Did you get a funded offer? I got admitted to the program last week, but nothing has been said about funding. I am interested in macro, too. As far as I know, Professor Turnovsky is extremely well-known, but he is quite old, so I am not sure if he will be able to advise students in next 5 years.

Wow. Very interesting. What do you think?

I got waitlisted for first year fellowship from a school that I plan to visit. Should I ask some questions about that when I meet the DSG?

50k + 1 year of researching experience at a top-notch school seems to be a sweet deal to me. One year older in academia doesn't make any difference.

Mine changes to "Final Review" as well. Ready to get another official rejection/waitlist

Wasn't you invited to the open house? Anyone got OSU fellowship so far?

I emailed the coordinator and got waitlisted for fellowship. I've realized that in the invitation they sent me on Feb 19, it started with "Dear Admit" instead of "Dear Fellowship Nominee" in the follow up email from the GSD. What did you guys see in the invitation email?

2 UPenn already, likely real

Minnesota out!

just got Ohio State open house invitation. Funding decision will be out next week.

No, I don't know for sure. However, last month, the day before I received a nomination from OSU, I checked my application and found the same kinds of documents requested. Maybe it's a good sign! Hopefully they are working to send out official email with funding decision.

To anyone who got accepted to Rochester: last night when I check my application, I found something new in the upload box (copy of passport, financial document, and new student request to I20). What does it mean? I haven't received any official email from the school, should I contact them to ask?

constantly refeshing my email ...

First Minnesota admit was posted on gradcafe. Is it legit? I am literally freaking out!

OSU's admission system is pretty tricky. I've got the official acceptance email today, but when I checked my application status yesterday, I found 3 new sections under application requirements tab: Affidavit of Support, Confidential Bank Statement, and Copy of Passport. I think you might want to check that for "unofficial" acceptance. Anw, what is the expected date for OSU's fellowship result? The first fellowship result posted on thegradcafe last year was March 1. Is it really that late?
