Notes
A frustrating post-interview experience with a school far from my first choice. Interviewed in January but heard no decision until April after emailing on multiple occasions. Direct Admit method means that individual PIs can completely control interviews/acceptances/rejections into the program based on their lab's needs. Perhaps a fine system, but more transparency (and more standard practices across PIs) would go a long ways.
