  1. Anyone has any suggestions on what to do after got waitlisted except for waiting?
  2. I just received an email from CUNY recommending their master programs to me. Since I haven't heard about anything from them since I applied, I guess I will just take the email as some kind of bad omen. ?
  3. Same here. My second rejection after UChicago. Neither is a good fit for me so it's kind of expected. I still got 11 programs that have no news at all. Hope we all have some good news in Feb! It's an exceptionally competitve year. It seems that most programs got more applicants and many of them are also accepting fewer students this year.
  4. Most people admitted to MAPSS could get scholarships(if not 100%…) It seems that most people get 1/3 or 1/2 tuition waived and fully waived is kind of rare (but if you are exceptional you’ll get it!). I remember there’s also a 2/3 tuition waiver but I’ve never seen one (at least among the people I knew in my cohort). UCLA’s tuition is lower. I remember it’s around $30k, and they also offer scholarship to most admitted students.
  5. UCLA also has a similar master in social science program. The cohort is much smaller than the one of UChicago. (I myself is a graduate of UChicago MAPSS). Both programs are great and both provide scholarships. It’s better to choose the one where the faculty members’ research fields best match with your own, since the whole program’s goal is to prepare you for PhD application.
  6. Got my rejection this morning from UChicago. Have to say that’s what I have expected
  7. I heard people have received offers from ucla already. I wonder if ucla interviews people before admission? I have been so nervous these days. Most of my friends have recieved interview invitations from schools but I still heard nothing. I applied for Princeton, Berkeley, Columbia, UToronto, UCLA, UCSD, UMich, Yale, Cornell, Brown, Boston U, CUNY, and Notre Dame. It's already my second year to apply. ?
  8. one of my friends have recived final interview request from UChi this week (it sounds like UChi has multiple rounds of interviews). I heard nothing so far. I don't hold much hope?
