Got an email from NYU this morning with an interview invitation and a phone call/ email with an interview invitation from Yale INP yesterday! 

Congrats! Did you post the Yale INP invite to the results page last night? I’m trying to figure out if multiple people have been invited already.

Do you mean this sheet? I haven't updated it with my results, I don't have editing permissions.

No I meant the results page on gradcafe! Do you think they’re done sending out invites?

Yale was a phone call and email from a PI and then a mass email from an administrator. NYU was an email from one of the admissions co-chairs. Hope this helps!

Oh sorry, no I did not update on the gradcafe results page! I don't know if they are done or not, but the program administrator did send a mass email yesterday evening, which makes me think they might be done. Sorry! Good luck with the rest of your applications!

Thank you!! You too!

I have an “informal meeting” scheduled tomorrow morning with one person on Pitt’s admission committee. Seems kind of odd as I didn’t think Pitt did this prior to interview invites. Does anyone know what to expect?

FYI: the spreadsheet that is floating around contains misinformation. Columbia University did NOT send out invites.

I am anxiously waiting as well!!! I have a friend of a friend who knows someone on the committee… list is made but not released. 300 applications for 6 spots. god bless us.

 

They are doing a preliminary before interviews.

Aaah!! nerve wracking!! crossing our fingers for the both of us

Did anyone who applied to computation for MIT hear back (seems like someone on reddit did)? If so, was it an email from PI or official communication from department itself?

Expect a truly informal ~10-minute phone conversation. A professor from the committee called just to chat about why I'm interested in Pitt, said I'm a top applicant and would be invited for an interview, and that was all.

Good luck! Since they set up that meeting, I'll probably see you in Pittsburgh next month!

Anyone hear back from Tufts Neuroscience?

Oh cool!! So i guess I shouldn’t stress so much. Best of luck with the interview!

I received an invite from Vanderbilt on Tuesday, not sure if they're going to send out more or not?

Does anyone know if UW sends out secondary invites ever? I have heard nothing of rejection, but did not get the email last week either. Anyone hear from Duke Neurobiology or NIH GPP @ Brown yet?

[astra]

I was wondering if anyone has any idea if Columbia is done sending interview invites (or if they tend to send them out over multiple days?). I applied with an interest in the Human Behavioral and Systems Neuroscience track (not sure what tracks other people applied to) and haven't heard back. I'm thinking of just letting go of any possibility of hearing back at this point ?

I heard back from Brown NSGP but did not apply for the NIH. I'm also wondering about Duke Neurobiology!

I won't say that the sheet doesn't contain misinformation (its crowdsourced so literally no way of knowing)

But I will say that Columbia DID send out invites in fact. I got one earlier this week (neurobiology and behavior program)

[neuro1234567]

Did Hopkins send out interview invites already? 

[Neurosa]

Does anyone else still waiting to hear back from UCSD? I still haven’t received a rejection nor an interview invite but the spreadsheet says the department has finished notifying all applicants?

I haven’t. According to their admission page I think we can still hear back in Jan
