US PhD Bio/biomedical/lifesciences international interviews & acceptances fall 2011

<p>anybody heard from harvard SEAS engineering sciences (bioengineering) yet?</p>

<p>Accepted to MSSM and UVM! Wow!! :slight_smile:
MSSM was one of my top choices!
For those who are waiting o hear from MSSM it seems that they are still calling. They had 4 interview dates so far and there will be 8-10. The interviews are every monday-tuesday and they invite you 1-2 weeks before the interview date.</p>

<p>Best of luck!</p>

<p>Finally!!! a Phone interview invite to University of Illiniois,Urbana-Champaign: Cell and Developmental Biology Program.</p>

<p>@fallbiomed2011: yeah man, that’s great!! ;)</p>

<p>thanks ash…have an interview at Duke-NUS,Singapore to attend now.</p>

<p>hi.
I am an international student.</p>

<p>i applied to the cellular biology program at University of Georgia, Athens and interviewed via phone 3 weeks back. have not heard back from them. Do i e-mail the grad school and find out?
the ohter school where i got interviewed via skype (with a potential PI) was IUSM - IBMG program, that was a coupla days back. </p>

<p>How long do you think i wait before i e-mail and find out about their decision?</p>

<p>reject from rockefeller via regular mail and acceptance from NYU. what a day…</p>

<p>Acceptance: Molecular Biology-University of Utah. (Email)
Rejection: MCB-UIUC (Email), IBGP-UPitt (snail mail).
Interview: GSBS-UTHSC/MD Anderson (Phone)</p>

<p>rejected: UPitt and Rockefeller (Postals) too</p>

<p>@mclouis, do you know if NYU is still sending interview invitations?</p>

<p>@Immunol: I just know they are not done interviewing. they will still interview some international applicants on 10 Mar in Shanghai.</p>

<p>has any one heard from UMass medical school, worcester?</p>

<p>Emailed UTsouthwestern. No formal decision yet. However, they made it clear that it is almost certainly gonna be a rejection.</p>

<p>@mclouis
Thanks! Unfortunately, I’m not from Shangai… hehe</p>

<p>hi humarti, are you international?. why do you think the mail from UTSW suggested a forthcoming rejection?
Im still hoping for an acceptance from UTSW.</p>

<p>Accepted to Purdue PULSe, a week after Stanford rejection letter came in the mail. Oh well, keep those coming, and good luck to everyone!</p>

<p>@fallbiomed2011
UTSW reply was that my application is reviewed and is currently in the HOLD category. However, It is very unlikely that we will be able to offer you a position.
Yes I am international. I am not sure if they are done sending acceptance though.</p>

<p>humarti…that seems like a waitlist that may never move.</p>

<p>Hi ashmaniac…did your acceptance mail from UTSW tell when your supposed to a make decision by.</p>

<p>Hi fallbiomed2011,</p>

<p>the “deadline” for sending regrets or acceptance is April 15, the same as for most institutions. I’m not sure if they are done sending admission letters. I saw internationals being accepted (on Grad Cafe) long before I received my email… I guess they have rolling admissions. would UTSW be your top choice?</p>

<p>Got acceptance from DUKE </p>

<p>@graddreams,
I believe they would mention when you’d know their decision during interview or you could have asked too. If they told you already, you dont have to worry until their said date unless you want to hear the same reply twice. </p>

<p>Good luck to everyone. Our journey is one and half month to go!</p>

<p>hi ash…i think the last day they send admissions email may be mar1…after that its only rejections so my time is running out. UTSW is my top choice.</p>
