mathgrad Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Dear Applicants Pure Mathematics, Since we all are mainly interested about decision of the selection committee of the Math department and there is not much correlation between between the deadlines by which different departments make decisions,I decided to start a new thread.Please post news about your admission status in various universities so far in this topic.Also,if you have some news(or a hint) about decisions in general,do not hesitate to post it. Thanks in advance, Mathgrad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zw849 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 From what I know, MIT, Princeton, Berkeley, UChicago, Brown, Northwestern are all out. To know your status there, just email the grad coordinator. I guess it's better to have no false hopes there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
math85 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Hi! I haven't heard anything from Brown or Northwestern, so I guess I'm rejected by now :rolleyes:... Do you know anything about the Yale admissions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathgrad Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 All accepted and waitlisted people for Brown Math program have been communicated with.As for Northwestern,the grad chairman wants to be politically correct and is not going to OFFICIALLY decline admission to anybody before April 15,though decisions have already been made.For the uninitiated,there is something call thegradcafe.com where people post their results.Since there are no entries for Yale in 2008,it's my guess that the results may or be out yet.(can't say for sure,however,as the same thing is true for NW,but hardly anybody has posted anything.)

mathgrad Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 Yes,I must also add that Columbia and U Penn results are out,though they seem to be having a policy of not notifying rejected people.UCLA seems to more or less have made decisions too.

zw849 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 There is a long run to April 15th yet, admissions are still happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathgrad Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 One effective way to know your results is to email the graduate chairman of the Mathematics department,if you you can manage to find who he/she is(usually,it is given on the webpage of the department.).The secretaries are informed somewhat later,I think.If the gradchair doesn't reply to your mail within 24 hours,email a prof of the math dept,he will forward it to the gradchair and you will get a reply within 2 hours.

Ginku Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I spoke to the Columbia Math Dept Admissions coordinator in person. He showed me the list of 52 candidates who have been admitted. Every1 in has been emailed. U Chicago on the other hand has sent postal rejections. But some people have not received rejections yet. I think the explanation is that they have made 3 piles: accept, reject and wait&watch. What say? :hmm: Who has info on North Western?

mathgrad Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 Northwestern will not OFFICIALLY reject anybody before April 15 because it offers admission on a rolling basis.But decisions have more or less been made,I think.Just email Prof.Zaslow and find out.

happyentropy Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I got an offer from NYU yesterday. Anyone hear anything from (or about) Stanford? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zw849 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Hey happyentropy, the offer from NYU was with or without financial aid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathgrad Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 Congrats,Happyentropy!From thegradcafe,it seems that Stanford results are not out yet.Once again,anybody there who has been selected in Brown but not going there?

math85 Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Has anyone been admitted to UW-Madison? I received an email several days ago which said financial info would come soon, but it hasn't arrived yet... Has anyone received details on financial aid from Madison?

mathgrad Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 2008 Somebody was told that he/she has been admitted to Wisconsin with TAship on 22nd Feb via email.BTW,I withdraw my irresponsible conclusions of the results of Stanford not being out as not everybody puts up his/her results on gradcafe.

happyentropy Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 The offer from NYU was with the McCracken Fellowship. The email said they only initially accepted 12 people with funding, but have a large "accepted, waitlisted for funding" list in case some decline their offers. FWIW I think I'm declining in favor of U. Chicago at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathgrad Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 2008 Well Math85,somebody seems to have been waitlisted for Yale today. I recommend everybody to visit this site: thegradcafe.com and click on results. Lots of people are posting the status of their application there.

happyentropy Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Math85, I got an informal offer by email from Madison on the 15th and haven't heard any details since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWG Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Hi Guys. For Columbia, I am surprised that they admitt 52 ppl, seems like in the past 2 yrs Columbia has only less than 10 first year?? For NYU, Did they emailed the large waitlist ppl? Should I assume I am out? I emailed the grad coordinator...no reply again, Who is the admission chair?
