yitz15 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Anybody have any recent views on their NYU application video? I don’t unfortunately... None for me either still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funnyman Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Do people know what's going on with LSE? There are very few acceptances on GC compared to last year. Do we think they're done sending out offers? Super bummed since it was my dream program/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
econra Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Does anyone's warwick application portal show any progress? Mine is still at "application received" while they have started sending out call for interviews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadInLongRun Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 (edited) I just got an email (after months of radio silence) from UVA's Office of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs thanking me for applying to UVA and asking me to check out their diversity program and services. But when I go to check the application portal, my application is still in "submitted" status. What does this even mean? Do they send this email to all the applicants or only to those whom have been admitted? This is actually messing up my head because I still haven't gotten an admit yet and I'm feeling quite desperate. Somebody help me! :torn: Edited February 22, 2021 by DeadInLongRun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEconGuy10 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Anyone got any email from Texas A&M? There's one post on Grad Cafe, but the person reported a GPA of 9.99. A little sus imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEconGuy10 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I hope so. I really like A&M's program and have been super anxious about their decision. Their region has also been heavily affected by winter storms, so I'm not sure if sending out acceptances is their priority right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amberduck Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I also applied for their program. Good luck:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDeadFlagBlue Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Rejected by Illinois after being accepted by Duke - admissions are extremely random! Seems that they are targeting a cohort of 8 (yikes) and that could explain why. I would imagine they typically have an incoming cohort of 20 students or so.

A little sus imo I just received an e-mail informing that I have been admitted. They are going to schedule an interview with me within a few weeks(I guess the funding decisions will be made after the interviews??) and I have been invited to a virtual recruiting event on March.

From the email you got, do you think they're sending them out individually? Would you mind sharing the first letter of your last name?

I believe so, because I received the e-mail after I saw the first(?) post on Gradcafe. My last name starts with K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeadInLongRun Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Me on the same boat...just checked GC and it seems like they sent it to everyone/"diversity group"?? You are right. It seems like either a system-wide thank you note (way to rob it in on the rejs) or one meant for the "diversity group". Either way, a really odd email considering how they've gone radio silence for the past couple of months. Welp, at least this means that they are still working there. Hope we both get in and we can laugh about it later, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

econdrthrowaway Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 So weird thing for Emory; I see that they've sent out a bunch of interview requests and a bunch of rejections and I've received neither. Should I contact the department? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I contact the department? Emory contacted me last week and arranged an interview in early March. Guess that they review candidates in batches and waves. Also quite confused about their mechanism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
econ99 Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Emory contacted me last week and arranged an interview in early March. Guess that they review candidates in batches and waves. Also quite confused about their mechanism. I got an email mid-Feb, and had my interview last week. From what I gathered from the interview, they are spending 3-4 weeks interviewing students, and then sending out acceptances after. They also asked to be updated on other school acceptances - they might be trying to gage which students will actually accept if offered a spot at Emory.

jshp45 Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 I have not heard anything about the University of California Davis. Do you think that it is an implicit rejection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wahasky Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Emory contacted me last week and arranged an interview in early March. Guess that they review candidates in batches and waves. Also quite confused about their mechanism. I wonder if this is becoming more common? My interview with JHU came a few weeks after others posted interviews with them on gradcafe. Have an interview with Rice as well. Wasn't expecting that many tbh although I guess both those schools have done them for the past few years too.

QuanJuDe Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 I have not heard anything about the University of California Davis. Do you think that it is an implicit rejection? Don't lose hope just yet. No waitlist release and source told me it was not fully done yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhDreamer Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Does anybody have additional info on the waitlist game? Is it common to get accepted off the waitlists very late, close to April 15th? Or are these things often solved earlier? I have currently two waitlists and two acceptances Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
