And do you know if that is CAMB wide or for a certain track? Also, I called Sloan Kettering today to update them about a part of my application and they told me that they will be sending invites next week! Edited December 14, 2017 by abhisheks94

krafael Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 Does anyone know when the admission committee of Columbia/Berkeley neuroscience would meet ?

devbioboy Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 Heard back from WashU DBBS and Vanderbilt IGP yesterday and Pitt IBGP and BCM DevBio this morning, all with invites!
CaliforniaRunnerKid Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 Does anyone have any idea on what percent of phd applicants get interviews? I've found a number of resources on how many interviewees get acceptances, but I haven't seen anything talking about what percent of applicants a typical program will give interviews to. Also, if you don't get an interview, can you more or less write that off as a rejection or do people get accepted to bio/biomed phds without interviews? Thanks!

Can't really help with your first question, but are those resources about how many interviewees get acceptances school specific? If they are, could you share? It would be really helpful to understand our relative chances at programs if we are offered an interview. Based on the bio applicant threads from the past 2 years, I don't remember anyone getting accepted to a program (that does interviews) that they weren't offered an interview at.
_caffeinated Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 Has anyone heard from Pitt MCDB or NYU Sackler?

CaliforniaRunnerKid Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 1 minute ago, tnoelle72 said: I know that this is just one example, but I talked to someone from the AdComm at Harvard Neuroscience and they said that they received a little over 400 applications and of those would be sending out around 45 interview invites. Hope this helps a little! Interesting, thank you. Would love to get more data points if anyone knows.

Congrats! I applied to WashU neuroscience and haven’t heard back yet. It’s my top school, so I’m hoping I still get an invite. What program did you apply to if you don’t mind me asking?
vallaboop Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 If the person who received and invite for the neuroscience program at University of Washington could PM me I would really appreciate it! I'm just wondering a specific faculty member reached out directly and what they said?
