sgaw10 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 1 minute ago, Y_TheScientist said: No, just rejected. Guess I wasn't the right fit. They sent me this: "This year our graduate program received a large number of applications for graduate study, and the applicant pool was extremely competitive. Since we are able to offer admission to only a small fraction of the applicants (fewer than 15%), we cannot accept many students who are well qualified for graduate work." I'm sorry to hear that I am waitlisted but was wondering if they started sending out rejections to those on the list. Sounds like you have some good options nevertheless!

anx Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Hello! Has anyone not received either a rejection or acceptance from UW Seattle? I've haven't heard anything since submitting my application (I assumed I was rejected when interviews were sent out), and I'm a little confused.

I have not heard about acceptance yet but I did get an invitation to campus. Although the PI there already drafted two fellowship submissions for me. I guess it's a matter of time.

That's interesting about the government shutdown though. Thank you for sharing! 6 hours ago, Moods said: I just got rejected from UW Seattle, so everyone beware... Did you both get the rejection on the same date? I think I will get a rejection too but I'm not sure why they didn't send the rejection out all together. I checked the results and someone got rejected Feb 4 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe we both were part of today's rejection wave. I'm not sure why there are a few left who haven't heard yet or received earlier rejections, though. Maybe still trying to figure out funding?
