aakhere Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 So, Ive been offered an unofficial position for a PhD at my first choice university by the admissions director. The official letter is supposed to come from the graduate school. Does anyone know what the odds of graduate school's approval for this?
fuzzylogician Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 The vast majority of the time this step is just a rubber stamp and you won't have any trouble. A small percentage of the time, if a student doesn't meet some school-wide GRE/GPA requirement, there's a snag, which the department is able to resolve with some effort. A diminishingly small percentage of those cases aren't resolved favorably. I remember one in 10 years on this site. You will probably worry until you see your official letter, but it's very unlikely that anything will go wrong at this point. Congrats!
aakhere Posted March 25, 2018 Author Posted March 25, 2018 Ah thanks ! my GRE scores are well above published averages for last few years, GPA is 4/4 for masters Hope everything works out!
