I emailed McGill and this was their reply: At this point we have sent out several offers to PhD applicants. Additional offers may only go out based on whether those who have received an offer accept or decline the offer. 😕

Nothing from McGill, I guess it's for next week!

I'm losing my mind over these results.. I can't think of anything else but this last pending application that could change my life! Am I the only one who obsessively refreshes this website and the application portal?

FYI: I negociated and they offered a fellowship. So happy! I didn't know we could do that. My advice to future applicants: always ask for extra funding if it's low.

No way!! That's exciting! And scary! *unlock frantic page refreshing and paralyzing insomnia* Thanks for the info though What PhD are you applying to? Mine focuses on language acquisition.

Same here. I'm waiting to hear from one last school in early March. I did get extra funding today from UB, which is amazing! I can finally chill. How is every one?

Just checked portal. Status is updated. As expected, I got rejected. Congrats to all admitted!

still waiting for an update, i.e. a rejection.

A.G. Yours?

I'm waiting for one last result from McGill, which will be out somewhere in March. I have no idea if they'll accept me as their selection process is pretty opaque. So I feel you. It is torture to wait this long!

@mintchocol8e Don't let it ruin your mood please! It's not over yet, and your worth is not related to a series of PhD applications. You know that there are only a couple of spots for hundreds, if not thousands of applications. The selection process is dependent of so many factors outside of your control. Plus, you can always reapply next year to other universities. I'm also in my mid thirties and it's alright, it's never too late to chase your dreams. Keep your head up!

Same. Also rejected. Pretty disappointed. Congrats to all accepted students!

They both received phone calls and mention official letters arriving today. Still nothing on my side.

Someone shared their acceptance results yesterday! We will hear from Stanford today.

Also received my rejection email. Congrats to those accepted!

No idea

Same for me, @mintchocol8e It's still Thursday afternoon in California, so I guess we shall hear from Stanford in 24 hours!

I also have the "Decided" status.

Mine still says awaiting decision. But I know I got rejected, since someone shared their acceptance at the PhD I applied to: Educational Linguistics, University Of Pennsylvania I haven't got the official notification from the university. However, I got an email from my PoI saying that I have been admitted to the program. Added on February 06, 2023 Accepted on 4 Feb Fall 2023 International PhD 0

Congratulations!!

Congratulations!

So am I! I know I got rejected because I didn't receive an interview invitation. I think we shall hear from HGSE next week or the week after!

I went through all of last year's application thread and apparently the status doesn't indicate anything, if not partial system updates. Some students received invitations while their status was even incomplete, and others were accepted with a submitted status. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

I regret applying to so many Ivy schools. My advice for future applicants: unless your profile is exceptionally brilliant (perfect grades, teaching experience and several publications), vary your applications, and aim at reachable programs! I would definitely do things differently.

It's pretty calm, indeed. I'm sure I got rejected from UPenn and Harvard. I am waiting to hear from Stanford (mid-February) and McGill (early March).
