As for me, I stopped the constant refreshing/checking after my first and only admit. I forgot TGC existed for a few days actually.

Nice. I have only one offer, so I'm very excited! Do you guys know what is the best way to get from NYC to Ithaca? Is Short Line (Coach USA) or Greyhound better?

Anybody else visiting Cornell this Monday (March 23)?

Institution Name: MIT Sloan School of Management Concentration: Operations Management Date of Notification: 3/14/2015 Type of Notification: Email Notification: Interview (Skype) Posted on GradCafe?: No Comments: General questions about interests and background

Same as you, I still havent heard anything. I emailed them last week asking about my status and visit days (so that I can plan my US trip). I was told that they "hope to send out decisions by the beginning of [this] week" and that the "open house for admitted students" will be on April 1st and April 2nd. no clue about the one acceptance on TGC today though...

I was the one who posted that UCSD visit days are on 4/1 and 4/2. I emailed to ask and was told of such info by the graduate program coordinator.

Cornell: 3/23 UCSD: 4/1 4/2

I'm still waiting for Duke as well. Hopefully, we're on some sort of waiting list?

Institution: Cornell University Program: Economics, PhD Decision: Accepted Funding: Full with first year fellowship Notification Date: 3/9/15 Notified Through: Email Posted on GC: Yes Comments: Off the waitlist, first acceptance

For Duke: https://applicants.siss.duke.edu I havent received anything either. Anybody know when UCSD is coming out?

Good luck everyone! the MPhil experience is great.

Just email the program and tell them what you're telling us. It shouldnt give a negative impression.

A US math major is usually just: Calc 1 2 3, Intro to proof course, real analysis, linear algebra, abstract algebra, probability, complex analysis, geometry course, differential equations, number theory, topology, plus a few more of your choice. So you're not missing much. Abstract algebra, complex, geometry, number theory are of little use in economics.

So it's basically PhD admission without first year funding, right? This reminds me of reference point a la Kahneman and Tversky (1979)! haha I just googled: the April 15 resolution applies to funded offer only. So Yes, in this case they can ask you to respond in 5 days.

Have fun on that side, SystemicRisk! and congrats again on your impressive results.
