I applied to W&M too, well VIMS to be exact, no word yet. After 2 rejections I am weary to reach out... Good luck! Hopefully its closer to 3 weeks than the more...
Hi! As an older aspiring phd student thought I'd lend my support. I have one rejection so far, had 1 interview and waiting to hear from 2 other programs. Sometimes I wonder myself if I am looked over because I'm older but for the most part I have found graduate school to be a quite diverse group. I'm working on masters currently and hope to be phd student next year. The one program I interviewed had at least a couple students around/near my age (I think, I didn't really ask though).
I got a rejection right away from UC Irvine. From the graduate admissions it seems, kinda cruel that the EEB dept has sent me an email AND catalog in mail, saying they are still reviewing applicants. Even though I have already been rejected, like salt in the wound...
