I don't think so - I'm pretty sure they have a wait list which hasn't been posted yet.

I applied to PNP - and no, I have received no further communication from WUSTL beyond the form rejection email.

I'm in a similar boat. Thus far I've racked up a nice set of rejections and am definitely glad I have a solid plan 'B' setup incase I strike out this time around.

It is a messy situation to be sure - and probably quite frustrating for Marcus who I'm sure would like to be acknowledged by Kripke as at least having some influence in the conception of what became Naming and Necessity.

welcome and best of luck to you!

congrats!!

what is the less radical kind of plagerism? (I feel I should point out I have no stand on the issue - other than as an interested observer)

sounds interesting! so I am curious, do you have a stand on the kripke controversy? (http://linguafranca.mirror.theinfo.org/Archive/whose.html) for those who aren't familiar with it

"man" was correct, lol. so are you into phil of language?

good luck to you!

perhaps you can read more carefully before responding - note the word "probably". further, I think we can count on everyone here being savvy enough to recognize that the data on this website is all unverified - and as such - not to be taken as solid fact :-)

just realized, based on UCSDs past record of number of admitees, that anyone who didn't get a call probably didn't get in. Bummer for me (and probably 300 others) but awesome for those who got in :-) here is a link to the UCSD page with the stats: http://philosophy.ucsd.edu/graduate/prospective.html

congrats to whomever got into UC San Diego - I am very jealous!!

congrats!

am I correct in assuming that most of the really prestigious schools will want an interview before they accept a candidate?

I am primarily interested in Emergence as it pertains to Philosophy of mind. To a lesser extent I'm interested in applied ethics.

thx!! and i definitely agree - san diego is a fantastic city!

Hey all - for what it's worth: BA Phil: 2.49GPA MA Phil: 4.0GPA GRE: 160V/152Q/4.5W SCHOOLS: UC San Diego, UC Riverside, Stanford, U Arizona, U Indiana, WashU, NYU OTHER: Co-Founder of an Internet Startup, writing sample received a R&R request from a peer-reviewed journal I honestly have no idea what my chances are. I suspect that BA GPA won't help me any (despite the fact that there's a ten-year gap between it an my MA work). That GRE will probably not be much help either. Further, I'm coming from an unknown MA program so it's not like I'll get a pedigree bump. All of these schools are competetive, so I've made sure my plan 'B' takes not getting into any programs this year into account.
