Summer Research Program Acceptance Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I only recently heard back from the schools I applied to (still no news from the Wisconsin schools+Yale)


Accepted: Wash U BioMedRAP, Mayo SURF

Denied: Princeton, U of I SUMR

Pending: U Wisc. Madison, Med College of Wisc., Yale

Programs cancelled: U Chicago, Miller
 
How did you guys find out about these programs ? Is there a website ?

And Bump !
 
Accepted (going to) - NIH SIP
Accepted (withdrew) - Einstein SURP, MIT Amgen, Columbia Amgen, Cornell Travelers
Rejected - Princeton (didn't really qualify), Cold Spring Harbor URP (very likely, didn't hear anything back), Steamboat Scholars, Columbia REU

Looks like some people got some great acceptances
 
Must have been rejected from Einstein SURP then.

I emailed about Cold Spring Harbor in early Feb and I got rejected. It was picking 25/900 I think it was. Absolutely ridiculous.
 
isnt on-campus housing usually free in these programs?
and aren't stipends usually like $2,000-$4,000?

Yes and yes! It's definitely an incredible way to spend your summer, whether you are interested in pursuing a MD or PhD.
 
I'm going to do the Hopkins Pulmonary/Critical Care SIP. Anyone else joining me in Baltimore this summer?
 
CalTech SURF!

But will probably turn it down to continue my research in my current lab.
 
Has anyone heard from NYU HJD Musculoskeletal Summer Research Program? They were supposed to email all applicants by 4/15 but I haven't gotten anything yet...
 
UIowa Immunology for me this summer. Did Mayo's SURF program last summer, it was an amazing experience. 👍
 
Huntington Medical Research Institute SSP, but they give no pay.

Hopefully I can get a paid research position, if not I'm going to take up another job offer.
 
Applied to Vanderbilt URP and Case Western BioMED RP, rejected from both. (did not get any replies)

I emailed them last week..they said the selection committee would meet in the middle of this week. They didn't meet earlier because of grant deadlines or whatever. Soo i guess we'll be hearing next week
 
Waiting on a response from the decision committee at University of Toronto - UTEA.
 
NIH SIP (NIEHS, bioinformatics) - Applied 28 Feb, Application Complete 13 March, Accepted 16 April. (Email)

I got an email from the PI followed about a day later by email from the coordinator. I didn't apply to any programs outside the NIH. I was getting pretty concerned until I got my acceptance this week!

I emailed a few researchers, and also one contacted me after searching the database. The internship I got was one of the researchers I contacted, though.

Start sending mails to PIs as soon as your application is complete... I got a lot of "sorry, we already picked our summer student" mails from people who would have been some of my top choices. I did get my 3rd choice lab, though, so it worked out okay in the end.
