BC one-way interview out (For finance)

I haven't gotten anything. It seems REALLY early compared to previous years so I'm quite suspicious...

Can anyone confirm Columbia admissions? I saw one on grad cafe

Any news about finance phd interviews from MIT Sloan, Columbia and Stanford?

I guess so - I applied to Econ PhD but no news here

Nortwestern angry rejection on GC: a troll, am I right? (they say master's, Northwestern does not offer a master in Econ so I'm quite confused)

Not yet. Usually they release results in the last week of February.

Booth Econ interviews? Any news?

Can’t imagine it’s what anyone is looking for/cares about, but I heard back from Clemson (including funding) 8 days after submitting materials, so back on December 18th

Confirmed HBS and booth finance are out

Can anyone confirm if Booth Finance interviews are out?

Can anybody confirm HBS Business Economics interviews on Gradcafe comment section?

It seems you can check your admission status for OSU in their portal

I might be wrong because I don't know their usual timeline, but I think they might have just started reviewing applications. I am saying this because I emailed them my updated transcript a month ago, and I just got a reply today.

This is nice. I heard something about BU since they suspended some PhD programs for this cohort due to this (sadly), but I didn't know the same was going on in other universities.

Hi all, I am torn between taking Linear Algebra II and Introduction to Stochastic Processes in Spring, and would like to receive some guidance on the matter. I took Linear Algebra I during my undergrad for credits and have passed the modules but did not receive a letter grade in my transcript (it is still reflected as taken for credits nonetheless), and was wondering if I should take the Linear Algebra II course as a way to compensate for the module. My concern is that the course is said to emphasize on proofs, covering topics like Iwasawa Decomposition, Gram-Schmidt Riesz representation theorem, Spectral Theorem, Cayley-Hamilton theorem, and Jordan block decomposition, and I heard from some posts that the Linear Algebra II is not needed beyond Linear Algebra I. As such, I am not sure if this is a good signal or would the Economics PhD admission committees find the module irrelevant. On the other hand, I understand the Stochastic Processes intro course is a relevant module, at least based on the list of AEA's recommended modules. Some of the topics covered include Markov chains, branching processes, Poisson processes, birth and death processes, Brownian motion, martingales, introduction to stochastic integrals, and their applications. I am wondering which module would you recommend to prep for my Economics PhD applications later this year? Thank you in advance, appreciate your time and advice!

Has anyone been invited to the Wharton Applied Econ interview?

@TheAM I know this is the current pay but I think there is a good chance it goes up substantially by the next academic year (hopefully admits would know by April 15) because many programs have been made to greatly raise funding in response to grad student/worker demands. Many BU students just a few years ago would only get a 9-month contract for less than $30K and were on their own for the summer; now all admitted PhD students (across all disciplines, not just Econ) are guaranteed a minimum base pay of $45K over 12 months for the current academic year. From a connection, I also know that another T30 with similarly low PhD pay is planning to greatly raise PhD student pay across the board for AY25-26 to avoid a strike.
