2021FinancePhDApplicant

Thank you for the information! Hopefully they can admit someone from the waitlist this year.

Hi guys! I applied to more than 20 top 40 Finance PhD programs in the U.S. and have been interviewed by 7 of them. I was waitlisted by Yale, rejected by around 10 programs, and have not been admitted by any of them. Below are the programs that I heard back from them. UNC Chapel Hill - Interviewed for the first round; didn't get in the 2nd round UW Seattle - One-way interview via SpirkHire; Still waiting for response Boston College - One-way interview via SpirkHire UT Austin - Interviewed; was told I am in the finalist; waiting CMU - Interviewed; waiting Rice - 2nd round interview next week Rochester - rejected after interview Yale - waitlisted; no interview I didn't see anyone discussing about the Finance PhD applications/results here. I guess I will be the first one haha. Is there anyone else still in the tortuous waiting game? Can you share any updates/news you have about the programs mentioned above? (Has anyone heard back from UCI and Maryland?) Another question: Do you guys know the yield rate for Yale PhD program? How is my chance getting into Yale? Is there anyone else also waitlisted/offered? Thank you guys! Good luck on all of us!
