Hey everyone- did anyone else apply to UConn? I haven't heard a thing- from them or on here- and they're the last school I'm realistically waiting on. Has anyone heard anything?

Claiming an Albany admit! I too was shocked at how quick the turnaround was. I was asked to interview just 5 days past the application deadline, and offered admission less than two weeks past the deadline.

I was with Dr. Elizabeth Sanders in the Government department back then, and I'm in the American subfield

Fingers crossed!! I did research at Cornell after undergrad and I absolutely loved it there, plus I think I'm a good fit, so I'm really hoping for good news.

Hey friends! Popping in to list where I've applied and the status of each as well. Wishing all of you the best of luck! Pending: Cornell, UC Davis, Syracuse, UConn, Boston College, Vanderbilt, University of Arizona Admitted: SUNY Albany (like others in this thread, I too was informed that I'm on a shortlist for funding) Rejected: UCSD, UW- Madison

I applied to SU! (Can you tell I'm a fan? lol)

I'm feeling this too! I lost my job in the spring and it's been impossible to find anything new since. I had already started my applications for this admission cycle at that point, so I was planning on applying regardless. However, I won't pretend like I have a solid backup plan should I receive all rejections this cycle- there just aren't many options out there! It's difficult to stay optimistic or calm when there's so much on the line for so many of us. Here's to hoping for the best!
