Is anyone interviewing for Northwestern DGP this Thursday and Friday? I haven't received my faculty list yet and I want to make sure I'm not the only one! ?

Nope. No hope on BU.

Expand  

I just received an email from BU and they said that all interviews have been sent out. They mentioned that my application is still of interest to them but, it depends on space availability. So please those of you who have been accepted, if you are not intending on attending BU let them know ASAP so that they can offer me and people in my position an offer as well. Thank you! 

[_epigeneticsstudent]

I got waitlisted as well from BU

[WAF1]

Got waitlisted by BU PiBS too… very interesting, I’m wondering if they sent out the waitlist email to all those who didn’t get invited for interview:(

Unfortunately, BU PiBS has historically been known to not sending out rejection emails. Instead, they send out waitlist emails and just leave applicants in limbo forever…Not a huge fan of this style.

I received an invite on Friday last week, but I am unsure if they will be sending out more invites. The interview dates provided were February 12-13 and February 26-27. Best of luck!

Does anyone know if UC Berkeley MCB is done sending out invites?

I’ve only heard of people getting unofficial email from PIs but I don’t think anyone’s been contacted by the admissions committee yet

I think they sent out all invites. An official email went out on Friday to sign up for interview days (Jan 31-Feb 1 or Feb 14-15).

I saw that Temple is still accepting applications, does anyone know of any other schools that are still accepting apps? 

Expand  

University of Nebraska Medical Center is still accepting apps until Feb 1st, i think. Their program coordinator is super helpful and offers appointments for questions via zoom. I applied there and am waiting to hear back. They do two rounds of interview invites - one after the Jan 1 deadline and one after the Feb 1st final deadline.

Hello, does anyone know if Weill Cornell and Columbia pharmacology have released interview invites yet?

Any updates there regarding Weill Cornell Pharmacology invites?

[m114rh.02]

Anyone know if Northwestern DGP is still sending interview invites? I know they start interviews this week so I think it might be a silent reject at this point. I emailed admissions last week and received no response.

I emailed JHU two days back asking about the status but got no reply. I saw in the results that they have started sending invites for BCMB Program. So hoping for some updates from CMM soon.

Hey, have they ever got back to you with a response?

I got an email today morning saying the applications are under review. Please check status in application status page. But it seems to be a generic email.

Hey! When did you apply? I applied on Jan 3 and they said my application is scheduled to be reviewed in the first week of Feb. Yes. The coordinator is very helpful!
