epimeleia_heautou Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I also received a call from UMN biostatistics earlier today. Is anybody else planning on attending their admitted students days in February? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hiolpe Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 So far I've been accepted to UNC (funding details later) and rejected from UWashington. Haven't heard back from UMN yet. This is for PhD biostatistics programs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommonerCoffee Posted January 14, 2015 Author Share Posted January 14, 2015 Not necessarily CommonerCoffee. I came across this post You've been a great source of positive energy throughout the thread. =D I also received a call from UMN biostatistics earlier today. Is anybody else planning on attending their admitted students days in February? I will be unless something comes up. Should probably see what Minnesota is like during the Winter.

StatsG0d Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Seems like everyone on here is a biostatistics applicant haha. Checking statistics acceptances last year, most didn't come out until mid- to late February. Guess I have nothing to worry about (yet). Congratulations to those of you who have been accepted and best of luck to those who haven't yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarinetist Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Still waiting to hear from IA State. I'm not sure when I should expect to hear back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackersFan125 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I got invites to open house/interview events at Emroy and UPenn for Biostats PhD but no word on admission decision. However they occur at the same time. I feel like UPenn would be a higher priority for me since I live in the northeast, but anyone else have any advice on which to attend as well as information on these two programs?

CommonerCoffee Posted January 23, 2015 Author Share Posted January 23, 2015 Seems like last year, Johns Hopkins Biostatistics offered interviews emails around last week but there doesn't seem to be anything from them on the results search page this year. Anyone heard anything from them yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dynamic89 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Anyone know when Harvard Biostats will start processing international applications? Interview invites have been sent to domestic students, and internationals appeared to be on a different schedule in previous years.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommonerCoffee Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 Hmm... now I see a posting in Results for a JHU Biostatistics interview invite. Seems like that was the only posting for JHU since then as well. The forums and results seem quieter this year when compared to the chaos that waslast year, haha. Looks like a Wisconsin-Madison result is also out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The forums and results seem quieter this year when compared to the chaos that waslast year, haha. Looks like a Wisconsin-Madison result is also out. It's shocking how calm these forums are. I get anxiety just reading the thread from last year, but there's barely any posts here at all. What else is coming out soon? Washington was right on time, and if that Madison is real then they are too. Maybe Harvard this week and Michigan/CMU next week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StatsG0d Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 This forum is a blessing and a burden. It really makes you sweat when you see results were out by this time last year and none thus so far this year. I can't tell you how many times I have gone to Iowa's web site looking for a decision (they were out by the end of January last year for statistics).

CMU's application submission confirmation email stated that "All applicants will receive notification of their status by email no later than January 30" so I guess it's actually this week.

I can't tell you how many times I have gone to Iowa's web site looking for a decision (they were out by the end of January last year for statistics). I don't know if this will make you feel better or worse, but Iowa does rolling admissions, to my knowledge. For instance, I got an offer in early November two years ago (I believe I was notified by email, not the website, but am not totally sure). However, their deadline isn't until mid-February, and I think it's reasonable to think that they will holding onto a lot of applications until then to get a clearer picture of their final applicant pool. Your profile is strong; I think you definitely will have a few more schools to choose from in the next few weeks. Congrats on Texas A&M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like we need to hype up this party and add to the anxiety. Aside from NC State, it seems like most schools are slower than last year, but I could be imagining things.

Bespoke Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Hopkins is finalizing interview invitations "early" this week. Thanks for the update. When did you ask? Seems very quiet on the Hopkins front since the one interview posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgbfan Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the update. When did you ask? Seems very quiet on the Hopkins front since the one interview posting. On Monday of this week. I inquired about the invitation that had been sent, and the response I got was that they had started rolling out a few of them but would send out the rest "early" this week. Is Wednesday still considered early? Edited January 28, 2015 by kgbfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Wednesday still considered early? In academia, I'm pretty sure Friday counts as early. Late in the week means over the weekend through next Tuesday.
