btw anybody have a rough idea of how many wait listed ppl end up, on average, being accepted later on?

canuck ^^ :D

do u think masters applicants will be at a disadvantage against PhD students? i hope we dont get the "second class" treatment haha

damn they already sent out toronto acceptances...that sucks ...horribly ... or is it only PHD applicant or is the Masters (PhD Stream) also out?

true...all ive seen is one acceptance in GC .. either nobody who got accepted bothered to post or like somebody said all offers were waitlisted lol

Anybody get accepted in georgetown and not planning to go? please save us waitlisted folks some misery and decline offer :D .... anyway i would like to hear from fellow TM members who got accepted or waitlisted at georgetown ..herez my info Institution: Georgetown Program: Economics PhD Decision: Wait-Listed Notification date: 3/6 Notified through: E-mail

Institution: Georgetown Program: Economics PhD Decision: Wait-Listed Notification date: 3/6 Notified through: E-mail Comments: Those of you who got accepted but who do not wish do go please decline offer as soon as you can and save this dude from the unbearable lightness of being (wait listed) lol

if i were the university then u just took away my incentive do give u an awesome offer ....but then again idk a damn thing about admissions.

ya i got the same reply....she was like "We will contact you when we make the decisions."

Touche!

is that georgetown admit in gradcafe real? any TMers got in gtown yet?

do phd programs hand out conditional acceptances which depend on a certain grade on a certain course? in my case it is mathematical statistics (which i realize is very important, but i seem to have no choice but to drop)....and the thing is after i drop the course i dont want to get an acceptance letter saying "ok we accepted you with full funding but you need to get an A (or maybe just pass) that stat course of yours"
