Pillcopata Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 A professor from Harvard GSAS called an applicant yesterday and admitted her/him (according to grad cafe's polisci admission results page). Has anyone else heard from Harvard? Could this have been spam? #Asking4AFriend

Mine still shows "You application is under review." I assume it is already a rejection. My portal updated yesterday, but the email came out last Friday, so there was definitely a lag but it has been updated. In other news- I got a rejection email from Emory. A bummer but it makes my relief to have heard back from GWU even more real.

Have you had any correspondence with them prior?

I wish they could send acceptances and rejections at the same time or at least, in a short period, but not let the rest hang in there. gradhopeful96 1
pcc123 Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 has anyone received acceptances to emory yet? Seems odd its only rejections so far

Historically I know they've done some phone calls before sending the email, so idk what's going on here. But I'm also not trying to rule out that maybe there are multiple waves of rejections ???

taraeh Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 Any more updates/thoughts on Madison?? only a few acceptances and then crickets...

My POI at OSU emailed me and mentioned all of their admits have now been contacted. They emphasized how difficult the application pool was this year.
