  1. honestly don't even know if I care if its a rejection or acceptance at this point I just want them to TELL me gd it @ northwestern
  2. literally me just now except it was a shipping notification for the clothes I stress-ordered last night I love it
  3. I see a new Northwestern rejection that just came out today in the results page??
  4. Nope, that's the thing -- some rejections went out too! What a mess
  5. Best of luck !!!! And yeah, I think spacing decisions apart by a few days or so is fine, but it has...literally been two weeks since they sent out those acceptances! It's insane
  6. Agreed! I hope more come out soon. And also still wtf @ Northwestern just tell me already !!! edit: somehow the quote wasn't included? was responding to eggsalad re: more decisions
  7. Something that might be helpful is taking the time to learn a bit of quantitative and programming skills (R, arcGIS/QGIS, Python, SQL, etc) and re-write a writing sample that features them heavily (maps! autoregressions! etc) , and focus on it in the SoP (and write something on how you are eager to learn more, etc!). It's easier/more fun than taking a bunch of math classes, and signals at least an interest and/or intent to learn quant methods! Just a thought EDIT: especially if you are, say, trying to make up for a weaker quant GRE or a lack of math in undergrad
  8. Lol, right? I also just realized about the summer stipend, though, so total comes to ~30,000?
  9. Yes, around 94k! The stipend is ~24,000
  10. Omg!!!! It appeared and I'm in with full funding! Cant believe it!!! First decision of the year and Im pumped! I'm IR, btw
  11. Those who just got accepted at Duke - did you just get an email to check the OneLink? I got the email but its saying "decision not ready" and im thinking its a rejection lol
  12. Agreed! Would wait before withdrawing till you get final decisions and you know for sure.
  13. Same lol. Though I have a feeling (from what the admissions office said, etc) that there are few (if any) spots left and it's going to be a while before they make any definitive decisions.. Can't wait to get an email in March lmao. It's definitely nice though to see all these acceptances rolling in here though
  14. Just to answer the last two questions quickly - (a/r/w/p) is counting how many acceptances, rejections, waitlists, and pending applications you have at the moment. POI is professor of interest - so someone you may have mentioned in your statement of purpose as someone you would like to work with!
  15. Thank you so much for doing that and for letting us know !!! That's somewhat good to hear (but also lol @ the vagueness).
  16. OK not to beat a dead horse but omg I am honestly amazed @ Northwestern.. If they do the same thing as previous years where they just drag out the rejections for the entire month of February I'm going to... scream
  17. Yep, totally agree. Good luck to you as well !!!
  18. Me! *knock on wood* though for good luck in the next few weeks None of the places I've applied to have sent out decisions yet aside from Northwestern, and that's not looking too hot right now either.
  19. Ah, I see! Congratulations!!!
  20. Do you mean that all acceptances have already gone out?
  21. Interesting - I thought I saw an American acceptance on the 23rd. Here's hoping they'll come out soon!
  22. I know they're closed because of the weather, but I can't believe we haven't heard anything from Northwestern, still... Driving me crazy!
  23. I know I've never been less productive in my life than this past week ? Looks like we won't be hearing anything today though sadly
