I should probably clarify that the New School does not typically fund graduate students. I would venture to guess that on the order of 10% of graduate students are funded, but I've yet to meet one during any of my visits.

Yes, I do. There would be more readily available opportunities in terms of research and teaching at BGSU and Temple, but the New School for Social Research is internationally renowned and the academic nexus of progressive social and political thought.

Not a great fit at all, but they are a well-resourced department with two research centers.

I've been admitted with tuition remission to sociology programs at the New School, Temple, and Bowling Green State. Only Temple and Bowling Green State are offering full-funding (18k). The New School is tuition remission only. I live in NYC with a partner of 3 years who is able to support me. The program at Bowling Green is 4 years, Temple is 4 or 5 years, and the New School will require at least 5, but probably longer. At the moment the best choice seems to be Temple, given its that it's located near enough NYC, the fit, and the funding. But I'm heartbroken to walk away from the New School and concerned that I'm walking away from good research and publishing opportunities at Bowling Green. If anyone, especially any folks in sociology or the social sciences at large (not you, you orthodox economist) have something to offer, it would be really appreciated. I'm lost.

Anyone get a Temple admit + funding they've yet to claim?

Nothing from Toronto yet. Results suggest bad news for the rest of us.

I'm with you. I didn't have any idea. Didn't know what the acronym POI was about. I went to a U.S. undergrad, but abroad for a MSSc and the system is entirely different. If you give it a go next time around, best of luck. I might be in the same boat.

Has anyone claimed a CUNY acceptance? There are a handful in the results, one with no stats.

I got what I imagine is the same email. No idea what to make of it. Has anyone been accepted?!?
