The problem is that I have to let them know by next monday. Their system isn't like the US. You don't get until april 15th... How do I decide? Well, that is hard to decide. Do you have a ranking of the schools in your heart? What is the rank of Sanger? I have been to Sanger (EMBL-EBI). I do not know much about the research but physically stayed there for a week. The campus is far away from city and even countryside but very beautiful.
doerlbh Posted January 27, 2017 Posted January 27, 2017 Anyone hear back from Brown University's Computational Biology? I heard they have very few slots. Not sure where the admissions is at now.

eagb Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 For schools with 2 interview weekends, do most wait until after the second to make offers?

I went to UChicago and Northwestern, both of which have 3 weekends. Got accepted after the first one - but I think it depends on the school.

eagb Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Ahh good to know. Don't see any results posted yet in the database...gonna assume that maybe they wait since the 2 visits were only 2 weeks apart.
desmond.bo Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 Got an email from MIT CSBi offering an interview for the next weekend !!!??? Do not lose your hope too early guys. I guess there is indeed a waiting list. bioinformaticsGirl, SysEvo and MCF10A 3

I did receive one rejection letter from Department of Biology that day but I don't know whether it comes from the MIT Biology Program or CSB.

verne91 Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 Has anyone heard from UMich Bioinformatics(not PIBS)?
eagb Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 Accepted to MIT Biology...will very likely be attending. Initially thought CSB would be a better fit, but after interviewing for both, the differences are very subtle between the two and the structure of Bio was a better fit for me. desmond.bo and Epigenetics 2

I didn't hear a reply yet, but they said within 1 week which would be a few more days for me (went on a different day because of the snow cancelling flights).
