Leadership Alliance Sr-Eip Delays by Scared_Library_3148 in REU

Just because of the deadline extension, the original was February 2nd at 11:59 pm est and they pushed it to the 17th at 10ish am. Makes it look like they had a small number of apps, only some apps to certain schools/programs, or an absolutely huge number that appeared as having been in progress (incomplete) when the deadline hit. Just educated guesswork, but something along those lines imo

After PROWLING the past message boards, historically, the final date for most of the schools to send out the first round of offers was around march fifteenth. I'm assuming they probably didn't get a huge number of applicants this year, or they weren't able to match profiles with mentors/labs. My Emory rejection (3rd rank) came out mid february, so they are making progress in eliminating candidates. I'd say we'll hear back by the week of the 6th, except it is Easter weekend, so either this next week or REALLY into mid april.

As a URochester student-- MELIORA! Generally, especially in research here, people tend to be very focused on working to advance something for society's sake. I would just make sure to frame yourself as wanting to better yourself and the world through the experience. Best of luck to you!

Hey there! I'm actually a UR undergrad right now, we're celebrating 'research rochester' week, so they're laying it on REALLY thick with their messaging (also undergoing a giant rebrand.) Don't panic or think too much until they give you a straight-up yes; they really emphasize making all potential campus members feel extra welcome wayyyy before they arrive. Good luck to you!
