2010 Official Biosciences Interviews and Results

<p>To those asking about UCSF Tetrad interviews:</p>

<p>There will be two dates – February 5 and 26 (both Fridays, but there is a dinner the night before if you can make it). Also, they are having their meeting this week to decide who to send invites to. To the best of my knowledge, the Tetrad program has NOT sent any invites as of yet.</p>

<p>Good luck all!</p>

<p>@tinkerer, thanks. I was not invited to a particular “area”, just BCS, maybe you’re thinking of a different program. I didn’t apply to Harvard neuro, I did bbs and mco, so i still have hope!</p>

<hr>

<p>Who here applied to Harvard BBS or MCB/MCO?</p>

<p>Re: UCSF BMS-</p>

<p>The interview list isn’t yet finalized, so it may still be a little while for final notifications of whether applicants have been invited.</p>

<p>Good luck everyone!</p>

<p>Congrats Serric! Which field have you specifically been applying? I applied to Duke as well, however I applied to their PCB program. Hopefully I’ll be hearing from them soon as well.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Thanks! And I’ve applied to all neuroscience programs, with the exception of Michigan’s PIBS and Duke’s CMB programs. Hopefully you’ll hear back!</p>

<p>dd2200: Do you have any idea what day the UCSF Tetrad committee is meeting? (Yes, I know. I’m impatient. And freaking out.)</p>

<p>Did anybody here get interview invitation from Pathobiology program at University of Washinton? I am an international student, the coordinator said they would release interviews around Jan.4 , but I haven’t heard of anything yet…</p>

<p>Anyone applying to or heard anything from U. Florida IDP (UF)?</p>

<p>Serric: why didn’t you apply to Duke’s neurobiology?</p>

<p>ItsGarfield: there’s only one weekend for Brown, at the end of February, so my guess is that the majority of invitations are out; however, as invited applicants receive more interview requests and have to make decisions about how they will spend the limited time, some may drop out, thus opening up a few more spots. This is just conjecture on my part.</p>

<p>molbio: I can’t remember exactly. I -think- it’s tomorrow, but not 100% sure. I wouldn’t expect to hear anything until next week though (don’t freak out!).</p>

<p>To those of you who received the request for a faculty list at Wash U’s BBS Program: have you all been invited for interviews? I just received an email asking for my list (I submitted my application right before the deadline), and I’m just wondering what this means.</p>

<p>(Thanks for the UCSF info dd2200!)</p>

<p>got an invite from Duke CMB as well yesterday. </p>

<p>Serric, who did you get the email from duke?</p>

<p>For wash U, I got an invite on 22nd of january after that request of faculty list. The invite should be on your way soon.</p>

<p>molbio:</p>

<p>I’m sure this email means interview, cong~</p>

<p>I know a lot of people who received this email AT THIS TIME (around Jan) before receiving formal interview.</p>

<p>However, I received this email ONE MONTH ago but still received no news, so I’m really wondering I was first selected for interview but then cut off…sigh~~~</p>

<p>Molbio:</p>

<p>Are you domestic or international?
I’m international…</p>

<p>I’m a domestic applicant.</p>

<p>It’s official, from the program itself: All University of Washington Neurobiology invitations have been sent out and all plane tickets have been purchased. </p>

<p>It’s a shame. Seattle seemed awesome.</p>

<p>Opps for WashU, I wrote 22nd of january. I meant december :). and I am an international.</p>

<p>Hi everyone,</p>

<p>Just discovered this forum.</p>

<p>So far:</p>

<p>Interview: WashU DBBS (Call on 12/23) - for 1/27-1/29
Reject: UWisconsin- Madison (Email on 1/6)</p>

<p>Hello!
So, I’m not sure if there are others out there like me hoping to hear back from any Evolutionary Biology PhD Programs, because I’ve searched this thread and some others and I’ve gotten very few/outdated hits. I’ve applied to UChicago, Cornell, Princeton, UCLA, UCDavis, SUNY Stonybrook, & Rutgers as well as NYU and Georgetown (Biology PhDs). Has anyone heard from any of these schools? I received an email yesterday from a professor @ UCLA to discuss “opportunities” in his lab but I haven’t received a formal invite. Is that indicative of an interview to come, or should I not get my hopes up? Thanks!</p>
