wickie Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 So after doing the interview weekends, I have sent thank you note to the different interviewers and others that I have met. I try to personalize each one, in hopes that it doesn't look as if I am using a template. Anyway, when they email back it's a really short message. Should I be concerned?
mademoiselle2308 Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 I am. Even though I'm applying next cycle I can't wait to leave my current job. Why i signed a multi-year contract I don't know. How did you like Vanderbilt IGP? I've been thinking of applying there next cycle. ilovelab - I sent you a private message. ballwera and Dreams of the North 1 1

They're busy people -- I didn't get responses from everyone I emailed. A short reply sounds like they want you to know that they did read your email.

If they are anything like my PIs, you're lucky you even got a return e-mail. They each get a thousand or so e-mails a week. ss2player 1

Some of the PI's I've emailed have gotten back to me, some haven't. I don't think it has anything to do with standing in the program as Pastel said. It's just how available they are. gliaful and tito balisimo 1 1

Shamrock_Frog Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) Does anyone know what the turn around is for UT-Houston/GSBS after interviews? Do you hear right away or do they wait until after all the interview weekends are over? Edited February 10, 2015 by Shamrock_Frog Shamrock_Frog and mademoiselle2308 1 1

Meep_Meep Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Just got an email from a school saying that they have made their admissions decisions and want to talk to me on the phone tomorrow to discuss the decision. I can't decide whether they are calling to reject me or to accept me...?
Biochemistry Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 I think everyone who interviewed got those emails? Obviously not sure, but that's my suspicion. Good luck tomorrow
ERR_Alpha Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Just got an email from a school saying that they have made their admissions decisions and want to talk to me on the phone tomorrow to discuss the decision. I can't decide whether they are calling to reject me or to accept me...? I can't imagine there would be much to discuss about a rejection... My guess would be an admit or a wait list, but who knows.
blinchik Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Just got an email from a school saying that they have made their admissions decisions and want to talk to me on the phone tomorrow to discuss the decision. I can't decide whether they are calling to reject me or to accept me...? Let us know how it goes! I just got accepted there and they didn't tell me they were going to call beforehand - perhaps they notify people differently in the neuroscience program?
mademoiselle2308 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Has anyone heard back yet from Michigan Cancer Biology (part of PIBS). I know that they results search has a few results, but 4 people didn't list their program.
beyoncepadthai Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Second acceptance!! Ahhh this is just unreal especially since I was so insecure when applying. expandyourmind and amertume 2
