Edit to prevent spam: I just saw that someone posted on the results page about an invite to UCSD "Biological and Biomedical Sciences (BBS)".. is this a troll or typo or is there actually a BBS at UCSD? I think they just probably got confused. UCSD offers two separate programs: a Biomedical Sciences (BMS) program as well as a Biological Sciences program.
Ferroportin Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Also this 'waiting for interview phone calls' process has made me immensely more annoyed at telemarketers and phone surveys.... Superres 1

Thankfully, I am going to see the new Star Wars movie tomorrow night, so it'll occupy my mind for a while Also, not sure if anyone here is applying to the Penn Neuroscience program, but I think they also send out invites in waves. My PI is on the adcom for neuro and she is still reviewing apps! Ahhhh I applied to Penn Neuro (and really like the program/my POI) and hadn't heard anything yet, so thank you so much for this!! I wasn't sure if they were going to send out another wave or if this was it. There is hope!! 1 hour ago, SpartanNerd1021 said: Haha yes, I do bleed green and white! Spent 5 years there for undergrad. All I want for Christmas is a national championship title. Go Green!! And I assume you're talking about football here, but MSU's basketball team is also scary good this year! I'm a big Maryland basketball fan (go terps!) because that's where I'm from, so I look forward to playing you guys (and Denzel Valentine) once conference play starts :)))

My heart stops every time I see a @ .edu email, it's so disappointing when it's an invitation to apply to a school I'm not interested in and not an invitation for an interview!
tcmazer Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Phone call and immediate email afterwards from WUSTL DBBS MGG!!!! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! AtomDance 1

NeuroMetro Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 If anyone hears anything from University of Colorado - Denver Anschutz Neuroscience, please post. I've seen evidence of invites sent, but nothing here, nor in my inbox (sadly).
b@cteria Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Has anyone else heard from Princeton Mol Bio?
NeuroSC Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Emory Neuro interview invitation from the director of the program. Weekends feb 4-6 or 18-20.

I know the committee met yesterday, but my PI had to miss the meeting....I'm assuming they'll send out invites by the end of the week. I know that some of the other programs call, but but not sure about neuroscience.
dev_123 Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Whomp, just had to decline my first interview. Not a difficult decision for me to make between the two conflicting programs, but still a bummer.
Superres Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Just confirmed that the recruitment director will call for Emory.
molecularbio23 Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Is it inappropriate to contact your POI about the admissions process? ie when admissions will send interview invites? My POI who I've remained in consistent contact with is on the admissions committee.

My POI who I've remained in consistent contact with is on the admissions committee. Because it's still relatively early in the process I probably wouldn't bug them about it yet especially if they're on the committee since they're probably pretty busy. Although you're the best judge on your relationship with your POI so if you guys are super chummy then it might be perfectly fine to ask. 4eyes and stillalivetui 1 1

I think I'm just getting way too antsy way too early in the game. Thank you!

I'm finishing up my undergrad here on the banks of the Red Cedar and will miss East Lansing dearly. and @den-of-thieves , will definitely be looking forward to that matchup. It's been a pretty great past few years to be a student here, that's for sure... Excited for Dec 31... See ya, Bama SpartanNerd1021 1
