Let me know if you hear anything though!

synapticcat Posted February 6, 2018 Posted February 6, 2018 Has anyone who interviewed with U-M PIBS through the neuro program heard anything yet? I know people who interviewed with other departments have heard, but I haven't heard anything from anyone who interviewed through neuro. Starting to get worried, although I know they have until Friday to get back to us and according to previous years people still received acceptances around that time.

Expand I interviewed this past weekend for PIBS Neuro, and I definitely have a ton of anxiety about waiting. No one has heard for Neuro.

JustHopefulMe Posted February 9, 2018 Posted February 9, 2018 HI everyone! Glad that I found this thread. I got interviewed at Florida State University on 1/26 and at the University of Cincinnati on 2/1. Haven't heard from either yet. I have been rejected from the University of Minnesota (without an interview). I still haven't heard anything from the University of Michigan, though. I applied directly to the NGP (not through the PIBS), and have seen people post interviews and rejections on the results page. Do they do multiple rounds of interviews? Or should I just wait for my rejection letter at this point? Good luck to all!

Congrats on your interviews - I don't know much about FSU, but Cinci is a fantastic school and I know a current neuro grad there (formerly in the neuro dept with me at my undergrad institution) and she is very happy! Per your questions about UMich, I am fairly confident that their interview weekend is in March according to my PI, but do not know if they've sent out invites yet - pretty sure it's only one weekend though. Sometimes on the results page I can't tell if people who selected "4-year Neuroscience" mean the NGP, or PIBS, because there's also a "4-year Neuroscience (PIBS)" one. It looks like a few people received rejections - so maybe they're still deliberating? On the other hand, I can't find a straight NGP interview reported, they all say PIBS as far as I can tell. I know they only just notified accepted students who applied through PIBS, because I just found out yesterday. I would say maybe reach out to the department and ask what's up?

Expand Thanks for your reply! I really hope they are still deliberating as you said and that I would get an invitation soon. UMich is one of my top choices and would love to hear a positive reply from them. As for Cincinnati, I loved it too! The facilities are really fancy compared to my current institution and the people were very nice. I hope my interviews went well over there.

I hope everything turns out well with you. I think I will stay hopeful since I haven't received a rejection yet and there still is a month until the interview weekend?
JustHopefulMe Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 On another note, I heard that it is good etiquette to send a "thank you" e-mail to those who interviewed you. I didn't know that was a thing (oops! ) Do you think it would be a good idea to send one now (a week after the interview) or should I just forget about it?

I forgot to as well and did it like a week and a half later. Only email those with whom you felt you had a great conversation or who you really liked. JustHopefulMe 1

synapticcat Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 Slightly off topic, but I had a quick question. After receiving an offer at one school, I got a nice email from a faculty member I interviewed with congratulating me on my acceptance and asking if I had any questions/saying that he hopes I give their school serious consideration, etc. If a faculty member signs their email with their first name, should I address them as such in the response? I always feel weird calling PIs by their first name in communications unless I know them personally. If it matters, I am going to be accepting an offer at this school, but am still waiting for the official offer of admittance to go through on my online portal so I can accept, and am talking things over with my family and current PI so that everyone's on board with my decision.
