I had the same transition from Under review to being reviewed and I got an acceptance call last night. 

Congrats ! Hope I'll hear about mine too (hopefully). Probably taking longer for me since I am international

Don't lose hope! I emailed the program, and apparently what happened to me was some sort of a mix up (I've been accepted, but the RSVP request was sent to me before the actual offer). I was told another wave of letters should be released this week.

Hey thanks for your hope! I got the email for the invitation and the acceptance on the application page yesterday! Pretty pumped for visitation weekend.

Hi Everyone!

Has anyone heard from: Northeastern, Boston University, Boston College, Tufts, Dartmouth, or University of Oregon?

The application deadlines were between Jan 1-Jan15, so it's still a little early to hear back. But I'm just too nervous/excited/anxious!

I heard from Boston University around January 6th. My POI emailed me for a Skype interview and to invite me to recruitment weekend. I submitted my application late December. However, I have not received an official acceptance yet. Good luck on everything!

 

Has anyone heard from Emory??

I didn't receive any notifications after submissions from Caltech, MIT. UCB, Yale, UChicago, Columbia, and Princeton...!!

It really makes me mad. Will I receive a rejection email from Princeton tomorrow?

I received an informal e-mail/letter from Johns Hopkins today notifying me of my acceptance to the graduate chemistry program (physical chemistry specifically). I only submitted my application on Jan 11!

I got into Hopkins as well! Congrats to you! Also, they got to me about 2 weeks after I applied before the application deadlines! Their adcomm is on the ball. Hope to see you on visitation weekend!

Wow, yeah I was quite impressed based on what I had heard from friends in years past who had to wait on acceptances from other schools. Congrats to you as well! I'll be there!

I haven't yet, but according to the results survey two people have heard back. I'm surprised it's taking so long, I submitted my application in October!

My UPenn email from POI started with "Thank you for applying to the University of Pennsylvania..." for 10 minutes I thought I was rejected because that choice of wording almost always meant a rejection, but then I bothered to read the message and I got in

I'm one of the people who heard back (in October), but I had been in contact with my POI for over two years before applying, so don't worry!!! And good luck!!!

Princeton just sent me a rejection letter.

No worries, my friend. I was rejected as well, although I had no doubt that it was a pretty good fit for both sides. I hope that you will recieve more offers.

Sometimes you gotta say "what the f*ck?", make your move.

Congrats on BU! I submitted mine late December as well and haven't heard anything from anyone.. When should I start to worry about not hearing anything?

OMG! I just got an offer from Princeton with a fellowship!!

Congrats! What division did you apply for? And I sure hope you got a fellowship, it would be a crime to have to pay for a PhD in chemistry.

Thank you a lot! Division is Inorganic chemistry (organometallic, coordination chemistry).

Has anyone heard from Scripps for Organic? I've only been accepted to Berkeley and UCLA at the moment. Doubtful of Stanford / Caltech. Praying for MIT. 

I've got an interview at Scripps for organic (username gives it away heh). I have not heard from Berkeley yet tho!

I assume that if Scripps hasn't sent you any interview offer until now, you're probably done for.

She just said I was invited for interview. She thought I was still in UK and asked me if I can go to London in Mid Jan during her meeting in London. I told her I'm now in Singapore. Then she said we will have Skype interview. She will be in touch with be "when new year comes". This conversation was on 21 Dec. After that no more update...
