Does anyone know if we expected to move to campus for the fall semester?

I do not know for sure, and I imagine it varies by school. I would anticipate at least some activities will be happening on university campuses this fall, but whether you need to be there full time I think is likely variable by program. The PhD coordinator at the program you are planning to attend might be able to answer this.Originally Posted by gzugel

I'm sure this will vary. For most, I would guess that you are expected to be there in person, but they will be flexible. We had a first year come in this past year with visa issues. Everything was remote anyway, so he just joined in from his home country. The fall should have more in person activities, and I would expect PhD seminars to have fairly high priority for that because there is an advantage in being face to face.

Welcome! This is a stressful time. You should definitely get an admit from that many interviews, but interview costs are lower, so maybe schools are giving out more. I don't know about Yale's yield rate. You would think it's high, because it's Yale, but they are probably admitting some of the same people as Harvard, NYU, Stanford, etc. and people could choose those places. The econ subforum here has a lot of stuff from Finance PhDs sometimes. I haven't checked in on it recently.
Hang in there. Things will start resolving soon.

Thank you for the response! Yeah, that's also what I've been thinking about. Hopefully the interviews can turn into good results

Hi, I'm also an applicant this year and just to give you some information I know.
Boston College: If you did not receive second round, the probability of getting in is actually low. They did second round interview in early Feb and made offers shortly after that.
UNC: The same is for UNC. I did my second round shortly after the first round weeks ago. If you did not receive second round with faculty members in your field of interest, then your ranking on their list is also not high.
UW: The only thing I know is that they started reviewing candidates pretty late this year. So, possibly they did not send out second round yet.
I would suggest you focus on the schools that you completed 2 rounds interviews and it's reasonable to reach out to those PhD coordinators to know where you stand, as there's high possibility they already have a ranking. Good luck!

How is it possible that I still haven't heard from several universities like UNC, McGill, Western, UCLA, and Penn State? I assume that they will be rejecting me at this point but I think still they properly let me know (especially after you pay 100 dollars or more for an application fee).
|
What field?
Edited: Just realized it is probably OB. Sorry about that. I know that for marketing, UCLA has already made offers. I do not have any other overlap with you. The only school I have yet to hear from is Toronto.

Yes, it is OB! Mostly likely, I will be rejected but I think they should still have the decency of letting me know...?
