Graduate School Admission Results

Invited to university by February 20

Not too surprised but still sad

Email to check application portal at 6:20 AM

+2 years of lab experience, top public school for undergrad, 1 paper

1.5 Years of research experience; 4.0 Graduate GPA; 2 pending publications; email notification that there was an update to the portal. I had written what I thought was an amazing personal statement. I truly don't believe their admissions in holistic. Several years of research experience and connections to UW are always #1.

Emailed by chair of admissions committee!

ignore acceptance. people who went to the first interview weekend, how was it?

received email notifying of update to application status, logged in to see rejection 4 yrs of industry research experience, 2 publications, 3 published conference abstracts, 1 national conference poster presentation

MSc in Biology with Concentration in Bioinformatics (GPA: 3.56); 3 Research Acknowledgements; 2 Pre-Clinical Research Organization Internships; Non-traditional Applicant

Holding a Master's degree in computational biology with a 4.0 GPA from a top 10 university and having two years of undergraduate research plus 2.5 years in graduate school. I have four publications: two as co-first author and two as second author, all with impact factors greater than 10. Additionally, I have a first-author paper under review at Cell. As a permanent resident of the US, I also see a rejection faced by another applicant who had an NIH fellowship. This makes me question the criteria for interview selection for this program. It's ridiculous; who gets the interview? Only the in-state applicants?

2 years of full time master's research, 1 year of undergraduate research, and 1.5 years part time research at an unrelated field. 2 publications, 2 oral presentations at conferences and a poster presentation. NIH fellow, GRFP applicant. Seems like a very competitive program, good luck to everyone and congrats to those chosen!
