I know I shouldn't be this attached given the odds, but I've spent so much time in their department for the last year or so that it already feels like home...and they've consistently released decisions on March 3rd for the last 3 years acc. to that Phil. blog with the dates.

I received an email from the department coordinator about 20 minutes ago with the offer attached. Full support ~$20,000 for five years. I am so stoked, this is my first PhD acceptance! That's rad. Well done!
MarcelPr Posted February 17, 2018 Posted February 17, 2018 A friend of mine told me someone had already been rejected by Princeton.

Are they done sending out acceptances? Hard to say. I head they were planning on only admitting 4 this year. So my guess is they will make 8 offers and create a waitlist (for an incoming class of 4). So there's definitely still a chance you could receive an offer.

Good luck to you!

philoguy Posted February 17, 2018 Posted February 17, 2018 Hey, what is the name of this Facebook group/are more people posting there? Just trying to figure out where I am while slowly losing hope. Wustl, umd, and Wisconsin were all schools I thought would be nice fits and it's looking like all acceptances have been sent out for each. I've only heard back from one school which was a rejection from ubc, so just looking for a glimmer of hope at this point.

rb1 Posted February 17, 2018 Posted February 17, 2018 just want to rant - so far with a handful of rejections from PhD programs and 1 acceptance from an MA (not top choice, poor funding) - that (1) this a very prolonged predicament for those of us with less options to choose from than what we'd like and that (2) the lingering hope for the next 2 weeks is a dangerous thing! Huge respect for the person accepted by Brown after a second Masters - you've kept the good fight and i sincerely wish you decades of success ahead.
philosophyswede Posted February 17, 2018 Posted February 17, 2018 So far I've had an acceptance (with full funding) from UIUC, and no news at all from any of the other 11 I applied to. Seem to have managed to apply to all the places that give responses out late! This is unbearably stressful but at least we know it'll all be behind us soon! Anyone here claim the other UIUC acceptance and wouldn't mind telling me what your AOIs are?
thehegeldialectic Posted February 17, 2018 Posted February 17, 2018 Not sure if I posted this, but I got a University of Kentucky acceptance on Monday. 1a/1w/2r/ out of 14. lyellgeo 1
Humever Posted February 17, 2018 Posted February 17, 2018 OMG, just accepted to Pittsburgh! MishaPanda, quinessloopypun, GuanilosIsland and 5 others 2 6
