Stanford University

Clinical Informatics Management, MS, Masters (F21)

Rejected via Website on 15 Mar 2021

Note

Was expecting it due to the extremely competitive nature of the MCiM program. One thing for applicants reading this in the future to consider (probably applies to any program actually) is that when applying to top-tier schools like Stanford, ignore the "we do a wholistic review" statement of the program because at the end of the day your GPA and GRE count the most, then the letters, followed by your CV/what you have done with your life thus far in terms of career & service to community. This doesn't mean that you shouldn't apply, but have realistic expectations and that there is a good chance your application will be rejected if you don't fit the typical Ivy candidate description. Always have back-ups in different tiered programs if you really want to pursue this or some graduate program.
