Notes
6 years industry research experience, 2 years academic research experience, 1 publication (3rd author), 1 conference presentation (march meeting) My to-be PI and the admissions chair emailed me on March 12 saying that I was on a 50 person waitlist. The chair said there were financial concerns and were cutting admissions (combination of high admission rate last year and federal funding). I followed up on 4/14 in the morning and heard from the chair around 10 pm MDT that I will not be admitted. I'm very disappointed because my PI and I had been working together for over 6 months developing a research plan. We got along well and I was excited to work on the project.
