Chiming in as another theory applicant in the same boat I applied to Harvard, NYU, and Stanford (plus a couple of MA fallbacks), so now it’s just refreshing email way too often. Thanks to whoever flagged the UChicago situation-that rumor has been floating around my department too and it’s rough news. It’s encouraging to hear about positive faculty interactions, though; those conversations really do make the wait feel a little more human. Wishing everyone here some good news soon… this limbo stage is brutal, but at least we’re not alone.
