Orgmet Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Was told by a POI that all offers for Yale for inorganic have already gone out. Apparently they took fewer than previous years to keep the class size down. NervousChemApplicant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got in Masters in organic at NYU last week. But I think they did not review masters/PhD separately. Edited February 13, 2018 by cater99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggonzalez1996 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Is there a specific website where I can see my admission status for UC Irvine's chemistry PhD program? Still haven't heard back but I know people who've gotten in for a while now. Also has Yale already finished making their decisions? Haven't heard back from them yet either.

What makes you think they didn't review separately? I think they're pretty different programs so I feel like they would review separately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smizz Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I emailed Brown to ask about the timeline, they said they gave out some offers last week, and will be releasing more but are not sure when that will be. So don't give up hope yet! Partha_Chemistry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they're pretty different programs so I feel like they would review separately. The deadlines are the same. And based on what I have seen, they review in terms of specialization. So computational chem heard back first. Some other people applying for PhD in organic track also hear back around the same time as I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supremethiophene Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 (edited) So, did anyone on this forum get accepted to Yale for inorganic or physical chemistry? Seems like no one really did... Edited February 13, 2018 by supremethiophene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least this year they sent it in February, last year they did so in late March. So judging from the tone of the email would you say that it's mostly rejections at this point? Last year they emailed me on the 21st of Feb, interviews are right around the corner too So apparently my friend who works at Columbia right now the PI said that there were only like 2 spots for inorganic open this year, so they had to turn down a lot of people.

I feel it would be quite late now to receive an offer of an interview. Im not too fussed, I only applied as my supervisor wanted me to - but i wish you luck!

raul.carmo Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Is anyone still waiting for UIllinois Chicago? I don't want to call the department again to ask for an update because I have done so 3 times already. The final deadline for sending applications is today so I hope they will be done reviewing the remaining candidates until the of the month. If someone have an update please comment this post.

Those are helpful information! But it's strange that the school still hasn't sent an invitation to the open house… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a very good feeling that they wouldn't just push the date back for no reason other than that they are still making acceptances Did nothing become of this again? Still haven't heard back from them. WenChun and hotdoglonganisa 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
