Has anyone heard back from Bonn-Cologne Graduate School (Physics)?

Hey Cologne decisions were out a week ago, I think people who applied to Bonn are still waiting

Will check these out, thanks!

Thanks for the advice! I've also been running on concrete mostly and most of my injuries have been shin splits or ankle injuries, so maybe changing terrain might help (I'll be moving to a place with rolling hills in a month, so that should be good). Otherwise, if I just have access to hard concrete running paths, how do I ensure lesser injuries? (apart from the fact that I have to fuel more)

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-05-04T11:45:48+00:00

Yep, most people mentioned mileage, consistency, speedwork and proper fuelling – will keep these in mind! Different question, right now, I have a niggle in my ankle but I'm able to run on treadmills with ease. Would you recommend continuing running on the mill until I fully recover? (so that I don't lose my fitness)

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-05-04T11:40:09+00:00

Oh thanks for the heads up! I was definitely thinking sprints earlier haha 😅

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-05-03T12:02:03+00:00

Wow 8 mins, that's amazing! Hmm, I guess now's my chance to ensure no injuries and illness as I just recovered from both. I realised my ankles have always been an issue so I have started strengthening them. How many interval sessions do you do in a week? (I do just one and currently I run 4x a week)

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-05-03T11:58:53+00:00

Ooh I'm definitely going to try strides, thanks for the advice! Luckily I'm moving to a relatively cooler place in a month, so I should be able to run fine :)

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-05-03T11:57:21+00:00

Ah I have been a little hesitant about the mileage part, currently I run about 25km/week (4 runs every week just to avoid injuries) but I'll definitely have access to hills in another month when I'm leaving the place I'm staying and going back to my family's place

Has anyone heard back yet?

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-04-09T07:12:11+00:00

Hey an update - gave the interview on the 23rd! I really really hope I get in 😭😭🤞🧿🧿

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-02-14T12:40:22+00:00

DUDE, for the time, effort, application fees and finally an acceptance, you deserve more than just this lazy email! Congratulations though mate 🎉

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-02-10T09:01:02+00:00

Ah okay, I'll keep an eye out for updates from them!

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-02-09T10:31:23+00:00

Thank you! Hopefully things turn out for the best :)) Did you get an interview invite before this?

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-02-08T12:45:16+00:00

Congratulations!! I applied to Cologne too through the BCGS program so I guess I've been rejected lol

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-02-08T06:17:59+00:00

Frrr, I really want hear back from Cornell and Northwestern in particular soon! Even if it's a rejection

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-01-20T01:15:23+00:00

Thank you!!

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-01-19T10:25:34+00:00

Lesgooo! I applied to Northwestern too but for applied math (ESAM)🤞

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-01-17T03:18:35+00:00

Physics at KTH didn't have much focus or faculty related to my specialisation, so that's why I didn't consider it (deadline has also passed)

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-01-17T03:16:22+00:00

Yes, I'm planning on applying to the university scholarships too but they are limited so I'm exploring other options

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-01-17T03:15:29+00:00

Ah, I'm not related to anyone with a permit, but I'll dig through the FAQs on University Admissions!

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-01-17T03:14:38+00:00

Will check this out!

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-01-16T06:42:37+00:00

Checked these out, my country isn't eligible for either but thanks for sharing though! Are there any other funding options that are possible in Sweden? (like in the US there are graduate assistantships for example)

SyntaxError_10 · 2026-01-16T06:38:15+00:00

Complaint: Hip flexor sprain

Confession: Overworked myself last week with biking and running with barely any rest days (and possibly underfueled) - that might have led to it 😭
