No insight on Harvard, but I got an interview for Columbia a week ago. 

For the integrated program or for the pathology one?

Hi! do you know anyone who else received the good news?! seems like none of my friends received anything so far, or maybe we all got rejected T^T

I don't know of anyone who has heard back about Harvard PiN other than the two people who posted here in the last few hours. Does anyone else have any updates?

I heard from UT Southwestern via e-mail on Monday (12/11), but I sent in my application the first week of November, and I know they look at apps on a rolling basis.

Thanks for the heads up. My recommendations were late. The last got submitted on Wednesday. I got an email from Stuart Ravnik a day before that to get all my supplementary documents submitted for full review after completing the secondary application form. I'm hoping it's not too late and just keeping my fingers crossed now that everything is set. I'm actually an international student. Congrats on interview invite as well others on here.

I heard back from Pitt IBGP yesterday morning. I'm not sure if they're done reviewing and have sent out all invites yet.

I haven't heard anything either.  I'm assuming that I did not get an interview  Very disappointing.

Does anyone know if Michigan PIBS sends out interviews all at once or over a period of time? Kind of freaking out at this point :/ Thanks in advance!

Also heard nothing but PiN wasn't the best fit for me anyway so I'm ok with it

It looks like the only interview invites have been by phone so far. Years past indicate that they also send e-mails and it's mostly spread out over a few weeks, with some calls as late as January.

Interview at Harvard BBS!!! Via email! First response of the season, very excited!

 

[NeuroKat111]

Does anyone know if the UPenn neuro program is done sending emails for interviews? I've seen a couple of posts on the results page, so I'm not sure if they're sending them in batches or all at once

According to last year's thread their first emails also went out December 10th, but they kept sending invites into the new year so I still have hope lol

[NeuroKat111]

Thanks! Its been hard to not check the results page every couple min >_< good luck!!

Do you have any idea if BBS normally releases invites in batches throughout today or all at once?

From what I remember, it was over the span of two or so hours, though I can’t guarantee that will be the case this year.

Is admin sending an email or PI...?

I saw on the results page that someone has called and the department confirmed that if you have not received an email at this point,  you will not be getting an interview. Disappointed as well, but judging from the stats on other people who did not get interviews, competition must have been really intense this year. Good luck with the rest of the schools you applied to!!

I think they just released one of the batches, and the email was from an administrator

Have been working 60+ hrs/week during the application process so pretty much all of mine were sent in on the last day of the deadline. Does anyone know if interview invitations are staggered based on when an app goes in or are they always sent to everyone at the same time?
