna give me some false hope haha. I have gotten 3 interviews so far so I should be grateful, but honestly I am greedy for some of my reach schools to reply back. neuro7 and winstonian3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got interviews from schools I was sure would straight up reject me, so anything is possible. It's fine, I am sure everyone is feeling greedy too ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Edited January 8, 2022 by neuro7 uninvitedColumbus and GibonFrog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am also going crazy with anticipation! Ahhh thanks! I'm so glad to hear this but it's hard to know it can be any day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electrophys Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Hey! Does anybody know anything about the process for schools that don't have the rotation program? A PI from UCSB reached out to me and asked to set up a meeting with me next week. Is this the actual interview? Or is this just like a pre-interview? I'm not sure how it works for schools where you go directly into a lab (do the PIs have the final say?). Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
