Mich and UNC BBSP called me last week for an interview and to look out for an email this week. Not sure how the process works for either though. A professor from the program I specified within PIBS  (physiology) called me, so it might depend on the program.  I haven't heard anything about vandy. When did you hear from OSU? 

I heard back from Ohio State on December 5th via email. They have already sent out the recruitment weekend schedule for Jan 11-13th to all invited for that weekend and already sent me my flight info.

Are emails for interviews typically sent out at once at the exact same time, or do they seem to trickle out throughout the day?

It seems to depend on the program, but all of mine have been trickling in (I've seen people say they get an interview a few hours before my email)

I just received an email about volunteering for the UPenn CAMB interview weekend, so that might mean that they’re going to be sending invites pretty soon. Good luck to those that applied! :) 

Do you know what weekend this is?

anyone hear back from Baylor College of Medicine or know the interview stats and admissions stats after interview?

Hello fellow Texan. I am from the DFW. I am waiting to hear back from BCM as well. No one has posted about BCM yet on here as far as I know. Hopefully we'll hear back this week.

I heard back from BCM's Developmental Biology program last Wednesday. I think that it's program-dependent on when you'll hear back.

Still no interviews. Getting nervous and disappointed.

GPA 3.94

V/Q/W (158,161,4.0)

lots of research experience including Amgen Scholars.   

 

 

Same boat. Sounds like most of the programs I applied to (Harvard BBS, UPenn CAMB, etc.) have already sent out their invitations (and it sounds like Harvard BBS etc. sends out all invitations on the same day). I don't know if I am feeling nervous or disappointed right now.

Looks like UT Austin CMB and Northwestern IbiS have sent out interviews. I, unfortunately, have not received either. 

 

I emailed University of Georgia Microbiology and they will send out interviews at the end of this week.
