And we would be hearing back no later than February 15th on our application decision (which she did not confirm or deny either way). Based on that, I'm definitely expecting a rejection some time soon GChopeful860 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on that, I'm definitely expecting a rejection some time soon Dang, that's pretty disheartening. I didn't see very many people on here say they got interview invitations from UT, so I was hoping more invites would be going out soon. I only applied to UT and Baylor, so I'm not too thrilled about my prospects this year. Ah well, one more year to fluff up my resumé.

kgene88 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Just got my official rejection from the U of M and this one stings. This process is tough! I'm consoling myself by prepping for the interviews I do have, and trying to be grateful they took a chance on me. I'm curious, how many schools did everyone else apply to? I applied to six, which I thought was a high amount, but now I'm not so sure. That said, just going to the interviews I do have will cost me a bit of money, so I'm not sure I could have afforded to go to more!

Many people on this thread applied to over 10 schools (You can see which schools in some of our signatures). I applied to 8 and some only applied to 1 or 2 based on location and the crazy costs that come with all of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming it's a rejection since I didn't get an interview offer but it's weird that others have gotten a rejection email already. I assume they send them out altogether?

NewAtThis Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 8 hours ago, kgene88 said: I'm curious, how many schools did everyone else apply to? I've read several places based on graduate admission statistics that applying to 4-6 schools is the best shot for a qualified candidate. Any thing lower, and you might miss out, anything higher doesn't significantly increase any one's chances. That being said, I am learning now that genetic counseling may be different because of how few programs there are available. I applied to 4, money and work schedule.

They called me to tell me that I received an interview, but I got my phone call over a week after other people on the forum did, so it seems like they're doing rolling admissions. After the phone call she said she'd send an e-mail confirmation, so that's what I thought you meant. They definitely still have a lot more phone calls to make, so don't write them off just yet!
