ChickenFeet Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 Everyone is seeing that status. I feel like it's not a real wait list. Just means they are still making a decision
JeffSg Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 I am wondering if the interviewee represents the program or just their own lab because I was interviewed with the professor not listed as POI in my application.
Yyy0 Posted March 12, 2021 Author Posted March 12, 2021 I contacted the department. They told me that they already sent out the first round of offers, and I was added to their waitlist. I am not sure if it is the same situation for other applicants.

I guess that the interviewee represents the program since the first semester of this program will be the rotation time.
ChickenFeet Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 That's strange. I was told by the professor I interviewed with that decisions hadn't been made yet amd that there was no waitlist at this point

They will explicitly tell you where you are in the process.
ChickenFeet Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 Yeah I just emailed them to clarify that. Thanks!

ChickenFeet Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 Just now, Yyy0 said: I am international student. Yeah me too. Because UPitt is heavily funded by NLM grants, I think the first round of offers they sent was for domestic students. International students have to secure funding with a professor so it's a different offer process.

For schools that have rotation time, the first semester will be fully funded by the department not professor untill the rotation time ends, so I think there is no such kind of difference.

JeffSg Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 I was contacted today by my interviewer saying she is interested in offering me a graduate student researcher position in her lab. Does it potentially indicate an admission offer? I checked my portal it is still waitlist.
