E-mailed the coordinator about the status, got another email with rejection.

At least I got into Cornell and Michigan already!

Generic email. It was my top choice. expected at least a "better" rejection letter given that hefty $140 app fee 🙄

Not surprised at all!

Canadian with Canadian BSc and MSc. Rejected from the UC Berkeley/UCSF joint bioengineering program.

Generic rejection letter, over 680 applications, under 10% accepted.

Hi buddy below, I have been anxious for the past few days. Not sure about UCB but UCSF has pretty low funding for international students. This year's funding might also be more limited due to covid. I'm still waiting too. Hang in there!

Contacted for informal interviews by POIs.

Notified by faculty members rather than the program director. Feels like for Penn BioE this year faculty members are conducting individual interviews with students they are interested in, so no worries if you haven't been contacted yet; it might still be on the way.

So far I have not received any email notifications from the Bioengineering program, do you know if the notifications are being made individually? In addition, the department indicates that the notifications will be made in early March.

Sooooo EXCITED!! 3.5 yrs research experience and 4 strong RLs.

Me and friends did not receive any emails from Stanford BioE. I'm probably sure that the guy below me is trolling. The fish is caught. I didn't even sleep well last night. (smile)
