Did anyone participate in the Towson REU in 2022? What project did you work on and were you able to publish your results? The previous REU results were not posted on the website so I am asking here.

Posting this for past me who convinced themself they had no future in math research after stalking forums like these. Hang in there y’all, REUs are more competitive than grad programs.

Year: 3rd year
Institution: Top 20 for Math
GPA: 3.7, I got a lot of B's early on. Math is hard :?
Major: Pure Mathematics.
Research: 1 previous REU; 3 previous reading projects with a grad student and postdocs on differential and algebraic topology.
Coursework: (Undergrad): Real Analysis, Abstract Algebra, Differential Geometry, Topology, Combinatorics, Discrete Math, Algorithms
(Grad): Algebraic Topology 1+2, Riemmanian Geometry 1+2
Letters: Letter writers were my previous REU advisor (postdoc) which was probably strong and math faculty advisor (associate prof, not related to my research interests), probably strongish but filler mostly.
Misc: No competition experience. Switched from physics & applied math spring of 2nd year. It's never too late :)


Rutgers - Accepted
Baruch - Accepted
Chicago - Accepted
Michigan - ?? Presumed rejection
Georgia Tech - Offered interview, rescinded
UVA - Rejected
SUMRY - Ghosted but then got an email asking if I was still interested?
CMU SUMAI - Rescinded

I have not heard back yet. I emailed them a few days ago about my application status but never got a response. What project did you interview for? Mine was for the orderings of point sets project. Maybe the mentor for your project sent out rejections and mine didn't?

I interviewed for the Agent Based Models project, so your mentor is probably still finalizing the people working on their project.
