@jw874100, check inbox. Thanks!

To the poster below who had an interview from U Michigan Biostats program. My ID is: jw874100. You can send message to me. Thanks

Don't hold a M.S. degree. Applied to Ph.D. program and received an email said they would only accept students who had a M.S. degree in biostat or related areas comparable to their own.

To the poster below, kindly leave your e-mail I.D. as a reply so that we may be talk. I was interviewed for a Ph.D. position as well.

(Roadrunner here) -- As you can see in the results, UNC biostatistics has a rather extensive history of taking forever to get funding (say, late March), and while the results page doesn't mention it, there's at least one thread on the forums I looked at where someone just didn't get funding. I am assuming I didn't get funding for the time being, particular since I emailed about funding earlier this week and haven't heard anything back thus far. I'm not planning on continuing this conversation haphazardly in the results section, so message me on the forums if you want -- appropriately, my username is the genus of roadrunners (the actual animal, not the cartoon), which is easily googleable.

For those attending the event on Feb 14-15: I was not invited to this event but heard that it might be helpful for getting a funding. Can you please leave a post after attending the event? Share how the event was?

I got an acceptance via email on the 24th and an invitation to the visit day on the 14th-15th. My status online did not update until Tuesday, 02/05. I have not heard anything about funding either. I'm not sure if they admit folks without funding them, but I have heard that almost everyone in biostat gets funding.

Onsite interview on 2/1.

Thanks for the replies both of you. Do you guys know how big the class size is? Since it's already 3 of us who haven't heard about the funding, I'm kind of hoping it's just running a bit late. I think I saw about 2students who mentioned that they received 25K with the acceptance letter. Roderunner - may I ask if it's an individual visiting or a visiting event day thing?

Had Skype interview

Did anyone get a phone call interview from University of Michigan biostatistics program this year? If you got, when and what time?

I heard about a visit opportunity on February 14 and 15, but I got admitted Jan 22 (seemingly earlier than many others) so that's probably why people are hearing about later visits. I haven't heard anything about funding, and am kinda assuming (given that UNC is definitely my best acceptance thus far) that I'm an unfunded acceptance, although I emailed to ask if such things were decided yet or if I could start advocating for myself by talking to professors. -- Roadrunner

To whom asked about the funding of biostatistics phd in rutgers: the offer letter said I am on waiting list of financial support. I will highly probably decline the offer anyway.

To the poster below: I've received an email from a person in UNC ( I am not sure whether he's a professor or a student) about visiting event on March 29. Not heard of any funding yet.
