Acceptance notifications cont.

As promised on the website, we will notify students by Friday, May 1. Once all offers are accepted, I will post to the blog that the application process is closed. If in the next week you have more specific questions, don't hesitate to drop me an email (reuga@pdx.edu). Remember, I am only on campus Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays so give me a few hours to respond.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Acceptance notification

Many students are beginning to inquire about the status of their application. As the website (www.reu.pdx.edu) mentions, notifications will be sent no later than May 1. I predict that I will be able to notify students much sooner than that, perhaps by next Friday, April 24 (target date ONLY).

Here is how the process will work:

(1) I will send an acceptance notification via email;
(2) Those students will need to confirm their interest in the program;
(3) Once all selected participants have confirmed their interest, I will post to the blog that the application process is complete.

Again, thank you so much for your interest in the program. Everyone who applied did an excellent job preparing their materials. Do not hesitate to contact me with questions or concerns. I will try to respond in a timely manner.

My schedule

I have received quite a number of emails recently asking about applications. Because I am a graduate assistant, I only work 20 hours per week. I will respond to each request, but it may take me a few days, as I am only on campus Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.

Thanks for your patience!

Applications DUE TODAY

First of all, I would like to thank everyone for their interest in the REU program at Portland State. You all are extremely talented and motivated students!

Before I left the office today, I answered all emails requesting information. If you are wondering about your application, please do not hesitate to email me. I am more than happy to make sure that I have received all required materials: reuga@pdx.edu.

The review process will begin Monday, April 6. As soon as decisions are made, I will send out notices.

Thank you again for your interest.
