Thanks for sharing the information, exciting programs! Just out of curiosity, what is the historic acceptance rates for the research training program. While no previous experience is required to apply for the research program, I was curious about the most common work/educational background of successful applicants from previous cohorts.
Hi sulfadiazineportkey, Thanks for that question! We were incredibly grateful to have received ~800 applications for the current round of the program and were able to offer a spot to a final cohort of ~16 candidates. This means we are looking at an overall acceptance rate of 16/800= 2%.
Realizing that there is more interest than current capacity, we are looking forward to making parts of the curriculum more widely available for self-study in mid-April.
Generally, we weigh the test tasks very highly in our application process, and prior experience or any specific background is less important.
I hope this helps, and we hope to see your application.
