sandmoon Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 UCLA seems very late this year. Anyone knows what's going on?
polecondev Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 late post - but also claiming NYU for Political Economy! By the way, anyone else applying to Harvard PEG notice something weird on their application? In particular, did a "Terms and conditions of acceptance" link appear on your application as an optional form and then disappear the next day? ?

How would Wisconsin rank in there? And does anyone have any general thoughts on how Wisconsin would compare to Colorado and Rice and how Colorado and Rice are? Im also interested in qualitative methods and it seems that northwestern has quite a few scholars who are qualitative methodologists. If you’re into historical institutionalism, James Mahoney at northwestern is an excellent qualitative scholar.

frankfrank Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 Is there anyone who accepted by The University of Iowa Political Science PhD but will go to another school? If so, please decline the offer if you have a better choice. I am waitlisted and Iowa is my best choice.

A couple of hours ago I got an unofficial acceptance mail from the DGS. Two weeks ago; I made a phone conversation. Good luck!
Onwarrdz Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 Anyone know anything at all about Northwestern? There's another acceptance on the survey page from the 23rd, but there don't seem to have been any rejections since that first wave. I know most of their rejections came out around Feb 22nd last year, so I'm not exactly hopeful at this point, but I don't understand what they're doing with all these other applications.

PoliSciPHDorBust Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 rejection emails for ucsd went out at 3am last night humanpinata 1
TheBunny Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 I still did not get my closure from Brown and UMass Amherst. It feels very uneasy.
scdaaljobe Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 Anyone have any idea when the UC Davis decisions will go out? I would have thought they'd be out by now. Seems like we have a bit of a break now before Harvard/Stanford/Columbia come out. Not looking forward to the wait. 8 applied/ 0 acceptances/ 3 rejections

But yeah, for the most part we'll be waiting until the end of the month seems like

While probably this year is going to be like last year's, I'm...still refreshing those portals every 15 minutes lol
quesadilla Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 Is anyone else worried that the professors they mentioned on their SOP for schools like Harvard are TOO famous? Like why would a NYT bestseller want to work with me (even though our research interests are literally the same)?

So you might be that someone, since you share the same research interests! Edited February 8, 2019 by sandmoon typo

But at least they don't drag things out like Northwestern. I didn't apply to Northwestern but I absolutely hate how this school handles admissions. TheBunny, peggy.olson, Onwarrdz and 1 other 1 3

magicdonhuang Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 15 minutes ago, trinityshot said: Surely you mean 3 AM EST... right??? But I guess even midnight local time is insane They probably programmed it to release all notices on 2/8. My rejection came exactly at 12:01am PST. Pretty funny.

I came up with a really similar thesis before I read their stuff.
schuaust Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 (edited) My application at Minnesota says "submitted-decided" but no result shows. I'm assuming they have emails coming out shortly. Anyone else seeing the same thing? EDIT: never mind, rejected. Disappointing, but that's OK. Wish I would have gotten an email to check the portal. Edited February 8, 2019 by schuaust
Theory007 Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 Does anyone know if notifications have gone out to those rejected from UNC?
