  1. Plot twist: Each time someone calls Harvard, the announcement is pushed back a day.
  2. You're trapped, mate. It's the Durham life for you.
  3. Given that there are a fair number, they could well be legit. poliscigoat said MIT is still contacting people, so you're probably not SOL on that front yet.
  4. If we want to get fancy, we can argue that forums are, to some extent, voluntary response samples, and will therefore exaggerate the voices of those with strong opinions. Given the described tone of psr (I've never been on it myself), it's probably a safe bet that people who are happy in their program wouldn't be comfortable on that site and wouldn't bother posting on it much (analogy: the comments section of Fox's website is likely not representative of the opinions of the American people as a whole).
  5. In at Michigan! I wish all of you the best of luck with your admissions.
  6. Accepted at Princeton! Found out via email from the DGS.
  7. Hi again, guys. From what I heard, 23 students got in, and they're shooting for a class of about eight. Hopefully they'll let people know by the middle to end of March if there are more acceptances.
  8. In at Rochester. That said, I think I should take a break from these forums for a while. I'm genuinely happy for all of you, but I had a bit of a mental hiccup yesterday with the combination of WashU and the (expected) low funding at Wisconsin. I wish all of you the best of luck, and I hope to have more good news whenever I return. I'm also looking forward to meeting some of you at various accepted students weekends. May the odds be ever in your favor.
  9. All quiet on the WashU front (for me, at least). EDIT: jk, rejected.
  10. A note on WUSTL: According to their website, admissions are sent out via mail. It's possible an unofficial email will go out as well, but you might be better served learning the postal workers' schedule instead of continually refreshing your inbox.
  11. Congratulations AuldReekie! And everyone else who received acceptances.
  12. I know you've already gotten some grief for this statement, but Wisconsin has pretty decent placement. If you do well in grad school and are a good fit for a post-doc posting or even a faculty position at a decent to good school, you should be fine. I'm also unsure why you would bother applying to a school if you aren't interested in attending.
  13. At least some of Penn State, UT-Austin, UNC, Purdue (congratulations to whoever got accepted), and Florida State. That's not too shabby for a Monday.
