    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.

    does anyone know how admissions work? 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

    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.

    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!
