Bioengineering/Biomedical Engineering Decisions Fall 2011

[sarbruis]

Anyone know if MIT and UW-Seattle are finished with invites? Seems like it.

[lucien2111]

Anyone heard back from UPenn? UT-Austin? Northwestern?

[bmealex]

I find that in your signature, you have been accepted by washington univertsity in St. Louis, do you get their admission?

I heard back from JHU at the beginning on the week, they're interview dates are Feb 24-25 or March 10-11. Good luck! Hopefully you'll hear from them soon...

[rsandler]

Which program did you apply for? PhD or MS?

PHD

Applied to 10 places

UCSD- rejected

USC accepted

UCLA - reccomended for acceptance 2 days ago

Columbia - interview

Waiting from: Caltech Penn, Brown, Stanford, Northwestern, JHopkins

Question: did anyone applying to columbia BME PhD get 100% \accepted, or did everyone get invited to visiting weekend interviews?

Thanks

[MrDerp]

UCSD - rejected

Stanford - rejected

Washington University in St. Louis - accepted

Duke - waiting

Berkeley - waiting

Columbia - I was told it was still being reviewed, decisions will be sent out mid-March

Boston University - waiting

If anyone has any additional information, please fill me in.

[theflash7269]

Any word from Carnegie Mellon?

[gatorgirl]

@theflash7269 I called Carnegie Mellon yesterday. They said that they have started sending out decisions. If you do not have a decision, then they have not yet reviewed your app. I asked if we would hear in the next couple weeks, and they responded, "possibly sooner."

For me, so far...

UPenn - rejected in early Feb

USF - Accepted in early Feb

BU - rejected Mid Feb

Cornell Accepted early March

Carnegie Mellon - Should hear soon

Vanderbilt, UAB, UVA, Purdue, UF - No idea when I will hear...

I have friends that have been accepted to Cornell, Rice, UT Austin, and Miami.

[theflash7269]

thanks for the into gatorgirl. I wonder if the same goes with the PhD applications....did they mention if decisions would email vs postal mail by any chance?

Applied to:

U of MD

Hopkins

Ga Tech

U of Mich

Rutgers

UVA

Purdue

Nat. U of Singapore

CMU

Heard Back from:

Michigan heard from in Dec/Jan and interviewed in Feb, heard from Hopkins in Feb going for interview next week, heard from Rutgers in Feb going for interview on the 18th, and heard from UVA in Feb and will interview on the 25th although that isn't a normally scheduled interview. The rest of the schools I have not heard back from nor have I received a rejection letter from. From what I heard at interviews, Ga Tech has given out some acceptances already. I made a mistake submitting my app with regards to providing proof of citizenship to Ga Tech which has delayed my app, so I think it cost me dearly.

.... give me my $125 back! the only place i've heard/been admitted to is vanderbilt (and a rejection from ucb). for people applying to UC davis, I, being the most impatient and anxious person, emailed ms. wintersmith about the invites. she says they only started sending them out/hanve't seen all apps so i guess there's still hope. good luck everyone!

So did you hear from UC Davis?

[gatorgirl]

@theflash7269 They said it applied for all of their BME degrees. Also, they said it would be an email, with postal to follow.

Good luck!

(At this point, I just keep checking the applyyourself website daily. lol)

Got the acceptance letter from Michigan today.

[engin33r]

Rejected from Cornell Phd. =(

but got into UofToronto =)

[rywillms]

so can we safely assume rejections from Columbia and UPenn since they seem to have had their interview weekends and already given acceptances?

[fibonacci]

Wow I never realized how vastly underrated Rutgers' BME program is. They are giving Michigan and Hopkins a run for their money since my primary goal is to go into industry. Rutgers is heavily focused on getting research done in the lab into actual products on the market. Holy crap I'm pretty nervous about meeting Dr. Kohn at the interviews tomorrow. He's a HUGE name and heads some of the Pentagon's research on regenerative medicine. Quite the impressive resume.

Anyone got response from Caltech bioengineering? - I emailed Linda last week she said no decision had been made on my app - but I saw one acceptance on the forum -

Thanks a lot....

Nope, I didn't apply there.

Thank you so much for the information - I found so few accept/reject been posted in the past years - actually Linda said she would notify all ppl on March 14 - no idea what happened -
