Thank you! Yes, I have been speaking to Profs and grad students at each place, just trying to get as much info as possible. I think people outside of the institutions can sometimes give a good analysis of the general reputation in the field etc. But point taken!

Hi all, for reasons that have to do with my partner's job, I have to make my decision much sooner than April 15. Right now I have narrowed my options to Cornell vs. Vanderbilt (I am IR). Does anyone have any thoughts on the strengths/weaknesses of those programs? Reputation in IR field? Emphasis on quant vs qual? Feel free to DM me if so. Thanks!

Congratulations!! Amazing accomplishment. Did your portal update yet, or just the call?

Generally I think it's a bad idea. Most programs have a bolded message on their websites asking prospective students to refrain from reaching out to check in on the status of their application. But I don't think it would hurt your application.

Only one post on the admissions page so far but nothing here. Seems like it may have been a troll but idk

Also claiming Cornell (IR). Email from DGS, no portal change yet.

Does anyone know if schools ever release decisions on President’s Day (Monday)? Or should we expect next Tuesday at the earliest?

When do we think Yale decisions will be released?

If anyone here got accepted into Vanderbilt and is willing to chat, please DM me! I'd love to bounce some questions around and talk about the program, since I don't think I'll be able to get time off work to attend Admit Week.

Are Yale results expected this week?

You got a rejection notification from Princeton??

Congratulations!!!!! When and how did you receive your offer?

Just received an email from UCLA to submit my official transcripts. Does this mean anything or did this go to all applicants?

Do we think that all of the Duke admissions have already come out? There are only two admissions posted so far, both on February 1, and I think there's usually more, right?

Did you get an email or just check your portal?

Is Duke expected today or next week?

That wasn't me on the admissions page but I am also claiming Vanderbilt!! Absolutely thrilled.

Oh yes! Sorry, my phrasing was really bad lol. I meant whether mornings, afternoons, or evenings are more common.

Is there a more/less common time that results come out? Or totally random? (Help, I am checking my email every 30 seconds in lieu of working lol)

Manifesting Duke, Vanderbilt, and Northwestern tomorrow.

Anybody here actually claiming Northwestern?

Another person on the admissions page is claiming Northwestern. Genuine or troll lol?

What do you mean? You think the Northwestern post on the results page was real and not a troll?

Is anyone here claiming Northwestern??? Someone just posted an acceptance on the admissions page.

Based on past years, it seems like Duke results should be coming out today. Does this seem correct to y'all? Good luck everyone!
