Same here - hope it helps!

With my official rejection from Harvard and my acceptance into Chicago MAPPS with half tuition funding, my cycle is 100% officially done!!

Also still waiting on Chicago

I think emailing Brandon Bartels is your best bet - he's really responsive and willing to answer questions.

Thanks!

Did someone here say they already accepted their Columbia offer? I thought someone did, but I can't find it.

Cycle is done for me too - still haven't heard from Chicago or Harvard, but I'm counting them as no's. Overall, I'm happy though!

Gah - still nothing for me. Did you get a form letter or a personalized one from a faculty member?

Mine too - he told me if I came home from work one more time and talked about grad cafe or spent the entire night refreshing grad cafe he was going to have to leave me hahaha

Awesome, thanks! I'll be going into their phd program, so I'll keep that in mind.

I agree 100% with the interview idea. I have a friend who is doing a neuro science phd and his process was a lot harder - he had to get invited to interview at schools, then go through rigorous interviews and THEN he found out if he got in or not. I think it really helped him pick the best program for him / make sure he really wanted it - on top of helping the programs to decide. I only interviewed at GWU, and that wasn't even a true interview (it was more like a group conversation with two prospects and one professor).

I did see an article saying they were cutting 4% of the grad spots due to funding.

AP

Do you mind me asking what the second one is? What are your specific interests in AP? Fingers crossed for you!

Obviously I would have preferred an acceptance But I'm also have acceptances I'm happy with...it was just killing me not knowing!
