emfarce Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 Anybody heard back from Michigan State (Plant Biology) ? Interviewed weekend of February 3rd and have yet to hear from them. Also saw that someone said they got accepted February 18th. Also, has anybody heard back from Oregon State (Botany and Plant Pathology), Colorado State (Botany), and Washington State (Plant Biology) ? Cheers!
SysEvo Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 I'm wondering has anyone received the official admission letter from Harvard GSAS, no matter what program you are in? I want to turn down offers from other places, but don't feel safe enough without the official one from Harvard...

I haven't received the letter itself, but I did get an email saying the decision was available on the portal and they had a mini-letter there saying I was admitted. (I don't know if I was supposed to get this for both programs I applied to...)

The offer letter from my program said I should get the official one from GSAS in the next few days and I'm a little impatient now...

My first program's admit letter (not GSAS) said we'd hear back late Feb to early March, and the second said March. So we should be hearing back soon.

MCF10A Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 (edited) Got accepted by UPenn CAMB Cancer Bio (tho I already emailed to withdraw my application)... I was told by the Adcom that there's a quota for international students, so I declined the offer immediately and hope some other intl student would get this slot soon. Good luck! Updates: just declined Weill Cornell PBSB and Duke Molecular Cancer Bio too. Hope will help folks on the wait list. Edited March 2, 2017 by MCF10A PhDHopeful3 and Kvothe~ 2

I did not accept, because I am still looking at a bunch of other programs. I will probably end up not attending though.

But I have no idea when they are having Skype interviews. If they don't answer your email, calling them is another option Good to hear that. Seems like their final say is on 9-10 th march.
virionoftomorrow Posted March 7, 2017 Posted March 7, 2017 I got accepted to Stanford for Genetics!! I thought for sure after the interview that I didn't stand a chance. Best day ever! Pinot Meow, Bioenchilada, bioinformaticsGirl and 10 others 13
