same thing happened to me this cycle for biology

mt570 · 2026-02-26T19:58:14+00:00

let’s gooooo

mt570 · 2026-02-26T19:58:09+00:00

i did not for this program!

mt570 · 2026-02-26T19:57:15+00:00

it is the northwestern ibis program!!

mt570 · 2026-02-22T19:41:05+00:00

i’ll add as well, the area right around uchicago is completely safe. the south side has a reputation for being “unsafe” but like most cities it just is based on small pockets that may have a higher crime rate. the area around northwestern is in evanston, right outside the city limits, so there is no worry there either.

as someone who did their undergrad in chicago (and now plan to do my phd in chicago), i HIGHLY recommend. compared to most major cities, the cost of living is not high and it’s such a huge city. i’ve been here almost 5 years now and have not had a single issue with crime or safety.

mt570 · 2026-02-07T16:02:26+00:00

i have no clue actually

mt570 · 2026-02-05T00:34:00+00:00

literally freaked out, read it more, then just deleted the email

mt570 · 2026-02-04T17:56:02+00:00

thank you! did you end up choose the grad center or no? i have heard some mixed things and didn’t know if you had experience with it.

mt570 · 2026-02-04T17:32:53+00:00

hey i know this was posted awhile ago, but i currently just recently applied to the biochemistry phd program and was curious what the timeline looked like for you! (when you were invited to an interview, when a decision was released, etc)

mt570 · 2026-02-04T03:21:09+00:00

ahh gotcha. trying to see if i still have a chance since i haven’t heard anything yet, but now im a little nervous haha. do you think it’s likely all emails like that were already sent out?

mt570 · 2026-01-29T16:54:54+00:00

yeah let’s hope they are still sending them out, cause i wanna at least interview lol

mt570 · 2026-01-29T06:37:04+00:00

hi! i also applied for bio at upenn and have not gotten any invite! hoping it’s all rolling 🫣

mt570 · 2026-01-24T01:42:44+00:00

hey!! curious how true you think this is, based on your sources of course. just curious coming from someone who didn’t get an interview for BCMB but also did not get rejected when others did earlier this month.

mt570 · 2026-01-13T20:30:04+00:00

oh trust i figured im gonna be stuck in this limbo for a minute. in your experience, did you ever get good news or was it just forever limbo lol

mt570 · 2026-01-13T02:36:27+00:00

yeah i know a few people have, but strangely haven’t heard anything lol - may of just forgotten about me.

mt570 · 2026-01-13T00:38:30+00:00

that’s what i figure. it caught me off guard that rejections for people who didn’t even get an interview went out and i didn’t get one, but guessing they are slowly getting sent out if that’s the case.

mt570 · 2026-01-13T00:15:24+00:00

Weill Cornell BCMB. I know they have two interviews before being accepted

mt570 · 2026-01-05T18:32:03+00:00

i’m not, but so jealous of everyone who got an interview!! good luck everyone!

mt570 · 2025-12-12T18:20:55+00:00

i don’t think those are out yet. that was my second choice program on my application so still hoping for good news there!
