So UPenn is having interviews?
I don't know. My POI finished to read my application files and replied to a mail I sent her in October asking if I'm still interested in the school or I had made other plans. It doesn't seem like an standard procedure. But who knows.

Has anyone heard about visitation dates for UPenn or Northwestern? I want to book my flight to UC Irvine for March 3rd, but am worried since I haven't heard back from UPenn and Northwestern; they might have their visitations that same weekend.
Regarding UPenn, I don't know when their visit days will be, but this week I'll be having an skype with POI. She said that the admissions process is still going on. I wouldn't expect decisions to be released before February 20th.

Is it one person per subfield making the initial cut and after this cut they ask other faculty if they are interested in working with a student? Or is it the case that one person per subfield makes all the decisions and other faculty mentioned in your SOP are notified after you've been accepted?
Each department has their own admission's process. But this is how Stanford's worked a decade ago: http://jackman.stanford.edu/papers/pa04.pdf

Thank you! They said they'll get back next week regarding that. Congratulations to you too.
Are you planning to visit?
I would like to. But I'm from Latin America. Are you?

Hey
Received an informal email informing me of my acceptance. No details on funding. Any idea how much they offer?
Congratulations! They didn't sent me details on funding. I've read they usually give between 25K and 27K. But in the informal mail POI sent me, they mentioned they have recently reformed the PhD program and now there is more funding.

Just received an email from POI in UPenn wanting to talk with me if I have any questions and still considering UPenn. She said their admission process is still ongoing.

Georgetown is sending decisions today too? There goes my heart rate...
Congrats @international_IR
I don't know. It was a very personalized email from POI. There were 256 applicants for the IR field.

Were you notified via email? If so, by the DGS or through the portal?
I received an email by the DGS.

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.
I'm also at NYU's wait list!
