Thanks for posting such important information! Guess people should take pre-submission reaching-out to POI more seriously in the coming seasons. Best luck with the Duke application. ?

What do you mean by "each prof. admits one or two students"? Is it that every professor on the admission committee recruits one or two, or that every professor in the department can decide the students that they want to advise? I feel the latter is less likely since that would translate into a huge cohort.

I see. Thanks for the clarification! Hope more people could be sharing their updates here.

Has anyone received some updates (like the admission timeline) from the DGS of Michigan/UMich or Northwestern? I applied to both schools and was confirmed upon submission by their graduate school that my application was received. Yet there has been no information sent directly from the department or the DGS. Wondering if I'm the only one. ?

I think it is more reasonable to wait until Jan 26th to draw the final inference. Self-posted results from last year indicates that most visit invitations were sent around Jan 20th, but this is because last year Notre Dame started their spring term one week earlier (Jan 10th) than this year (Jan 17th). So I guess the review process for PhD application also moves accordingly to one week later this year. Anyway, don't give up your hope and best luck!
