  1. I lost my interest in the program due to timing. I do IPE, so the program is actually a really good fit for me. But, I don't think I am going to wait any longer before I commit. Once I hear back from Princeton WWS, I will make my decision regardless of my chance of getting admitted at UCSD.
  2. I claim Stanford GSB rejection: randomly checked the website. Also, I haven't heard anything from Princeton (Funny)...
  3. Thanks a lot for this. It is indeed random to a certain extent.
  4. I sympathize with you almost 100%. The flow of offers has stopped for me since Michigan, Rochester, and couple other universities. I have a 3.8 from an Ivy and 1400+ on the GRE with a great SOP (I spent 4 months on it with professors and graduate students giving me feedbacks.) Not to mention I have a great array of recommendation letters from the Ivy. I am getting rejected by some other lower ranked institutions + Stanford and Princeton (Probably). This is frustrating because I have great great potential advisors at HPS. We will see whether Harvard makes an offer or not, even though it seems unlikely.
  5. There is a post on GSB already. I applied to GSB, but I don't think I have gotten in. On the GSB website, it says decisions will be announced in mid-March, but from the past trends, we are likely to hear back next week or so.
  6. Chicago is the other one....http://political-science.uchicago.edu/ Herbert Simon and the first!
  7. Also, UCLA's endowment has gone down below $1b. Given the size of its student population (both undergrad and grad), this amount of endowment doesn't seem enough to maintain the University's status as a major research institution. So, they may be choosing candidates extra carefully.
  8. This is outrageous! I hope this only applies to pure WWS programs, not joint-degree programs with econ and poli sci.
  9. My poor friend still believe everything on departmental websites. He is sure that he will hear back in mid-March. Yes, he will if the ones he is getting are rejections!!! I think everything except waitlisted people will be over by the end of February. @ cpaige: I ate every single piece of them!
  10. So, I had Chinese food this evening. I had two fortune cookies and found the following: "There will be many surprises: unexpected gains are likely." "Your infinite capacity for patience will be rewarded sooner or later." I am probably extrapolating too much, but I wanted to share this fortune with you guys!
  11. For IR, it would be hard to find another place besides UCSD. I still haven't heard back from UCSD's PSIA program. It's one of my top choices!
  12. Here are the lucky ones who might have a chance at Yale!
  13. Several friends of mine heard from Berkeley for CP, AP and IR. They all got in on Tuesday, I believe. I think the flow of acceptances is done, although I may be wrong.
  14. Not to mention it's a better program if you are doing AP or IR.
  15. BTW, why am I not hearing back from UCSD? Is it because I applied to their joint degree program? Has anyone applied to its joint degree program with GRE cutoffs specifically mentioned?
  16. Come on Princeton and Harvard, let US KNOW RIGHT NOW!
  17. Noooo way..... not an amazing place for IPE despite Scheve's presence...... perhaps my credentials actually suck (oh well impostor syndrome..)
  18. Yale is out!!! Congrats to everyone who has been accepted!
  19. Whoahhhhh! that thing is impossible to get into!!!!
