"it is incredibly competitive to come here.  We have very little funding for non-US citizens, and only a couple of people out of many hundreds of applicants can be accepted each year.There is nothing much that individual faculty members can do, because
we make it a rule that individual faculty cannot "buy" grad students
interested in their fields, no matter how much grant funding they have."
(Caltech)

"The graduate program in Immunobiology funds American US students or those students with green cards through US government grants.  Unfortunately there aren't any grants for foreign students. "(YALE)

对我们外国人来说,好多生命科学专业要不象yale干脆没有奖学金,要不就象Caltech机会少的可怜,难呀!差点的学校又不愿意去.一定程度上说,也许我们根本没有挑肥拣瘦的资格.(牛人除外喽)
GOOD LUCK TO EVERY GTER!

I must say, the bio department in Caltech has aboundant fund. But usually the competition is so serious that without deep academic background,  the chance is almost to zero

saintman,i think you are studying in USA now.Would you like to give me any information about application for Immunology program of Top50 ?which univeristies do relatively welcome  Chinese?
Thanks in advance.

我们校一研究生jj 同时收到了harvard ,yale  immuno的offer ,她gg去年受到了yale immuno的offer ,但据之

看来要想出去，只有先成为牛人啦！
