Alchemist921 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Damn! Not long ago I made a post about getting into Princeton. I just got an email saying I was admitted to YALE University!!!

MarcusPhcerius Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Damn! Not long ago I made a post about getting into Princeton. I just got an email saying I was admitted to YALE University!!! What a DAY!!!!!!!! Congrats!! And for everyone, it's still really early. Go to the results page, type in the school and chemistry, and see when most acceptances were last year. Most schools didn't even start giving acceptances until mid-late january. If not for a professor from my SOP emailing me, I still wouldn't know, because I haven't yet received an offer letter. Good luck everyone! Zaea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YaBoyAR Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Just got into Washington. Also, I spoke to Berkeley's Grad Admin Office today (for an unrelated matter. Not my app), and for those interested, here's part of the convo that proceeded: Me: "I'm not calling to check on the status of my app or anything..." Nice Lady: "If you were, that'd be fine. But honestly, I always tell applicants they probably find out before we do as the Chem program accepts you way before the actual school does. Anyway, what was your call about?" Just thought someone might appreciate the info. Good luck everyone! loginofpscl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just thought someone might appreciate the info. Good luck everyone! Well, don't know about Chem Program in UC berkeley, but I actually got rejected by their MCB program (biophysical chem) today. Although this is the only school I did not apply for the Chem Department, just thought people should be glad that they have not been rejected yet. Am I helping? Got 160V, 165M, 1 JACS pub, little weak on GPA, though....Guess that did not impress Berkeley.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H Bond Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 people accepted @ UNC, what discipline did you apply for? Physical. Got the email the Jan 9th, so there's a chance they're still wading through applications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zs3889 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Did anyone here apply to University of Utah? Mind sharing the stipend that they are offering? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asaprocky Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) Accepted to Berkeley via phone call from POI in SOP. Organic. Email to follow. He said the acceptances are coming a little late this year so don't panic if you haven't heard!!! One thing that is confusing is that professor said inorganic and organic dates are switched compared to what @westcoastchemist said. I'll probably call to inquire/confirm.

I applied for Inorganic. UC Irvine asked for your TOEFL? That's ridiculous. Normally if you get an advanced degree (masters) from an American university, the TOEFL is waived.

One thing that is confusing is that professor said inorganic and organic dates are switched compared to what @westcoastchemist said. I'll probably call to inquire/confirm. The professor I talked to mentioned the dates that you heard, I think (i.e. the opposite of what westcoastchemist said). Figure we'll find out the proper dates soon enough.

appleofmypie Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Not that guy who posted in the results. (Wow 5 pubs???) Anyways, I also got into Columbia with the Dean's Fellowship. 170/165 (Q/V), 850 Chem, 3.6ish GPA (not extraordinary, I know), 3 summers and 1 school year of research, double major. I've taken quite intensive courseloads, with a ton of music (piano, voice) on top. No publications. Interest in Atmospheric Chem. Think I got good LORs. Hope that helps. clickclick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OverzealousMuch Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 I got into Columbia as well (I was one of the posters). 163 (91%)/164 (89%)/5.0 (93%) on GRE, 760 Chem GRE, 3.81 GPA. 2.5 years of research in a biorganic chemistry lab, no publications as of yet (but possibly one soon *fingers crossed*). Interested in organic chemistry. Three awesome LORs. I received my email yesterday morning. I'm surprised anyone was sending out acceptance emails on a Sunday morning... But I can deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H Bond Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 I just got waitlisted for Princeton. *~* If I accept x waitlist position, I'm essentially gambling that x number of people will decline, right? But if they don't, I've essentially thrown away the Fall 2014 application season... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
