Yeah, I'm in the same boat.

Done. Thanks for the heads-up!

I turned down my offer from Columbia today. I heard their waitlist was based on AOI -- so, in case it matters to anyone, I'm interested in mind/cog sci/metaphysics. Best of luck to you all!

Princeton or MIT. I'm going to visit first.

Of course I don't mind sharing! Metaphysics and mind, mostly. Also connections to normativity and epistemology.

I triple-checked the email and worried if it had been meant for someone else....

I got into Princeton as well! (I'm about to post it on the results list.) So, my chances of rejecting the Columbia offer have gone up quite a lot. I feel so blessed. I cried on the fire escape of my philosophy building. My getting into Princeton was gravely important to me and my partner.

There's roughly a 50/50 chance I'll turn it down. I'll post here if I do.

Claiming the third Columbia admission. Mine had xxx's and yyy's! 2a/0w/2r and 3 presumed rejections out of 9.

I'd guess that it's because there's less state (or perhaps even federal) funding available for international students, in which case the department has to pay more on its own.

That's good to hear! I've seen him give a couple talks, and I participated in a semester-long reading group with him. But, I never met with him one-on-one, which is perhaps more indicative of his real values. Thank you for sharing!

Do you know Peter van Inwagen? I've interacted with him a lot and find his personality and behavior usually bothersome and sometimes utterly deplorable. Specifically, he's a constant source of condescension and microaggressions (and I'm a white male!). I'd be pleased if your experience was different.
