No interview & a short rejection notification. I guess they prefer applicants with a strong quantitative background. Anyway, I'm going to a great Ph.D. program instead.

SUPER excited about this. Thought I did okay in the interview but I am glad they liked my performance. I had two semesters of biomedical research. One in EKG and one in live frogs. GPA 3.86/4.0. Best of luck to all future applicants.

No biggy-- already got into two dream programs. I applied here super last minute, didn't attend any info sessions or submit a GRE. Just was curious what would happen. Don't be like me if you actually want to get in.

Thought I had a really strong SOP and solid LORs but I have a mediocre GPA and did not submit any GRE scores. Disappointed but truly not surprised!

GPA 3.84

I'm beyond excited. I'm still in disbelief. Nothing but God opened the door for me. I did not take the GRE. I'm in my final year of undergrad; my current GPA is 3.84. I had three strong letters of recommendation, one from a Harvard Professor. I've been the head of a company for the past thirteen years, and I have extensive leadership and volunteer experience.

I still find it very hard to believe but I am sure the strengths of my application came from the LOR and SOP.
