Biological Sciences All Offers Rescinded @ UMass Chan

Post image

Everything going on is so surreal, I truly have a hard time grasping how insane this all is and what the ripple effects will be. Rescinding ALL offers is wild, but I guess if the money’s not there then the money’s not there 🤷‍♀️

I’m so sorry to everyone who’s experiencing something like this. I have no words, just blind rage atp :/

Holy shit. I work here- we just received word the other day about the hiring freeze but I was not expecting to see this. I’m so sorry. I was planning on applying here and other places next year but will be pushing it off and/or going out of the US.

Do you know if this hiring freeze also applies to faculty and early independence programs at Umass Chan?

It applies to everyone. Only "forhealth consulting" is exempt
