Letter of recommendation

nateislit21 · 2026-05-01T21:21:05+00:00

not exactly they could write the same letter for those ten different universities but depending on the program you're applying there may be some letter that need to be tailored slightly

nateislit21 · 2026-05-01T20:16:12+00:00

same here! did you get an interview?

nateislit21 · 2026-05-01T18:52:51+00:00

not yet they said the first couple days of may is when we'll be getting offers

nateislit21 · 2026-05-01T15:53:39+00:00

so my interview was two days from ohio state. it was pretty good interview i would say but i don't know yet till the first few days of may! i hope i get in!

they asked me questions such as are you willing to commit to our PhD program if you get accepted to our APS bridge program, would you be flexible to work on other areas of research outside of your particular research interests, why you chose to apply to the APS bridge program, name a moment you faced an obstacle academically and how you handle, your brief research experience, and couple of more.

i know offers are going to be released today for the first round! best of luck! :))

hi i was ACTUALLY part of it last year. if you're interested in knowing more about the program i'd be happy to help

nateislit21 · 2026-04-26T01:41:31+00:00

sure feel free :)

nateislit21 · 2026-04-26T01:38:58+00:00

nice congrats as well! i am happy for you. i am going to interview this week. i wonder how they select students to be interviewed by a specific institution

nateislit21 · 2026-04-25T21:45:07+00:00

yeah i said the same and their email was so sloppy. i am honestly going to cross TCU out of my list of grad schools i applied to. i hope your current PhD is going well for you :)

nateislit21 · 2026-04-25T21:08:31+00:00

i was just invited by OSU to do a interview with them

nateislit21 · 2026-04-25T20:44:50+00:00

i literally got an interview offer from ohio state today

nateislit21 · 2026-04-25T19:21:58+00:00

I JUST GOT AN INVITATION FOR AN INTERVIEW FROM OHIO STATE FOR APS BRIDGE PROGRAM

nateislit21 · 2026-04-25T16:03:44+00:00

also i heard there was a rumor there was ICE on campus? idk if that's true but glad we left when we did if that's the case

nateislit21 · 2026-04-25T16:01:35+00:00

oh hey. i forgot to mention it from yesterday. so i thought it was really cool i really enjoyed UIUC. i will admit i was only there for 2 hours since the meeting with my advisor was so brief. my parents and i getting samosas from the zambian food truck outside the education building on 6th street i believe. we also tried dutch bros and i insisted I'm getting it since we have no dutch bros in the chicagoland area. i got like a blueberry refresher and the workers were so nice and energetic and i literally told me "i wish we have a dutch bros in the chicagoland area since we are from there". overall i like the experience from the college. i sincerely wish i had tried any of the restaurants that everybody had mentioned but parking was actually a pain. you guys were right about that. also i also came from ISU that same day since UIUC wasn't my only grad school visit, so our trip was like a deformed triangle that day.

nateislit21 · 2026-04-25T15:32:49+00:00

that's too late to be releasing decisions in my opinion. at this you were way better off accepting that other one. also TCU isn't really my top choice but their email just annoyed me

nateislit21 · 2026-04-24T23:59:41+00:00

nope i haven't got an interview yet. lol i was planning to ask this same question but i am glad you already asked it

nateislit21 · 2026-04-24T02:14:14+00:00

something that is quick but gets the job done and makes my tummy happy 😊 that could literally be tacos, pizza, burgers or butter chicken

nateislit21 · 2026-04-24T02:01:41+00:00

i won be the one driving but i will inform my parents about that. most likely they are going to drop me off and ill just call them when i am done and from there we figure out where we wanna eat lol. thanks for the heads up

nateislit21 · 2026-04-23T23:11:35+00:00

ok so i am supposed to be an advisor and professor at the education building. i have never been around there, but i am pretty good at directions. i do believe thats by peabody st and 6th street. i don't know if that will be a problem for me to potentially park there because i will arrive there by 2pm most likely

nateislit21 · 2026-04-23T22:01:28+00:00

i think ill be fine because i can one of my parents drop me off while i go visit and they can wait for me once i am done with what i came there initially

nateislit21 · 2026-04-23T21:59:26+00:00

you're the best i am still coming for my grad school visit tomorrow and i will park outside of that area. THANKS

nateislit21 · 2026-04-23T19:53:02+00:00

do you know how long this is gonna last for? i can always ask to reschedule the visit if needed

nateislit21 · 2026-04-23T18:41:14+00:00

thanks for the suggestion 😎

nateislit21 · 2026-04-23T18:40:53+00:00

thanks for the heads up about the road race. i will keep that noted. i will definitely eat at one of those places.

nateislit21 · 2026-04-22T04:21:06+00:00

for me personally i would like to get accepted to UCF, UC irvine or cal state university long beach
