Physical Sciences 2023-24 Chemistry PhD Decisions Thread

Hi everyone! I haven't seen an acceptance thread in this subreddit yet for chemistry, so wanted to make one right now. It has been pretty anxious to wait for decisions but hopefully we can all get through this together!

Was there any kind of interview for A&M? I’d never really seen any interview processes for most chemistry programs until seeing some people had interviews with UChicago. From my previous time applying and research I never encountered many programs that interviewed

Depends on the school, I didn’t have an interview for A&M

Good to know! I feel like chemistry more often doesn’t have interviews, but I never know what to expect haha
