MegPhD got a reaction from mjsmith in "Elite" masters vs. lower-ranked PhD
I would agree. From what I've heard, the most important thing is conducting research that ends up being published in prestigious journals - the school where you do that research doesn't really matter very much. I'd pick a lower ranked school with a professor who is in line with my research experience any day. Once you graduate, those published articles will matter a lot more than the school name.

MegPhD reacted to PhD-hopeful in 2021 Business PhD Applicants
I have not, other than a general notice (I think sent to all applicants) that applications were being reviewed and faculty will contact top applicants late January through mid-February.
