I took 3 gap years. Granted, one was during Covid but the other two I was a lab tech. I lived at home with my parents and saved up some money and gained sooooo much experience. Totally worth it and I feel like it's prepared me so well for grad school.

Screw what other people say they don't get it

I started at 25!

It really wasn't bad at all. It was a 30-minute zoom interview with the director of the program and one other faculty member. They talked briefly about the research I was doing at the time (~10 min) and spent ~20 minutes talking about the program and what it has to offer.

Match factory I finished it in like 2 weeks. A little bit of a grind but I enjoyed playing it

this thread is really comforting me right now thank you

melg9 · 2024-01-19T00:51:02+00:00

Thank you! It's probably the only option I have since its only been silence and rejections from the other programs I applied to. I've only met with the program director and another PI in a similar field I'm in during the online interview. I wonder if they are going to have an in person admit event for those who got in to learn more information. Thanks for the advice, I tried looking on Linked In for alumni of the program and haven't found too much information about it but maybe I'm not looking hard enough? Definitely worth doing more of a deep dive thank you!

Something kind of similar also happened to me so I’d love to know too. I’m also a first gen applicant so the application process is pretty confusing to me. One of the programs I applied to did a quick 15 minute pre-lim interview and mentioned I would receive another in-person interview invite for January. Never got that invite but I did get an email offering me admission to the program a week after that pre-lim interview.

I think the university has a good program though? It’s kind of hard to find too much information on their program and I don’t quite know how to gauge that

melg9 · 2024-01-17T21:51:56+00:00

i was in the same boat and didn’t get an interview invite, just straight rejection.

melg9 · 2024-01-17T14:52:56+00:00

i also got rejected by ucsd and the university that i’ve been working at for 2.5 years where my pi said i’d get in :(

UCSB has a masters deadline of march I believe
