    Does anyone know whether a funding package can be 'upgraded'? Say, if some applicants who are offered full fundings opt for other schools, and then, these full funding packages might go to those who previously got only partial funding packages. Does it happen?

    Id say that I would have my doubts considering that there are waitlists.

    I wish I could at least be waitlisted somewhere. Then I could realize this effort wasn't in absolute vain. So far, I have received 0 e-mails in my inbox. None. Niente. I guess some of you guys dealt with that over the last cycle. Huge congrats for being so resilient. This feeling of being rejected everywhere is almost unsurmountable, honestly.

    Didn't mean to offend you but from my perspective we are sitting in the same boat. Irregardless of whether my waitlisted status allows me to sit a few centimeters higher, the boat is still unlikely to reach the shore unless an acceptance comes in soon. ;)

    I see. I guess you are lucky. I haven't received anything from NYU. 

    Acceptances as well as wailists are out, so I guess NYU is not for me. Good luck!

    Well, it's not worth much, particularly if I don't get an acceptance soon. Ive another application for an MA program in Europe which will press me to accept/decline before the April 15th deadline and I will also have to write more applications which is not particularly the optimal course of things. So a waitlist that only becomes relevant in over two months isn't much in my case, even though I would like to go to NYU. Anyway, good luck on the rest of your applications.

    Hi, did you get a letter regarding the waitlist from NYU?

    Yes, I did. I woke up, saw an email from NYU, thought that it was an acceptance, read it, and went into the shower for 20 minutes, being severely disappointed. Interestingly, the email came yesterday at 10 PM right after I went to bed.

    Unless numerous admits are also admitted to Stanford/Harvard then the wait will be long. 

    Well, I guess then I consider myself as one of the lucky few that NYU did theoretically consider instead of outright rejecting me. I think as a program that revels in positive thought, they could at least give use our numbers on the waitlist so that we can make better decisions.

    Talked to my supervisor. 
    Supervisor: "You just have to be patient. It will all work out."
    Me: "Yes."
    Other Me: "I WANT RESULTS!!! I NEED TO KNOW!!!!! NOW!!!!!" 

    How many are you still waiting for? For me it's still 6 to go but I feel awful since the Princeton rejection yesterday.
