Does anyone have any idea as to what Georgetown's or GWU's processes are?

It seems like the Berkeley rejections have either stopped for today or are in fact moving incredibly slow...

Apparently all NU decisions will be out by "the end of the week"

How long ago did Berkeley start sending rejection letters out?

Soooooooo.....NU, UVA, UPenn?

This is interesting, especially since she said the same thing at the beginning of last week.

Okay. When did they send that email?

If I may ask, what was Brown's objective for contacting you?

I'd agree with you. One person posted that they were contacted by a POI, and another by the Grad Coordinator. Wouldn't the process be a little bit more coordinated?

Sorry to hear that news. I'm waiting on NW as well. The agony.... That's interesting about UPenn, especially since only like two acceptances have been posted so far this cycle. Are you sure that just because you are unofficially out means that everyone is out?

Yeah, this certainly makes it more interesting (and distracting). I don't know how to discern what it means, but I keep telling myself that rejection is still quite likely: perhaps they simply sent out some rejections on Saturday and will send the rest tomorrow. The thing is, it appears that they are a week behind vis-a-vis last year's schedule. If it is actually the case that they are on the same schedule as last year, then more rejections should come out tomorrow along with a few acceptances, followed by more rejections around next weekend. Maybe someone else has more info on this year's process? I know someone called the department last week and was told that all decisions would be finalized by last Friday (the 17th). If it is the case that everything has indeed been done, then they clearly are operating on a different schedule from last year.

Congratulations! So much for weekends (well, I guess just Sundays now) being "safe" (although in this case it's not a bad thing!)

No, I'm pretty sure the rejections went out yesterday afternoon, given the earlier posts in this forum. Or perhaps the online notification was delayed for some technical reason and wasn't available until Saturday afternoon. Who knows.

Isn't Bueno de Mesquita at NYU? Also, Robert Pape at UChicago works on terrorism and Wendy Pearlman at Northwestern does a little on terrorism as well.

A bunch went out yesterday; the ones posted today could just be those that were sent yesterday (given that it is a Sunday and I highly doubt that the department would be working today). EDIT: for clarity purposes
