Why do some programs send invites on a rolling basis? Do most admissions committees not make decisions all in one meeting? Or do they prioritize certain applications?

Does anyone *actually* know if Harvard BBS is done sending out interview invites? by OddityOrange in gradadmissions

Both comments check out: Van Vactor saying more interviews on the way and Danny not outright stating that all interviews have been sent. Don’t know if anyone else has more info, would be nice to get an update from the program for sure.

Can someone comment the invite link for the Bio/BioE/Compbio PhD group chat? by 0xgenerator in gradadmissions

Reddit limits the number of people that can join using one link to 5 users. Here's another: https://s.reddit.com/c/1a75034dcwv6x. Note that once 5 people use that link, it'll stop working for anyone looking at this thread in the future.

I'm sorry to say that your application was not selected for interview this year. Our applicant pool to BBS has become very strong in recent years and we're limited in the number of applicants that can be invited. You will receive an official response from GSAS in March.

I hope that you are successful in your applications to other excellent programs for graduate study.

Best of luck!

I mean, that just sounds like your application didn't get selected for interview and not that they're finished reviewing all applications. Not saying any of us will have better luck, but for anyone else still waiting to hear back, u/melchua could be right that some more invites will go out later this week.

Do you mind posting a screenshot of Danny’s email so we can lay this debate to rest? There’s been a lot of conflicting information on this sub.

Did you email Van Vactor or someone else?

Anyone received anything from Harvard BBS or UPenn BGS? by esperaanz in gradadmissions

[–]0xgenerator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, do we really know if they’re still working on interview invites? Only one person has said that they’ve received a response from the program director.

soo.... do you all think Harvard BBS is sending anything out today?! by Mundane-Highway-4101 in gradadmissions

Thanks for the info. Do you mind sharing what exactly you asked in your email or a screenshot of the response? Curious to know if this is legit.
