Congrats! Are you going to accept either of them?
Just saw this now - I accepted the offer from Syracuse!

Got admitted to Syracuse last week, and also to McGill on Monday - almost June!

In Hamilton. Just won a CGS! 17/20. Totally shocked, but stoked!

Ended up accepting a last-minute offer from Purdue. Very sad to have turned down Tulane.

Forgot to add: Declined Western. Did all of the first-rounders decline Western?

Philosophers are probably the most socially awkward sub-group, so I'd say you're in good company .

Interesting. Just out of curiosity, did you get the letters from the faculty members at your current PhD program?
My letters were from people on my M.A. committee at another institution.

Thank you everyone!
Now comes the hard part - telling my supervisor at my current PhD program that I'm leaving. Any suggestions?

Very excited!!!
Just had a Skype meeting with Oliver Sensen at Tulane. Will definitely be accepting my offer from them. We have exactly the same vision for my project, for me in the program, and ultimately career-wise afterwards.
Hope this helps people on the waitlists at Western Ontario, Tennessee, Boston U, Syracuse, Purdue, and Baylor, although I don't know about my exact position on those waitlists.
Very happy to have made a final decision and be done with the stress of this season!
Thank you to everyone for their solidarity and support this season!

At least, they have already sent out waitlist.
Yeah I don't have any expectation that I got accepted, but I just want "closure" haha before I start deciding between offers, or waiting for the waitlists (agonizing).

Did anybody hear from SLU? I emailed the Chair today because they are the last school from which I haven't heard back.

Congrats! How'd you hear, if I may ask?
Personal email from Oliver Sensen at 11:43pm Saturday night. He is the director of graduate studies, but also my POI, so perhaps he connected with me directly before the other acceptances are released.

Got accepted at Tulane!!! Woohoooo! New Orleans baby!

I heard from a grad student that they are in the process of installing a new dept. chair, and it is possible that is a reason for delay.
I hope we hear from them soon!!
I suspect they also release a little later because their application deadline isn't until February 15th.

At least we have little overlap
Good luck to you!
Likewise! You have any idea about how many applications they get? Can't find any info myself.
