I don't know if I should check here obsessively or my inbox. lol 

Thanks . I applied to one public health PhD program. It really was a long shot and I don’t even have a masters in public health. The other was a public policy program but not in NY. Not toooo upset because I want to stay local. Soooo Wagner and New School are really where my heart is at. 

Ughhhh! I wish they would just let us know today. I need good news. Two rejections and I’m Just feeling depleted. 

Waiting for Wagner... March 2 

ok, well at least I'm in good company because I didn't get an interview invite as well. 
 
 

Still waiting for NYU, New School, and Harris. I noticted that someone said they received an acceptance from NYU and had an interview. Not sure if this is a fake posting or not....but checking last year someone was admitted on Feb 10. 
 

ok, here's to nervously waiting next week.

Well I'm heading into march and  rejections from two schools. Still waiting for one more school (my first choice). #waitingforamiracle 

What changed is that I figured out that I love research and am pretty apt for it. I certainly would not mind ending up at a CC. If I get a part time job at a CC, I may want to stay local and get my PhD in Southern California. I do want to at least try to get my doctorate if I go that route because it is useful for career advancement. I may chose to go to a top program to persue a TT job at a 4 year. I want to prepare as though that is what I am going to do.
 
There is a scholar I really enjoyed working with as an undergrad, and I wouldn't mind going back. Otherwise, John Zollar and Michael Mann have always fascinated me. Both are at UCLA. I really like Fukyama and Skocspol at Harvard, but that may be aiming too high. Hetherington, at Vanderbilt wrote a good book recently. Of course Gilens and Paige, at Princeton and Northwestern are pretty awesome. But these are people at the top of the field, it seems like everyone would want to work with them. Right?

Anytime! 

hang in there!  

wooohoo congrats 

wow! congrats!!!!

Good luck everyone this week! Hopefully it's all good and positive news.
