Josie817 Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Anyone going to the Pitt IBGP interview this weekend? Heading up to Pittsburgh soon, so excited!
nile red Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Has anybody heard from Duke Molecular Cancer Bio? I know they kept extending their deadline until very recently...
SysEvo Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 For those got Yale's invitation, especially from the BSBB track, have you received anything about the traveling plan, or heard back from your emails?
AGradStudentHasNoName Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Posting here as well as comp bio thread because I'm so excited. Sanger Institute/Cambridge 4-year PhD program invite! Stemlike and LoveMysterious 2
cancergirl Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 haven't received a single interview and it's stressing me out.
inadequate Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Has anyone heard from Caltech biology program? I had an online interview with them, but nothing since and I'm freaking out.

LadyScientist Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 I feel your pain, @cancergirl... I am in the same position. I have been in panic-mode since December 15th when people started hearing back from their schools (some of which I applied to as well).

But everything else in my app is good.

So I guess we are still not lucky enough.

Berkeley mcb, UCSF tetrad, and Stanford biosciences all want me and say I was a great candidate, but Caltech rejects me like that? I am crushed. When are the interview dates? cheesesteaks, Nomad1111, CRYTIME and 9 others 1 11

Remember that this is a somewhat random process. Perhaps they have bad metrics. Perhaps other people have personal relationships that help them get in. Perhaps they are looking for people in a different subfield than you are in. You got into some great programs. Try to be happy with that. I missed one of my top choices but just got invites at 2 super programs so I am happy. But it takes some time. You have the right to grieve as well. Sorry. Cervello, cheesesteaks, spiffscience and 1 other 4
RaganSmash Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 For those still wondering about UW Immunology, I got an interview offer last night. It's my understanding that most invitations had gone out by that point, so I suspect I was a bubble guy. Good luck to everyone!

I don't know if you're international, but if that's the case I know Caltech Biology is especially harsh with international applicants. Your other programs are quite amazing though, so I'm sure you'll be happier and appreciate your overall results once the acute pain of rejection starts to fade (I'm starting to heal too, so I feel you).
CRYTIME Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 Hi, i have been following this page and I can't seem to find many people that have receive interview invites from WashU biosciences. I was wondering if they're out or if they really are waiting until next week.
AndyDr Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 Still have not received anything about travel arrangements from Weill Cornell. Lol, anyone else has the same experience?

nile red Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 2 hours ago, cancergirl said: lol, thanks! It is still early! Additionally, if you really are worried, there are a few nice programs that are still accepting applications (obv. I don't know where you've applied lol). Baylor's app is free and is extended to Jan 9th.

I think I saw somewhere that the different programs under the umbrella of biosciences process their applications separately - so someone receiving an invite from one program hopefully doesn't mean all the invites for other subprograms are out (at least that's what I'm hoping!) spiffscience 1
