By the way, @ApplyingToGradSchools I just noticed that UBC extended their deadline to yesterday, so that would be why they will not be reviewing applications until the 15th. I wonder why they decided to extend!

This is fantastic. Thank you!

I've got accepted to Kings College London! (yay)! It's an unconditional offer to the Masters program with no funding (less yay)! It's the first place I've heard from and at least I'm in SOMEWHERE! Honestly, I'm thrilled to at least know that I will be going somewhere in the fall, even if it isn't my first choice.

I've applied to the UBC PhD program but have checked the box that says I would also take admission to the MA. I've applied to both MA and PhD programs generally though.

Yeah I mean I've been in touch with someone there (not for a few weeks, mind you) and what they told me was that in order to be considered for the University Fellowship that they announced a few months ago, everything had to be in BEFORE January 1st. This leads me to believe that they may have already started reviewing applications but, I could be wrong.

They haven't even started?! How can that possibly be? May I ask who you were in touch with? UBC is my top choice, which is why I am wondering!

Thanks! I've got a few friends across the pond and I've heard good things about their department especially in the area's of Philosophy of Mind and Cognitive Science. I checked out the faculty and there are a few people doing work that I am quite interested in! Plus, I'm ready to be out of Trump's America (though, unfortunately, I don't know how much better London will be right now).

Hi everyone! I recently finished an undergrad degree in philosophy with a minor in neuroscience (would have done a double major but my school didn't offer it). Coming from a small, public, liberal arts school in NC. I've been spending the past year-or-so applying to schools and working full time in Information Systems. I've only applied to 7 programs (both MA's and PhD's) and now, after reading some of the other posts in here, I am worrying that maybe I should have applied to more. Here are the places I've applied: University of British Columbia, Simon Fraser, Brock University, Harvard, NYU, King's College London, and Brandeis. I've already heard from KCL (on 2/3 via email and then their website) and have been accepted with an "unconditional offer," yay! No funding though, so, I am still holding out for that. Good luck to everyone! Edit: I forgot to mention that my AOI's are philosophy of cognitive science, philosophy of mind, neurophenomenology, philosophy of science, and Buddhist philosophy.

Thanks for taking this on, Sam! I am wondering about the possibility of adding UK and Canadian schools to the list (UBC, Simon Fraser, Brock, KCL, Edinburgh...)?
