    Rejected from cmu phd but accepted to the masters which gives half tuition scholarship. I'm also undergrad at cmu so I can do a 1 year masters if I want to. 

    Its nice to know I'll be going to grad school in the fall but this also really sucks. Was my top choice 

    Don't worry, you have ten more places to hear from. You will get into a good PhD program.

    I should say though, I'm rooting for you to get in at literally every place that you've applied so as to increase the conditional probability of your turning down Penn! :)

    She just did get into every place, check out her signature!

    Rochester wasn't fake. 

    Did you receive the acceptance? 

     

    These are his exact words: 


    As far as I know, no admission decions by the philosophy department are yet announced.

    I'm going to write an official blog post soon and post this also in the acceptance and rejection threads, but I've asked a fellow applicant to collaborate with me on the blog. This person's role would be to call universities at appropriate times and check on the status of decisions. We hope that by doing this we can alleviate some stress on the applicant side as well as on the side of professors, grad students, or administrators in philosophy departments, the latter by reducing the amount of applicants calling and emailing. 

    We never before have done this and it is possible it won't work. If it seems to cause too much trouble, my collaborator may withdraw from the role. 

    Please let us know how you feel about this and whether or not you think we should continue with this option.

    Best,

    Jac

    I would like it. It really would help. 

    By the way, have you heard from any department you applied to?

    I was admitted there two years ago and they offered me a fellowship and, actually, the most amount of money I've seen for a stipend. I think if you get in there you'll be taken care of. 

    Fingers crossed! 

    Just out of curiosity, why didn't you go to Rochester?

    Accepted to Virginia! Five year funding package (fellowship + TAing)! Will likely accept (top choice), but not until I hear back from 12 others (or 10, if you discount Duke and Chicago as presumed rejects). I promise not to keep any waitlisted too long if they end up on waitlist.

     

    On another note: HOLY SHIT! I'M ONLY A 21 YEAR OLD UNDERGRAD! HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?!?! I'm genuinely surprised. I thought I'd get shut out.

    WOW! congratulations!

    I suspect that they're finished making initial offers of admission at this point. I've been told that they will notify applicants  (WL or R) via e-mail in the coming two weeks.

    Wow thanks :( 

    I'd be lucky to even get one acceptance. :(
