Any interview offers for Biomedical/Bioengineering?

<p>UCSD and Seattle</p>

<p>I got caltech bioengineering interview this morning, it is going to be on February 20th.</p>

<p>Is anyone else concerned or even befuddled by the fact that many schools (e.g. Berkeley Bioeng) haven't even sent out interview invites yet?</p>

<p>I feel like this year is not matching with how things have gone historically, and it's making me die a little on the inside, haha.</p>

<p>I think Stanford, UCSD, UPenn, Caltech, in some cases Northwestern, BU, Utah, and UT Austin sent out invites, but Berkeley did not.</p>

<p>Meh, haven't heard back from Penn either.</p>

<p>Do you hear from U Penn or know someone got the invitation? The faculty replied my email on Jan 21st that they will send out the invitations in the next several weeks.</p>

<p>I heard from UPenn today, by email.
There are three dates, ranging from about Feb 20th, till March 20th, so I guess there still is time to get invitations!</p>

<p>There is a fair share of information on that website:

<p>Someone was invited for an interview at UC Berkeley Bioengineering (thegradcafe). Did anyone else get the email? =(</p>

<p>I know... I saw it too... I check this thing every chance I get. And no, i did not receive an invite... :( let's hope they keep coming!</p>

<p>three people i know got invitations for berkeley bioengineering by email, yesterday.</p>

<p>Does anyone know if UCB has a wait-list? Also, if one is nominated for a fellowship, does he/she find out about his/her acceptance at a later date?</p>

<p>No idea about the wait-list. However, you will probably get your fellowship information after an interview followed by an acceptance letter. I'm sure they are still going to be sending invites. </p>

<p>I received a UCSD invite yesterday - an example that they may not all come at once.</p>

<p>So far I heard from:
UPenn Bioengineering
JHU Chem+Biomolecular Eng
Caltech Bioengineering
Stanford Bioengineering</p>

<p>Any news, anyone?</p>

<p>Has anybody heard from Columbia?</p>

<p>I saw two posts for Columbia today.on thegradcafe.com</p>

<p>Hi, for those who received e-mails from UCSD, when is their interview weekend?</p>

<p>Does anyone know what your chances are at getting accepted once you have an interview with Johns Hopkins for BME? And what types of questions do they ask?</p>

<p>My stats:
GPA: 3.98 (from a top 5 school in BME)
GRE: competitive, but not fantastic (they say on their website that they don't put too much emphasis on this anyways)
Research experience: 4 semesters, 4 conference abstracts, 1 oral presentation, no papers
LoR: 1 very strong (PI), 1 strong (prof), 1 very good (prof)</p>

<p>My_name: Which interview weekend are you going to for Hopkins? I'll be there the 13th, maybe I'll see you? Where else have you heard from?</p>

<p>(Copied from another thread)</p>

<p>Undergrad @ University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Applied for the most part to Bioengineering PhD programs.</p>

<p>Accepted: Boston University, Wash U, U Penn
Interviews: Stanford, Hopkins, Caltech, Berkeley, UW, Columbia, Duke
Haven't heard from: MIT EECS, Harvard HST, Cornell</p>

<p>It's going to be a really busy next couple of weeks - I'm pretty much gone for interviews from 2/19 to 3/15. I just hope HST will get back to me soon, I'm seeing my chances there start to ebb away...</p>

<p>fenguin: do you mind sharing the financial aid package that you received from WUSTL? They could only guarantee a one year fellowship for me.</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>I think I got the same package as you did. Mine was guaranteed from September 1, 2009 to August 31, 2010, with a note saying that "support for additional years is anticipated contingent upon satisfactory progress."</p>
