2011 Official Biosciences Interviews and Results

<p>@Ashmaniac09,</p>

<p>how did you learn how many international applicant applied to Harvard BBS ? I was wondering because i could not reach them via phone.</p>

<p>Hi sherman,</p>

<p>I inquired in June already, and got the info from the BBS’ secretary. Are you international, too?</p>

<p>@ashmaniac09</p>

<p>yeap i am international, from Turkey. waiting for interview invitations. Do you have any idea how they,Harvard BBS, notify international students regarding decision ?</p>

<p>my guess is that international candidates will receive an email, although I am not sure. where else did you apply to?</p>

<p>I applied to MIT bio, UCSF Tetrad, Weill Cornell Allied, Sloan Kettering, Scripps (Biology Track), WashU (MOl Bio), Princeton (Mol Bio), Harvard (MCB& BBS)</p>

<p>potentially rejected : MIT bio, UCSF tetrad.
interview: Sloan Kettering
waiting: the rest :slight_smile:
what about u ? i know you got very good interviews/ admission up to know</p>

<p>I have admission to Rockefeller and UC Berkeley, and an interview with UMich PIBS. Still waiting for the rest (MSSM, Columbia, Harvard BBS, UCSF Tetrad, UT Southwestern)</p>

<p>why do you think you got rejected from Tetrad? Have all the interview invites gone out?</p>

<p>i don’t think TETRAD is over yet, many posted that their invites come in waves (I’m waiting for it too). Also, I confirmed with UCSD Biological Sci the other day that they are still reviewing apps, in case people are waiting for that one as well.</p>

<p>@sirtuin: I’m so jealous of your stanford invite! I really wanted to go there. Did it look like it was a batch email sent to all interviewees?</p>

<p>Does anyone know if there is an alternative date than the 16-18th for the Allied Program at Weill?</p>

<p>And for Cold Spring Harbor, what is the chance of getting accepted after an interview?</p>

<p>yes, @gradTomorrow, i talked to someone at cornell and it seems that they are still reviewing applications and that another date will most likely be set up</p>

<p>@ashmaniac09, </p>

<p>i called and asked them,tetrad, the guy said" unfortunately you are not on the list". I do not know whether they sent all the invitation.</p>

<p>@ladeeda119 </p>

<p>Probably was sent to all cancer bio interviewees? I got the email too this morning</p>

<p>sherman, I sent you a PM :)</p>

<p>Anyone applied to Biostatistics program at Harvard School of Public Health?</p>

<p>has anyone heard from UNC-BBSP or Vanderbilt-IGP in january? i know they sent out invites back in december…</p>

<p>@ladeeda</p>

<p>Yeah, it looked like a form email. It did have a copy of my personal interview offer attached.</p>

<p>@whoever asked </p>

<p>I’m a domestic applicant to genetics and genomics</p>

<p>@mantidguy</p>

<p>I concur - you look like a strong candidate, minus the GRE score. Retake it. Good luck!</p>

<p>So - to clarify - Stanford and Harvard don’t do waves; just send things out at once over the course of a few days? Is that accurate? </p>

<p>…I’m a little bummed that I haven’t heard from Stanford, but mostly just happy about UCSF. :)</p>
