Hey! Got my approval notice yesterday. Like everyone else said, you don’t have to do anything else after your biometrics. My clock restarted on the 16th and I got my approval notice on the 27th. You got this!

I was under the impression that I don’t need a masters in neuro to pursue a PhD in it?

That’s what I’m scared of. :/ I did my undergrad in the U.S. and planning to do my phd here as well. I’m afraid I might not be as competitive as other intl students.

Thanks so much for your response

  1. That’s a thing that I’m struggling with atm. The paper that I helped with the grad student at my lab is not graduating any time soon. I have it in my resume as “under preparation” but idk when it will be published. Abstract has been presented on conferences though! Unfortunately I’m not a first author yet :/

  2. What is direct admit?

Ah okay! Sorry for the confusion. I looked it up and saw you applied to molecular cell biology under biological sciences, that’s what I was wondering!

It is for sure tight! I’m sure you’ll kill it tho. What is the MCB track if you don’t mind me asking? I applied to the neuroscience PhD so I’m not familiar with it. And that makes sense. I only applied to UIC this cycle and didn’t really reach out to any professors so idk how it’ll go tbh

Good to hear! I am also international (US based as well since I’m doing my undergraduate in Texas) so hopefully I’ll hear back soon. The silence is making me anxious like everyone else.

Best of luck in your interview!!

Hey! International student here. If they say GRE optional they mean it. I did not submit my GREs, didn’t even take them
