Last year, I asked from a professor at HPS Pitt why you rejected me... He was very positive about my application before sending me the rejection. And he responded me" admissions are lottery, that's the reality" : )))))

Thanks for the response! They don't have an active hps track in their philosophy department, you are right!

The great thing about IHPST is that students have full access to philosophy department. I guess , but still I'm waiting for a cpuple of other results. But so far, gut is inclined towards UofT BTW, I see that you've applied for a couple of Canadian programs, but no McGill. If you don't mind, can I ask why?

I've been to both of the McGill and UofT philosophy departments and also IHPST. As you mentioned, Montreal is a really fun city. but UofT's philosophy department is really larger. Have you ever been in any of the 2 schools? And yes, I have admission from IHPST. Thanks. But they may release results later as well, if anyone declines. You've been accepted into LPS of Irvine! That seems to be an amazing program!

To McGill or to University of Toronto? That's the question. Any thoughts?

So, I contacted a prof. of Stanford and he forwarded my email to graduate admission office

I contacted Stanford Graduate admission office yesterday and they said they will announce the results in "a few weeks".

I received an official email including the admission letter! The graduate program director sent the email to me. And yes, I'm a Canadian permanent resident.

Thanks a lot for the point. I have an external scholarship of ~22k, which seems to be okay... My concern is more about the global reputation of this program out of Canada...

Hello dear applicants, I received an admission from HPST-University of Toronto with a 5-years funding package. I was wondering how can I compare the general ranking of HPST-university of Toronto with the HPS/LPS programs offered in US universities? I highly appreciate any comments/points/etc .
