I am waitlisted for the Political Science PhD program of the University of Iowa.
I am extremely sad and nervous. Iowa is my dream.
I don't know whether Iowa's waitlist is just a euphemism of rejection. The director of this program told that they thought my application was quite strong, but I have no idea whether everyone on the waitlist received this sentence.
Did anyone receive the same letter? Or the offer or rejection of the UIOWA?
