Oh, I hope you get in!! The annoying thing is some of the programs do publish the stats, just not the one I am waiting on (eg you can filter anthro yield rate here for UChicago: https://provost.uchicago.edu/initiatives/phd-program-data)... but I also understand that I'm looking for certainty and won't find it haha.
Fingers crossed for us both!
Who else is in waitlist purgatory? I'm first on the waitlist at a program that I believe does not "over-offer", and there are 7-8 spots. Does anyone know how common it is to have an 100% yield rate at highly ranked PhD programs?
Hey folks!
Does anyone happen to know if most anthro programs interview all possible applicants who they're considering? From my understanding, it's likely that if interviews are out and you've heard nothing then it's a soft rejection or possible waitlist - is this generally the way or are some applicants accepted without interview? Hope you're all doing okay.
