I do not anticipate any major changes in how graduate programs approach admissions. Funding cuts will likely reduce slots but not what the admission committee is looking for in strong candidates. -Personal and research statements remain critically importantā>articulate your.

One of the hardest things to accept is how many colleagues stay silent. Not because they donāt agree or donāt want to help, but because speaking up could cost them a grant, a title, or a seat at some table. Some even echo university administration talking lines, knowing full.

Very curious to see this play out. To be honest, Iāve never submitted more than six NIH applications in a single year myself, so the proposed cap seems reasonable from a practical standpoint. Will applicants have access to an AI screening portal prior to submission to gauge.
