I applied to Yale BBS (MMPP Track), Harvard BBS, Cornell (BMCB), Hopkins (BCMB) and it seems they will send interview invitations before Dec. 22nd previously. Has anyone who have heard back from these programs? The wait is so painful. I saw some Yale interview and rejection posts yesterday and some Harvard interview posts today but different tracks could send out invites at different times. Seems like no one has posted about hearing anything from Cornell yet (for every program) except for Weill Cornell programs. In past years invites for programs at the Ithaca campus seem to have gone out Dec 17ish-Dec 23ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tano7567 Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Hey everyone! Wishing you all the best of luck. So far I've gotten interview invitations from Duke MGM, UNC BBSP, UVA BIMS, and Tufts MM. Still waiting for Vandy IGP...I know they do review in batches but I'm still so nervous since some people have heard from them already! Checking on here all the time now to maybe not reduce my panic but at least know we're in it together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindyMermaid Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Does Harvard BBS send invites in waves or all at once? thekindflower and Mola mola 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yay!! :^) A PI I had emailed/talked to during the application process called then emailed me. Anyone else still (hopefully) waiting on Columbia CMBS?.. lol ? Good luck everyone!

WaywardVulcan Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 I applied to Harvard BBS and Chemical Biology but didn't get any emails yet. A little heartbroken now. I really thought I had a chance :( thekindflower 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know UT Southwestern does send invites at different times for domestic vs. international, but other schools don't do this. I got an interview for WashU at the same time as domestic applicants. I'm an international with a degree from the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantomhearts Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Hi everyone! I've heard from a lot of schools since I last posted, but I'm still waiting on Harvard, Purdue, and WashU. I applied to the closest molecular/cellular biology equivalent at basically everywhere. Still Waiting: Purdue, WashU, Harvard Interview: Upenn (12/15), Minnesota (12/16), Ohio State (12/16), University of Chicago (12/16), University of Michigan (12/17), Northwestern (12/17) Rejected: Wisconsin-Madison (12/15) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think for most applications in general there’s no mass email they send at once- it seems to range over a few hours if not days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QWERTYMNB97 Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 (edited) I E-mailed my prospective PI from a University to which I have applied, saying that I have applied and willing to work with her. She replied, "I would be delighted to explore the possibility of you joining the lab, It would be fantastic to have a new student. Pls let me know if you want to follow up at any point in your application process or if there is anything I could help with" What does she mean by this and how should I tell her politely to give me interview invite? ??

I'm not sure, but the email they sent wasn't personalized like most other invites so I think it might have been a mass email.

applicant321 Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 I heard from a Harvard PI that Harvard BBS is experiencing some delays and will continue to send out invites over the weekend, so don't panic if you haven't heard anything yet.

greymouse Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 @sarscov3 @chemicalbiology would y'all mind posting here when you get official follow-up emails from the berkeley MCB program admins, in addition to being contacted by your POIs? i imagine they're likely done calling since it's the weekend now, but there have only been a couple of results search posts about the program, so i'm not sure what to make of that.
