It depends on whats colleges did you get admitted to, career aspirations, college specialty and star faculty of your field of choice. If colleges are not in top 30, compare placement record, stipend and financial assistance, location and cost of living.

Anyone has the lowdown on Arizona State University PhD Public Admin & Policy admission scene?

Congrats man.

Governance through active citizen participation in context of international development & aid. What are yours?

Skype or face-time. Read well into your statement and area of research interest, Research conducted by POI, academic background like quant preparation or awareness of research methods and methodology. If you come across question you are not so sure about, start with as i have mention in my SoP or writing sample, it usually works well coz they dont remember it. And be general and tell stuff in broad brush strokes so that you dont end up being too narrow for your POI to the point of alienating him. Usually very strong candidates are interviewed and success rate in interview is very high. But some people manage to shoot themselves in foot. Like me. By oversleeping and being late for it like forty minutes.

Yeah, its the same interview with POI regarding your research motivation and preparedness for it. They eventually will. May be doing it in batches and your number is yet to come. Good Luck with it.

This explanation seems more plausible.

Looked up and down google but couldnt find it. All it can mean is specialty & program specific interview.

Never heard of it. Where did u came across it?

Yeah boyyyyy!!!!! Way to go, thats the spirit!! Now that you say it, i realize the truth of something i read a long time ago: Nothing is more defeating that constant dampening of one's own inner initiatives. (Carol Shields in Stone Diaries) When mongols started rolling down the hills on their horses, bare footed and bare headed, i dont think they knew they'd trample half the known world under their feet!

Congrats. Funded to be decided or confirmed with admission?

Hey you know the answer!!! Mike Ross kind of applications, what were you expecting?

E-mailed graduate director to know status on my app and he told me i am admitted (South Carolina). Funding decisions yet to be made by mid march. Said he was holding out the info till decisions had been made regarding funding. I am happy to count my blessings. 1 accept, 1 wait-list, 1 limbo, 1 reject.

Congrats!

Being waitlisted is a good news, am i right? I happily take a waitlist or two.

And then the impersonating duck went ahead and had a heart attack and i was forced to come clean about it.

Impersonating duck. Aim and shoot.

Enlarge upon that exchange!

Its nice to have you around. You have a way with words. Hey, there always PhD options in literature and lingual transformation in tech age

You made it to boulder? What did they tel you regarding putting down your confirmation deposit and other stuff,if you wouldn't mind sharing?

Hope is the last to die. Wait for it.

Another one bites the dust. Decisions are out for U Arizona Government & Public policy at results survey and i have yet to hear back from them. Dont know what to make of it. Probably going to trash bin. Funny though, that a referee didnt submit reference report. Till date. At least provides me a scapegoat to pin my failure on.

What was you GRE score?
