kiran.khialani Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Anybody receive the interview invite and know what to expect from it? how good are the chances of getting in, if you get invited For the interview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onedayslp Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I have the same questions! I also received the interview invitation yesterday. Unfortunately I won't be able to travel there so will have to do the Skype option. I am curious how long the interviews are and also how many people get to this stage. Anyone have insight?

neucool Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I got an invite too, curious to know as well. I'm nervous! My guess is that they are probably relatively short interviews though, like Emerson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiran.khialani Posted February 10, 2015 Author Share Posted February 10, 2015 I got one for BU not Emerson. It's odd considering BU is supposed to be harder to get into, I thought. I'll ask somebody I know from BU and let you'll know. Let's hope somebody knows. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slpPLS Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Hi, I received an email saying "Due to our exceptionally talented application pool, we are unable to invite you for an interview at this time. A final decision regarding your application will be made by the first week in March." I was wondering should I assume I have been rejected? Will there be a different round of interviews? Do I have a chance of getting on the waitlist? I knew I was reaching with BU so I'm not surprised but I am trying to keep a positive outlook. Thanks for any insight!

slplivin Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Anyone else really concerned about the weather? Boston is supposed to get even more snow this weekend and I am really hoping we can all still travel to the interview! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwurth Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Anyone else really concerned about the weather? Boston is supposed to get even more snow this weekend and I am really hoping we can all still travel to the interview! I'm worried too! I have to drive up from Ohio and I really feel like I could make a better impression in person over skype. Congrats to everyone who received an interview and best of luck!

neucool Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Yeah, I'm in the Northeast and the weather is stressing me out big time. :/ I'm not as worried about travel because I'm taking the train (from NY) but I am def worried about school closure. It would suck to spend the time and $$ just to have to Skype from the hostel... Although I'd be even more anxious if I was one of y'all coming from farther/flying in!

slplivin Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 So has anyone found out any more information regarding the interview process? I am trying to figure out what to expect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onedayslp Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Has anyone been able to find out how long these interviews are? Mine starts are 3:50, so can I assume it's only 10 minutes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emily2392 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Someone on the results page said that their acceptance to Northeastern was posted on the website today. Has anyone else received an acceptance? If so, when did you submit your application? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onedayslp Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 My BU interview was today over Skype. It was really short, less than 15 minutes. They only asked a handful of questions and nothing about prerequisite material. good luck Sunday interviewees! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taniawu Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Can anyone share which professors interviewed them at BU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onedayslp Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Can anyone share which professors interviewed them at BU? I guess I was pretty nervous because I can't seem to remember their names... it was two ladies, though. For those of you who interviewed in person -- how was the tour of the facilities? What kind of feel did you get from the students you met? Any info is appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neucool Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 BU definitely impressed on the facilities front. There was a very long tour of all the research labs, they made it clear that they had lots of access to medical imaging equipment and pretty much anything else you'd expect from a large research institution. I don't remember the names of the faculty I interviewed with, they were by no means unfriendly but I found them a little bit stiff/distant. The students seemed pretty stressed and overwhelmed, but they were pretty friendly too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slplivin Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Did they say during in-person interviews when we should expect to hear back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
