To whoever turned down the WashU wait list -- thank you! your speedy decision is much appreciated by the other waitlisters

Just got waitlisted at WashU for PNP!

So has anyone been accepted to PNP at WashU yet? Or just philosophy?

Aggghhhhhh Stanford's not done! Be still, my heart.

I'll claim the Carnegie Mellon rejection! I was emailed by a professor that I had been I'm contact with.

Yep, I'm interested in phil of cognitive science/mind/language.

I received an offer from them in the last week of January, which I declined earlier this week. No idea about the wait list though, sorry!

Fully agreed!

Well said!

Of course, fully agreed. I turned down my U Conn offer last week for this very reason.

Glad you clarified your position, I agree and appreciate it

I'm not really concerned who's believing what I say. I'm sincerely interested in fit whether anyone else is or not. This forum has the potential to be an actual space for mutual support and a place where people can voice their thoughts to a sympathetic audience. So far the vibe I've gotten since my first post has mostly been critical and scathing. I think that's a shame and although I know we're all under an immeasurable amount of stress, making each other feel shitty isn't helping anyone. I hope this changes.

I have no idea where I'm going to choose. I want to keep my options open and visit as many schools as possible to get a feel for where the best fit would be.

I actually have no idea yet where I'll be accepting, it'll depend on where I get offers and what I think of schools when I visit them! So I'm still planning to go to the Cincinnati weekend!

I still haven't heard back from several schools that are extremely important to me. We're all struggling here, and in different ways. Please keep that in mind.
