Email from PI mentioned in SOP asking for interview

Formal interview invite! Notified that 3 faculty members (who were also CC'd in the email) would be reaching out for separate interviews over the next 2 weeks. Submitted my GRE scores, 6 yrs of total research experience in bioengineering, and 2 publications (1 second author, 1 first author in progress). One of my top choice programs - so excited!!

A prospective advisor contacted me for an interview. A week later, got an email invitation for a virtual recruitment event.

Formal invite to the Jan 26-28 virtual visit/interview session

I had 2 years of lab work experience post-undergrad and I think that really helped! Very excited!

Have a master's in BME from CMU, 4 publications, 2 being first author papers, 10 conference presentations

Any updates from Case Western BME program? Has anyone received an interview invitation?

After conducting three virtual interviews this past week (along with attending the virtual visit on Jan. 14th), I received an invitation for an in-person visit/interviews today. Full-ride undergraduate academic scholarship, 3 years of research lab experience, multiple presentations and publications--including one first authorship.

Did undergrad at UT as well
