Folks who have applied to Yale, your portal may already be updated (if rejection)

Yes, IR - I received the acceptance email yesterday afternoon but no change to portal as of yet.

Heard from Brown (accepted) about an hour and a half ago - email with link to portal.

Have yet to hear from any of my schools but in anticipation of the worst case scenario... what is the best course of action if you don't get into any programs and want to reapply next cycle? Should one enroll in a Master's + if so, are there any specific programs / institutions that are particularly good in terms of increasing your chances of admission into a top PhD program the following year? Or is it better to try and get an RA role (particularly if your research experience is on the lower end)? Thanks in advance for any helpful advice
