No interview; 3.91 GPA (BS in Neuroscience) from prominent R1. 5 peer-reviewed pubs (1 first-author) in well respected, relevant journals (Impact Factors ~5). Three years full-time research plus 1/2 years undergrad research. Was accepted to significantly higher ranked programs so not upset, just confused? Tufts syndrome?

Grad program administrator responded after two weeks to say that all interview invited had been sent :(

So excited!!!

Totally expected - applied to people that weren't taking students/weren't doing the research I was really interested in. No word until an email saying to check application status in website portal.

TTPB: Are you from the first interview weekend?

It seemed like a generic e-mail!

TTPB: I had to email the program coordinator to ask for my status! I assume all definite acceptances and rejections have gone out, so those who haven't been contacted are on the waitlist.

TTPB: Did you have to email them to get your waitlist decisions, or did they notify you via email? I haven't received an acceptance or rejection yet. Thanks!

I am on the waitlist for UMN, and this is my only hope this year. I really like this GPN program and I have struggled for this many years. If you are admitted or you are also on the waitlist but you also have other offers from other universities. Would you pls reject UMN as soon as you can? It is really a tough year. I hope we all have great results. Thank you so much!
