Summer Research Application and Acceptance Thread (SPUR, SURF, SURP, SIP, AMGEN, LA etc.) 2021

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Has anyone heard from the Fred Hutch SURP? Previously on their website it said that accepted students would be notified between mid and late February, but this is no longer there. I was wondering if this means they have already notified acceptance applicants and they just don't notify everyone else? Thanks

I emailed them and they said that they are behind on evaluating apps. Notifs will be made in the next few weeks, no specific date unfortunately tho
 
Has anyone heard from Umich FCVC-SURF? It says decisions are rolling out from late February to the end of March

I feel like all these programs are behind on emails or not accepting many...

Has anyone heard back from the Johns Hopkins Nanobio REU or the VINSE REU program at Vanderbilt? I also applied to many programs through the Leadership Alliance, but I have not heard anything back yet :/

Edit: VINSE emailed me this morning stating that they were not sure about the status of the program in general for this summer, did anyone else get that email?

Congratulations!
 
Has anyone heard from Vanderbilt UCRIP and VSSA?
I applied UCRIP too, I emailed them a couple weeks ago and they said they still didn’t know whether they could host the program yet so they don’t have any decisions 🙁
 
Has more than that one person heard back from Mayo yet?
 
Will be participating in Hopkins SIP. My program sent acceptances out.

I think this summer I will be attending UTMB for their summer research program
 
Has anyone heard from University of Cincinnati programs like the grad one, neuro, or children’s?
I heard back from the pharmacology SURF at UC in early feb! I also applied to children's, but never received anything. Not sure if that was because I ranked that application second on the data base.

Got an email saying Baylor SMART decisions will come out in the next two weeks
Did they send an email to all applicants or did you email them with a question and they responded with that?
 
I contacted my other top choices because MUSC wants a decision by March 9th. All I received was an email from UAB SIBS saying that they received over 400+ applications so they are not able to provide an expedited decision for me and that acceptances will be out by March 26th. So unless I receive any other decisions by Monday I will be accepting the MUSC SURP offer. My mentor's research closely aligns with my interests so I am excited! Good luck to all who have applied!
 
Waitlisted to Utah SPUR. That’s was expected considering I applied to more engineering-based projects as a Biology major.
 
Anyone heard back from Leadership Alliance (specifically NYU)? I saw on the website they started sending decisions mid February but haven’t heard of anyone getting a decision from NYU yet.
 
Hi all! I recently got into FCVC at UMich. I applied to a bunch of places similar to yours. Got rejected by DAAD and SURE Oklahoma so far, but still have like 12 that haven't responded yet.
FCVC wants me to respond by this Thursday if I am accepting the offer. Not sure what to do.
Is this a good program? Anyone had experience with it?

Hi, first of all, congrats! I applied to Umich FCVC as well but haven't heard back : ( When did you hear back from them if you don't mind sharing? Thank you!
