Just got my rejection email.

The silence is painful, right? We need some closure. Maybe tomorrow at this point.

Curious if there are any waitlists or rejections to report?

Congratulations!! For the rest of us, it sounds like it is time to regroup and consider our other offers! Good luck to everybody.

Are you an MPA or MPP? Also, CONGRATULATIONS to everyone who got in! All the best to each of you.

Did they say that they were MPAs? I'm just going off of last year's thread. It seemed as though they let the admitted students all know the day before, then released the bad news to everyone else. I need to stop hitting refresh on my email inbox and go do something productive now.

OMG CONGRATS!! That is so exciting. What time did the email come through? If I don't hear today, I'm assuming that it's a no as that is what they have done in previous years...

Congratulations!! How exciting!! They accept so few PhD students so I'm sure that was no easy feat. Was this your first choice? I'm waiting to hear back about the MPP...

It looks as though a PhD student was already notified on March 8th. Check it out: https://www.thegradcafe.com/survey/index.php?q=wws

4 days 2 hours 9 minutes but who's counting ALMOST!

Thank you for sharing. It's good to know that this is at least really happening...heh. That's nice of them to try to make us all collectively feel better if we don't get in. Ugh-- my nerves!

Check out the results page on here for past years. It seemed as though PhD students were notified earlier and were sometimes getting phone calls. Good luck!

I would think that they would have to be near settled. December 1st 2018 is a very long time ago. I know they decide on PhD students first, but if past years are anything to go by, they would have only two full business weeks left to solidify the cohort (I have seen that people sometimes receive notifications as early as March 10th). Somedays I find myself feeling convinced that I will get in and other days, convinced that there isn't a snowball's chance in hell. Good luck to both of you as well.

I searched for a Princeton WWS Fall 2019 thread and couldn't find one. Anyone else feeling like time is moving at an unbearable crawl towards March 15th? I didn't realize how disruptive not hearing back from them would be. I have other major offers that are on hold. I feel like if I don't get in I will deal with it. I just want to know!
