padma Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Has any applicant heard from UCSB yet? Are the admission offers usually preceded by interviews? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
padma Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Has anyone heard from UCSB? Interviews for other departments have started, and the deadline for submission for UCSB was quite early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathforthe Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Are you expecting any answer these days? Or is it impossible to receive an answer from an economics phd in January? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magicahan Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Are you expecting any answer these days? Or is it impossible to receive an answer from an economics phd in January? It's rare but I think Uchicago sent out their decisions at the end of January two years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgb2017 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Has anyone heard from UCSB? Interviews for other departments have started, and the deadline for submission for UCSB was quite early. Which programs have interviews? I didn't see anything on the department pages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgb2017 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Could an early RSVP to a visit day (OSU) affect funding decisions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXP Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Could an early RSVP to a visit day (OSU) affect funding decisions? OSU's fellowship decisions are not made by the department, so it is unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjrousseau Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Going to chime in here just to say good luck to everyone over the next few weeks! Most importantly, make sure to take care of yourself in what can be a very anxious period. This is advice I did not heed myself when I applied. If you find constant checking of urch or gradcafe or your email to be more anxiety-inducing than exciting, find a way to actively distract yourself. Go to the gym, hang out with friends, spend time reading away from your phone/laptop, even focus more on your work. I think actively getting your mind into another space can help. I personally had an awful experience with the anxiety around this time, and I suspect this is not uncommon - and probably more common than it may seem when you're going through it. So know that a lot of folks will be anxious, that's normal. And it's possible to curb that with some effort. Again, best of luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
padma Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I didn't notice any information about interviews on the websites either. But a lot of departments in other universities, such as UC Santa Cruz, Michigan State, Texas A&M etc., have started the interview process. I was just wondering if similar interview calls had gone out for UC-SB as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just wondering if similar interview calls had gone out for UC-SB as well. I have not heard anything from MSU. I didn't know that there are interviews. Thanks.

gagandeep249 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 There are a bunch of decisions for University of British Columbia showing up on Gradcafe. Can anyone verify if they're legit? I applied a month before the deadline, but my application still shows "under review." Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2019 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Should we expect interviews from all schools? I didn’t see much information about interview on schools’ websites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
startz Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 No. Many schools do not interview. And of schools that interview some only interview certain candidates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puggle Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Hey everyone. I think I'm in for a long three months as I'm already impatient to hear back and it is still January. When do you think we'll start seeing movement (positive or negative) from the admissions committees? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d7r Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Probably in the following two weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
