Simons Research Program 2016

let’s give it a few more days

@athenanv13 if u have already sent the email, would u mind letting us know what they told u?? thanks

I haven’t gotten an email…I sent mine in the mail the day of and they could’ve not received it (and they’re probably also busy). Still I’m worried

@cougar123 I’m going to send it out Monday afternoon if I don’t get it by then and yes, I will let you know what they say. I’m so worried about it.

just received the email

Me too^ :smiley:

I just receive the confirmation THANK GOD

Got my confirmation :slight_smile:

same here

Thank goodness!!! Got my confirmation :smiley: good luck to all of us!!!

Do most of Simons applicants also apply to other programs?
Do they end up with multiple offers? If so, what do they end up choosing?

@4beardolls i think most applicants apply to more than one program cause simons is really tough to get into

I think if an applicant can get into simons, then he or she could get into a lot of other programs

hope that helps

personally if i got in i would accept in a heartbeat

I’d go so fast unless I got into RSI first (in which case I’d probably rescind all my other program apps). But that will never happen LMAO

This might be a more amateur question, but what exactly should you include in a email to the professor (asking for lab placement)? A resume, achievements, essay…?

I just emailed them saying that I was interested in working in his/her lab, and if they had space available I could send them my resume.

thanks ^. is it too late to start asking mentors :confused:

asking for*

nope you should be fine… I’m starting now as well and the deadline for sending in mentor agreements is early March

ok thanks @schoolisfun3

do you know how much it helps to get a mentor send in an email?
