astra Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Does anyone know what programs tend to send interview invites in early-mid January? The waiting game can be rough and I think it would be nice to have some information! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeuroscienceTheoretically Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 On 12/28/2022 at 1:24 AM, Diderot said: Question: do y'all select the full 7 profs for interview day or just the 2 or 3 profs you said you would like to work with in your application? I'm struggling to decide. Thanks! I mean, you should fill every spot if they're prioritized. Makes the admins job easier and you'll ensure you know who you're interviewing with. If you get paired with a rando prof, that's a wasted opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktneurobio Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Hi all looking for advice, At Scripps I only received an interview request for the Florida Campus, not the California one. Even after discussing only CA based PI's in my personal statement. I'm not sure how to handle this, I've accepted the interview in FL because I have only one other interview offer at this time. The site says the admission standards are the same, should I reach out to see why I only got the interview at the campus I'm not that interested in? Should I email some PIs in CA to express my interest in their labs now that I have an interview and hope that they get me that CA interview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neurobrainiac Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 I know I am waiting on Virginia Tech, Indiana University, Boston University (all Neuroscience) and then University of SC SOM (Biological Sciences PhD Program). These programs typically come out sometime in mid-january. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astra Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 By the way, does anyone know if Stanford is expected to send out interview invites this week or next week? I've heard that in previous years they sent out phone calls first? Neurolucida, lowestprime and nm_ml 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the Stanford biosciences PhD admissions FAQ: "During the week of January 9, 2023 (and the weeks that follow), the Home Programs will start to contact those applicants who have been selected for an interview. The selected applicants will be invited to interview virtually February 14-16, 2023. This will be our only interview session. Those admitted will be invited, at our expense, to an in-person visit March 16-19, 2023." I'm not sure about phone calls, but I wouldn't expect anything until next week  Good luck! nm_ml and astra 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astra Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) Also, in case anyone else was waiting on Columbia, it appears someone on Reddit contacted the administrator and was told all interview invites have been sent out. Update- the user on Reddit actually contacted the administrator about a different program (not the Neurobiology program), though I am not expecting much at this point anyway haha Edited January 5, 2023 by astra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be true if interviews are virtual. nm_ml 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
