shazad reacted to Christopher Sun in 2021 Waitlist Thread
Yes I do think this is the case, that UCI is only admitting the 11 applicants that got the interviews, and only waitlisting the 5 applicants that got the waitlist. Plus, the results page also says that UCI is only giving those 11 people interviews rather than formal offers to satisfy certain university-level requirement at UCI. So I think it makes sense to view those interview invitations as de facto offers.
As for people who have received neither interview-invite nor waitlist notification (like me myself...), yes I think it is safe to say that we are rejected.

I’m the Irvine LPS waitlist- I’m nervous, I hope it is a positive signal for the rest of my applications, that it wasn’t crazy to hope for admission somewhere...

shazad reacted to wwfrd in Philosophy of Physics?
UC Irvine LPS, NYU, and Michigan probably have the best philosophy of physics in the US- Jeffrey Barrett is at Irvine, NYU has Tim Maudlin and others, Michigan has several philosophers working in the area. Otherwise, Columbia has David Albert, who’s awesome, and runs their phil. of physics master’s program. Pitt HPS got David Wallace from USC recently, putting them up their with best programs in the US for phil. of physics.
If one is interested in programs that might be a little less selective, I would put Minnesota and Maryland on the list. Not in the US, but the University of Western Ontario would also be a good choice.
Utah is mentioned above, but although they have tons of philosophers of science, I don’t think they have anybody doing philosophy of physics specifically.
Check out the philosophical gourmet for specific rankings, too!

shazad reacted to Ikari Gendo in Venting Thread - 2019 Applicants
I'd send ALL programs an e-mail, asking if they could provide any feedback on my application package. Then I'd ask the advice of my letter writers.
What is the topic of your writing sample? Maybe I could provide some feedback, if it is something I am familiar with.

Poor Rob - they've probably answered like 1,000 emails this week just from people like us. I can safely cross out "Be the liaison for a prestigious fellowship" from my bucket list.
