SirLuke reacted to adhiri in IHEID Masters, 2015
Hello! From sifting through last year's results and timings, it seems to me that Mar 20/21 was the day that decisions were relayed to applicants. This wait has been excruciatingly long ever since the status changed to "under consideration".
My best wishes to all those who applied for Sept 2015 intake. I hope to meet everyone in Geneva!

I can't take it anymore! I have an essay to write with an approaching deadline and all I'm doing is checking my email! Send us decisions!

SirLuke reacted to Grad888 in IHEID (Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies Geneva) Fall 2015
It seems to me like the two programmes are quite different? So it would depend on what you want to get out of your masters and do afterwards I'd say. I turned down an Msc Conflict Studies at LSE in favour of IHEID because IHEID seems to help you get jobs and also the location is amazing! A friend of mine who went to LSE said that I'd definitely made the right decision. Bt it all depends on you I'd say

SirLuke got a reaction from Ritwik in age and getting into a Ph.D. program
No I can tell u honestly age dosen´t matter on the end its important to finish the Phd and to enjoy it. So keep going on and please don't matter about age.
I have a friend he started Undergrad too with 26 and Phd with 32 and he has now his dream job. So don't let any number take your dream :-)

If it didn't feel as horrible as it does, then it wouldn't feel as rewarding in the end! That being said, I'm dying inside. NO SLEEP! CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE BUT GRAD APPS! I'm going cray cray!!!

SirLuke reacted to uselesstheory in Feeling horrible
Sometimes I catch myself berating myself for even applying because "obviously, you are not qualified or intelligent enough to get a PhD"...fearing that my professors and mentors and other advisors have just been saying nice things to avoid hurting me. I realize that is completely irrational, and that my professors would have steered me away from applying to top programs in my field if my anxious self-deprecating thoughts were true, but it is so difficult to anchor one's self in reality when obsessing over applications and chances and the future easily take over (especially during a break).

SirLuke reacted to jujubea in Waiting Game--how do you deal with the waiting anxiety?
Don't be talkin' about "too old" on these forums. Lots of us old'uns on here. Even actual old'uns who don't just think they're old because they're no longer 18... myself admittedly included
