  1. Here's the post on the philosophy admissions blog for the corresponding Friday last year (Feb 20 2015)

    "That makes this Friday quite a day for important releases – NYU, Yale, Harvard, USC, and Fordham all released today. Perhaps we’ll see a couple more over the weekend. Exciting times nonetheless, and congratulations to everyone who received offers today."

    ugh.

  2. The writing sample argued for a tautology. The inference from the second to third sentence is just invalid. The most charitable interpretation is that it was on Plantinga's modal ontological argument for the existence of God and there were some typos in the description. Voting troll

  3. Does anyone have info about when campus visits usually have been in past years? Do most top philosophy programs have a particular organized campus visit where all admitted students come? Or do most just invite you to come whenever you would like to visit? I'm particularly wondering whether the weekends in mid to late March are really popular for campus visits, in particular the weekends of 12-13, 19-20, 26-27.

    I know the answers to these questions obviously vary depending on the school, but I'm wondering if people have any data showing recurring trends for, say, the top 20 programs in the PGR.

  4. I applied to several, partly to increase my chances, partly because my interests are broad (in addition to logicky stuff, also traditional M&E, Phil mind, Phil physics). 

    Irvine and Berkeley (LPS), CUNY (math), Harvard, Princeton, NYU, Michigan, Notre dame, Stanford, Rutgers, and MIT (philosophy).
