Orims Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 For those of you who got MIT interview, did MIT contact you guys to confirm the interview dates? I submitted their form on Monday and have not heard anything since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orims Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 For people who applied to Princeton Molecular Biology: I just called their student services manager and I was told that they are sending interview invites in a rolling basis and will continue to do so for the next week and a half!

elanorci Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Geez I was right. People are really bitter on this site. I'm not sure what you mean by this... If you're talking about the downvotes you got on the post of yours that said that Princeton bio was "done" sending invites in December and that people now are "only" getting in because "people like you turned down interviews," I gave you one of those, even though I got my Princeton interview a while ago and am therefore not at all bitter. I downvoted you mostly because your comment was unhelpful: "done" means that no more invites are being sent out, but we clearly just received confirmation from one of our own commenters that Princeton interviews are still being sent out, so you were wrong, and I don't want people to be misled by your comment. Also, it seemed kind of rude. So yeah. Louis21, bonohamu, rat.girl and 21 others 22 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tcmazer Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Geez I was right. People are really bitter on this site. elanorci is right, your comment was rude. I mean, how else are people supposed to interpret "you only got an interview because I didn't want it?"

tcmazer Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Just called UT Austin CMB, they said that the end of the month is when the vast majority of interviews will be sent out, so plenty of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ss2player Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Have you received an itinerary and the list of faculty who you will be interviewing with? I haven't yet and I'm starting to get worried. I am as well! But also no itinerary. Hopefully by Friday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightrunner Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I just got an email from Northwestern saying that you can check you status in your application if you do not hear from them before March. I'm not sure what to make of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCN Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 For those wondering about University of Washington Micro, I spoke to one of their advisers yesterday. She wasn't absolutely certain, but she said all of the interview invites have probably gone out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not send an email to them, but they at least told me they finished reviewing my application. I am just curious if other people have the same type of email.

BostonBio153 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Hey everyone, quick question about interviews... Are you guys sending thank you notes to your interviewers, or do you think an email saying thanks will do? Since the interviews aren't that long and are pretty informal, I would imagine that an email would be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biohopeful91 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I haven't received an email like that. You applying to DGP? I did not send an email to them, but they at least told me they finished reviewing my application. I am just curious if other people have the same type of email. I recieved an email from the DGP saying I could track my status about a week after I submitted it (submitted on 12/14). I recieved my interview within a few days after that, so maybe it's automated once your application has been reviewed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recieved my interview within a few days after that, so maybe it's automated once your application has been reviewed. I got that email a week after applying on December 1st, but haven't heard anything else. I think it's automatically sent when you're "in the system." So we'll see.

Are you guys sending thank you notes to your interviewers, or do you think an email saying thanks will do? Since the interviews aren't that long and are pretty informal, I would imagine that an email would be fine. I was gonna just email them that night or 1 day after saying thank you.. Just to make that final good impression before they forget me haha bonohamu, BostonBio153 and Signal transduction 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tama_rama Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Does anyone have insight into policies on interview invites to two programs from the same school? I have an invite for Wisconsin Cancer Bio and am waiting to hear from CMB and just wondering if it would be unusual to be invited to interviews for both departments.

LMac Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I was gonna just email them that night or 1 day after saying thank you.. Just to make that final good impression before they forget me haha When I was interviewing last year, that's what I did. Just a quick thanks, and that enjoyed talking with them. Usually I tried to mention a little something from the conversation, so it seemed a little more personalized. ss2player 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
