    Bah! Everyone is smart enough to do continental philosophy! It's just a matter of being courageous and vulnerable.

    Well, if it helps, if I combine all of my offers, I'd be able to afford to rent a studio in NYC, no utilities...

    Just declined offers to Toronto, Cornell, and UCSD. Hope this makes a few people's lives over the next month a little easier!

    Don't lose heart over being waitlisted, then! My writing sample is on Kant's philosophy of mind, and I was accepted off of it. I'm 99.9% certain I'll turn down their offer for Pitt, so I might be your only roadblock to an acceptance!! I'll make my decision around March 20 after visiting Pitt. I wish I could free up more than one space for everybody

    Ecstatic to report that I was WL as well!
    Question for the Kantians: What's your AOI? Mine is ethics and political. They may admit off the waitlist based on AOI, so I hope you two aren't also ethics.
    Looking forward to meeting you in April!

    Congrats to all of you Yale waitlists! Kantian without one here! Though... Kant say I expected otherwise.

    I posted the History and Philosophy of Science acceptance at Notre Dame this afternoon. I was offered admission into the philosophy track along with two fellowships. I have such ambivalence with respect to sharing this information, for on the one hand, I am genuinely honored and excited to be granted this opportunity, but on the other, I recognize that my being granted an opportunity necessarily precludes others from said opportunity (and I know that may seem common-sensical or, at worst, banal, but I just have a lot of feelings.)

    Please know that I, too, have felt the existential dread that has been this admissions season and I have full confidence that each and every one of us will find our place to philosophize in the world. I found this the other day and it has been solacing my otherwise inconsolable mind: "Stuttering is an ideology. Have you noticed? Order and obedience are smooth. But the sun stutters. The heart stutters. Resistance movements stutter. Stutter and shout." - Shūji Terayama

    No matter what happens this admissions season, we haven't failed. We're just stuttering. We will all be okay! (I'll stop now and take my, probably unwanted, appeals to romanticism with me.)
