When you pay 100 an app they should be ok with getting a few calls

Looks like all of the big schools are doing that this year.

The stats those Princeton admits have are insane.

For some reason I get blast Berkeley finance emails too. weird. I get excited everytime I see one because I think it is going to be a decison.

No Berkeley today either. They have break today. Weird that they are like 3 weeks late compared to previous years. gah

Thanks! I'm really happy for sure.

Looks like it. Congrats to all they got in. Sadz I probably didnt

PSU - Feb 24-27 UT - March 1-2 CU-Boulder - March 1-3 UC Irvine - March 1-3 UC Davis - March 7-9 UChicago - March 8-9 UCLA - March 8-10 UNC - March 15-17 Michigan - March 15-17 Wisconsin - March 22-24 NYU - March 23 WUSTL - March 23-24 Rochester - March 25-27 Minnesota -March 26 OSU - March 29-31 FSU - March 29th-31st Stanford - April 9-10

His son is at Chicago in the Harris School and does very similar things.

WOAH! Congrats!!

Fit isn't as big of a deal for poli sci compared to the hard sciences. There are a few constructivists here at Chicago working with Mearsheimer for example. As long as there generally someone who does what you like you are fine . I dont think most departments like people only working on a narrow sub topic of ideas too.

Yeah they admit 40 and expect to get around 20. Although I find it hard to believe 20 people are saying no to Princeton but more than likely Stanford, Harvard, Yale, and Princeton share mostly similar admits.

Within the big 10, OSU and Minnesota offer waaay more than that with a comparable cost of living. And it is not like Ohio's financial situation is much better.

Columbia?

I'm really interested in studying attacks on religious monuments and sites in civil wars (maybe conventional wars too) whether by insurgent groups or the government itself. UC Berkeley would be the perfect school since Hasner does exactly this type of intersection between IR and religion.

Lol yup. I'm still paying back the like 1500 I spent last quarter for these apps. Ughhhhhhh

YAY! There is my Stanford rejection. For 130 bucks an application they could have made a nice letter.

Why does Stanford take so long in sending out rejections! I want mine already lol

That is why I want this process to be over soon. I want to get a hoodie and shirt to wear haha.

Awesome! I hope it comes tonight so I have an excuse not to work on my thesis But next week seems most likely based off of what she said.

Someone brave enough to call Berkeley??

Those are the exact three I am waiting for as well. I was expecting to hear from Berkeley given that SD and UCLA were 2-3 weeks ago. Blah. and this Yale thing is weird. People have claimed interviews on the results page but not here.

Haha truth. This was an eerily slow week.

mhmm. Mostly depressing news with Stanford rejections. Next week should be really exciting and stressful though

Congrats!!!
