xxyyxx Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 When are everyone's NYU Sackler interview dates? Mine is 3/5-6, which seems late. Are the earlier interview dates higher priority or something? And anyone know the post-interview acceptance rate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True - I expressed interest in the Pathology and Translational Medicine / Cell and Mol. Bio programs, so that might be it. I'm a little paranoid because I'm banking on this school in light of my low GPA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a little paranoid because I'm banking on this school in light of my low GPA Mine is Jan 22/23. I selected microbio as my main area of interest. It seems to be based off of program since another post on the results page had the same date for microbio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForScience! Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 no interview for NYU....im so sad What program did you apply for? I went for Molecular Oncology and tumour immunology, and didn't get any correspondence from them yet.

NWFreeheel11 Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Has anyone applied to the Dartmouth Quantitative Biomedical Sciences (QBS) PhD program? If so, have you heard anything back from them yet? I have a couple of questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, neither did I hear from Weill Cornell BCMB I don't remember choosing a specific program but if i did it would have either been molecular and cell biology or something to do with oncology so that's a big possibility. I know that NYU has a low acceptance rate but I would think that if i got interviews to upenn, columbia, and johns hopkins then I would get one for NYU too.... Has anyone else that expressed interest in oncology for NYU sackler gotten an interview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be the case actually, on the results thread, there were different notification dates so there might be some more after christmas. @ForScience! You might still get an interview after christmas so don't lose hope yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insaneinthemembrane Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Hey everyone, So I was searching for how to prepare for interviews and I came across this blog post from someone here who went on interviews and gave us some helpful hints. Thought I would pass the link along Merry Christmas!! ghostoverground, Dedi and ForScience! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berba9 Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Full-panic mode now... I have seen a lot of references to NYU Sackler and Weill Cornell in here but not so much to NYU (Biology-Genomics and systems bio) or Cornell (Biochem, mol and cell bio) itself. Anyone know when they generally send out the interview requests/rejects/accepts? (I am an international applicant if that makes any difference) I'd really appreciate it if people who have got invites to any of the other programs I am applying to also say if interview emails are being sent. So far I have seen stuff for UCSF TETRAD which is my absolute dream but in which I always knew I had no chance... Especially if emails are being sent from UWisconsin-Madison Genetics and UChicago Genomics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxtini Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 (edited) Usually International students will be offered admission or interview around january/february/march~ Relax and enjoy your holdays~ Edited December 25, 2014 by Maxtini ozhyna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berba9 Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Thanks. It's just very much like me to worry Actually the very early interview request from Duke I think has skewed my perspectives...now every day that goes by I assume one more place has rejected me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrischigta Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 (edited) Does anyone know how many students Weill Cornell accepts after interviews? Is it inappropriate to ask the program coordinator such things? Edited December 26, 2014 by Chrischigta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
expandyourmind Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 ughhhh this is a nightmare! i had trouble getting in my official transcript with Johns Hopkins Neuroscience and had to speak with an admissions officer like 5 times, and eventually they said that my application was complete. Now I look at my application and it says that it is incomplete online! Has anyone had this problem? I sent an e-mail to the director but from what I've seen most of the interviews have been sent out... is it too late for them to look at my application?

Sometimes they will still review an incomplete application. That's what sloan kettering told me when my GRE scores didn't make it there....
