TheNewDoctor Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Has anyone who applied for inorganic heard back within the last week? If you're referring to Northwestern, I applied for materials and haven't heard back yet either. Looks as if they haven't sent anything out for our sub-fields yet as far as I can tell from this thread and the results submissions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SarshTheAwesome Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Good news! I got an acceptance email from UI-UC today! Looks like it payed off to get the application in early. This is a bit of a delayed response, but I turned my app in on the due date (Dec 15th) and heard back four days later. They are on the ball with the application process!! Question, were you in contact with any of the professors there? I'm wondering if thats why I heard back so fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChemPlasmonics Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Just received an email from UT-Austin. They did not mention the funding amount, but said "You are being considered for competitive departmental and university fellowships that will be announced and awarded in the upcoming months". I wonder if all emails say this and don't mention the amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ragneo Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Did any of you guys applying at UCSF hear anything yet? (I'm assuming you guys applied to the CCB program) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruehl Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) Hi, has anyone here got an interview offer from Princeton? I've been in contact with one of the professors before and after submitting the app and I am now a bit confused because a completely new professor emailed me to have an interview... The email doesn't say any specific thing other than the interview schedule so I really don't have a clue what is going on. Would this mean that my POI no longer considers me as a prospective student in his lab? Or does anybody know what the interview process is like?

It may be that then POI that you're interested in is fully booked for interviews, or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catria Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 So I really ought to wonder whether the PhD applicant pool for STEM disciplines has collapsed the same way humanities applicant pools have... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChanEvansLam Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Berkeley seems to be pushing very hard for my visiting and matriculation. I received a phone call mid-December from a POI, official acceptance emails two weeks letter, and an email today from a POI. What is particularly annoying is scheduling all visiting weekends. Some of them conflict and some schools have specified dates by which you must notify the school of your visitation plan (for planning and reiumbrsement). It would be very helpful if schools had an agreement as to when they would notify potential candidates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I got admitted to Berkeley pretty early as well, I can't say I've had the same experience. A POI emailed me before Christmas but addressed me by the wrong name. In the email he said he would give me a call between the holidays but I still haven't heard anything from him. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queue Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Accepted to Berkeley today through e-mail and a pending phone call from my POI! Congrats! I hope I hear soon from other schools too.. Looks like a lot of early Berkeley acceptances are from Organic Chemistry Program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doyouevenchop Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) Did you berkeley guys email POI's first? I didn't email a single POI before submitting applications, probably should've done that. Hindsight is 20/20 Not to mention that the three of you also got into Stanford/Yale, so I'm sure Berk is trying hard to pull in some of the top talent Edited January 7, 2015 by doyouevenchop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curiouschemist Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) Hey everyone! First time posting but have been a lurker. I was definitely freaking out for a while so I thought I might as well say my situation.I got into Berkeley on Dec 15th via email with my POI emailing me shortly after saying they would try to squeeze in a call. Just got into UNC via email this afternoon. I am organometallic but applied for inorganic in most places, it seems the organic divisions are sending out acceptances a little earlier.

I got emails from 2 of the 3 I listed. One is a collaborator of the lab I currently work in, so I wasn't too surprised, but the other had no connection to me or my lab. I applied to the materials program btw (not sure if that's in my sig) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinetic Isotope Defect Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) So is UMich done sending interviews? People who got an interview, what was your field? I don't think UMich has made very many decisions for chemistry at all, the results search shows only one person here has been accepted so far.

As I mentioned in a previous post, I got an email from a POI (listed as my #1 choice on my app to Berkeley) one week after I was accepted. He said he would call me but he still hasn't. He also addressed me by the wrong name... Merp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
