Boron Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 I got rejected from University of Oregon and got an email asking for a brief skype interview with Oregon State University, both within a minute of eachother. Any tips on what would be asked in the interview and how to approach it?
loginofpscl Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Does anyone know if MIT has finalized decisions? (i.e. not sending out any more acceptances?) chemistryfrontier and aralat 1 1
aralat Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Does anyone know if MIT has finalized decisions? (i.e. not sending out any more acceptances?) I just called them and a lady said that the majority of applicants will receive the notifications next week. H Bond 1
Alchemist921 Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 I just called them and a lady said that the majority of applicants will receive the notifications next week. You mean as in acceptances? So there's still hope?
aralat Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 You mean as in acceptances? So there's still hope? She didn't state as acceptances or rejections. However, she replied to my question that whether the decisions have been finalized or not.
loginofpscl Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 She didn't state as acceptances or rejections. However, she replied to my question that whether the decisions have been finalized or not. So decisions have not been finalized??
aralat Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 So decisions have not been finalized? Yes, it sounded like there are a few spots left. loginofpscl 1

brooksja5 Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Has anyone heard if UNC is all done with admitting students?
coldplay32 Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Has anyone heard if UNC is all done with admitting students? Someeone told me that all acceptance letters were sent, but I am stilling holding the hope. No one can 100% sure I think.
loginofpscl Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Someeone told me that all acceptance letters were sent, but I am stilling holding the hope. No one can 100% sure I think. Said who, if I may ask?
coldplay32 Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Said who, if I may ask? an admitted student asked the officer in the university and she said that all good letters has been sent out. I am not sure but as the student is not my friend. He just said on the website, so it could be wrong... Zaea 1
Shinz Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 I'm actually from UNC; last time I was in the area (last week of Jan), the guy from the Chem office (a friend of mine actually) told me they were still going through the process. A little dated info but it might help orgmet., Academics and brooksja5 3
clickclick Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Called UIUC today, lady I spoke with said they were still in the reviewing process.
rpfey Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Anyone have updates for Wisconsin -- Chemical biology track?
coldplay32 Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Anyone have updates for Wisconsin -- Chemical biology track? I can see on results search page that they sent some admission letters today. I also want to know. Can anyone who are admitted tell us what division you are in and when did you receive the letters?

Can anyone who are admitted tell us what division you are in and when did you receive the letters? I got an email for an interview on Jan 29 for Feb 3, which apparently was just a formality at that point. Got another email of confirmation today, saying the official offer should be here in a day or two. PChem, btw. Good luck, and hope this helps.

A little dated info but it might help Please, do you have an idea as to how many offers they typically give out for each Fall term and like how many applicant they usually receive? Thanks. Still waiting on UNC.

Shinz Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 I'm actually a UNC undergrad xD so I got kicked out to other places for grad school (most likely MIT)...UNC haven't even looked at my file yet since I'm their undergrad =( Anw, we had a huge incoming class last year. The year before that (the one where I wasn't too lazy to show up at year-start TA meeting), I noticed ~70 peeps there, who are pretty much all first-year. A lot of them are international students too (like myself)
clickclick Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Rejected from UIUC, that was my dream school. Email said "We cannot accommodate all who apply, and our Graduate Admissions and Appointments Committee has recommended other applicants more strongly." Feeling defeated at the moment. I'm going to start preparing to reapply for next years round by improving my general GRE and Subject GRE scores. Quite disappointed but I should have at least one, maybe two more first author publications by the time a reapply.
Academics Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Told I was rejected at UNC Chapel Hill. But official email yet to come, reasons yet to be known.
Alchemist921 Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 MIT just sent official decisions. Unfortunately I was not recommended for admissions :-(. Oh well. I applied just as a why not. No more waiting for me. Now it's decision making time!!!! Good luck to those still waiting. aralat, Academics, loginofpscl and 1 other 4
