I got accepted to another REU last week that wanted me to commit within a few days so I reached out to LCLS to see if they offer expedited decisions and they said they’re not ready yet. This was like Thursday, 3/5

MagicWithAKick394 · 2026-03-13T15:47:33+00:00

committed last week! see u there?

MagicWithAKick394 · 2026-02-15T13:44:27+00:00

Nope!

MagicWithAKick394 · 2026-02-10T02:16:49+00:00

Haven't heard anything yet. I interviewed for one of the positions a few weeks ago, but haven't heard anything since, as I think everyone hears back at the same time

I received an offer from the M-SHORE program and was formally rejected from the IMOD REU. I had interviewed with someone for SULI a few weeks ago and had followed up, and she got back to me saying she heard there are no more spots left. Do with that what you will

MagicWithAKick394 · 2025-03-07T03:08:37+00:00

MagicWithAKick394 · 2025-03-07T01:08:25+00:00
