I have turned down a funded offer from the University of Virginia.

They told me they already made funding decisions and I am not receiving any funding.

I'm sorry to tell you, but they've already made funding decisions at UVA. I was admitted in the first round at UVA, but received NO funding.

Received my rejection from Northwestern today. Well, my cycle is over and it is now decision time... :?

subfield: American--Public Law

Still no word from Northwestern, very interesting ... :|

I agree--I also am waiting on Northwestern and have a hard time believing that all of us who haven't heard are still in the game...

scintille: I can't believe she actually responded to your e-mail. I e-mailed her about 10 days ago and received NO response!!

"Top 30" according to who?? US News, NRC, you, etc. Please define "Top 30" when making such a statement...

Does anyone else agree with me that Notre Dame is one of the most overrated programs both in terms of the number and quality of applications it receives? From my perspective, none of Notre Dame's doctorate programs are terribly strong, including its Political Science department ... but maybe I'm wrong...

I officially hate Northwestern. They have taken forever to post decisions and they have not responded to my e-mail inquiring about my status. Luckily, I've already been admitted to the program I want to attend or I would be absolutely livid about the situation with Northwestern...

I would be very surprised if you're all that interested in Emory, given the list of schools to which you've been accepted ...

just breaking the looooong silence, that's all ...

I'd take Berkeley and Michigan over most of those private schools anyway, but hey that's just me. :wink:

they are targeting 12 and admitting 11 ... good strategy!!
