javajunkie95 Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 I'm so frustrated right now, have a school that says I didn't send my GRE scores (I did) and didn't chose the fee waiver (I did) showed screenshots and can't talk to anyone at the school because I just get hung up on. Honestly thinking the school isn't even worth my time now

ChemDude Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 (edited) I'm pretty bummed that I haven't even heard a hoot from Princeton or Yale (or any other school other than UMN). Feels like all the hard work I did over the years seems unappreciated. Edited January 18, 2018 by ChemDude

smizz Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Is anyone else applying to NYU for materials/nano? I'd really like to go there but haven't heard anything from them yet...
chembabeforever Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Hi everyone. Good luck to everyone and well done to those who have secured places. I just had an interview at Cambridge (UK), so we will see how that goes.
Orgmet Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Hi all, joining the conversation late but I've been following this thread. Congrats to everyone on the acceptances! Has anyone heard back from Caltech, Yale, or Princeton for inorganic? I haven't heard back from Berkeley yet either but that might be a lost cause since quite a few acceptances have gone out...

I’ve heard or 1 person hearing from Princeton and I think Caltech (not on this site obviously) but I think those were every early notifications because he’s a star applicant... I’d say waiting it out is still fine! A lot of the Ivies/Competitive programs tend to wait until later in January to release their decisions
Zinniak Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Has anyone not heard back from MIT yet? I saw that people have already received both acceptance and rejections. Is MIT still reviewing candidates?

MIT pretty much always interviews, and I'm pretty sure those invitations have mostly been sent out already. If you've been interviewed then there's still hope, some divisions accept students a little later than others!... If not, I'm not sure I'd count on an acceptance BUT it's still possible

There were a bunch from Princeton on the page but I think something has changed this year...they usually send out rejections immediately after they send acceptances and there's generally very little waitlisted applicants. There's like, half a dozen waitlisted when there's like, normally none?
NervousChemApplicant Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 I heard from a friend that Yale and Harvard are typically the last to release inorganic decisions

It seems like they're fairly late based on results from previous years and it's usually phone calls.
rwoodward Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 Does anyone have an offer from Caltech/Harvard for Organic Chemistry or know anymore information about the progress of their Organic Chemistry admissions?

According to the Results page (if you search "Harvard Chemistry"), the acceptances for Harvard went out like January 25/26 so I'm assuming it'll be similar this year. As for Caltech I'm not sure. rwoodward and NervousChemApplicant 2
raul.carmo Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 Has anyone heard from the University of Pittsburgh? No results in the admissions board for this term.
rwoodward Posted January 23, 2018 Posted January 23, 2018 (edited) Does anyone know how much financial support for the visit weekend Stanford offers? Edited January 23, 2018 by rwoodward
pchem2018 Posted January 23, 2018 Posted January 23, 2018 My acceptance letter said the stipend at Stanford is $41,316.
rwoodward Posted January 23, 2018 Posted January 23, 2018 I meant for the visitation weekend, my bad.
