I almost applied for a masters in the Netherlands (University of Amsterdam), but the professor I would have been working with couldn't get funding for me. Expand Thanks! Indeed the Netherlands seem to be a bit reluctant to fund students.

tardias Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 it seems like if you don't suffer enough of anxiety you don't deserve a spot ?
star1 Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 @lnik Do you have any information about Harvard? ?

Expand I think they've already gotten to the interview stage, like @Gaunter O'Dimm said. My POI had made it sound like I was going to get an interview... but I didn't. Eh. Not my top choice so. ?♀️?♀️?♀️
lnik Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 (edited) Just got my first acceptance! It's making me feel more positive about everything. (And I have my interview weekend with Michigan, my #1, next week.) Sending good vibes out to y'all. ❤️ Edited February 9, 2019 by lnik IsLaNdness, sedulous and phonotactless 2 1

Expand I'm unsure right now, but maybe? I want to talk to my current advisor to make a game plan- Chicago is a great school and even if I don't go there it might be a good idea to at least make connections there? Idk though... I'll let you know when I decide. I'm guessing you're going? ?

chomsk33t Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Hi all. This is my first post, but I’m no stranger to the struggle. I got tired of checking the results pages so often and decided to jump in here for some camaraderie. Congrats to everybody who’s received some happy news. And for those still biting their nails over GG programs on the East Coast – stay strong! I think we’ll have a fair bit of decisions being communicated this week. :’)
tardias Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 (edited) It seems that MIT has already started their phone calls... oh, well ? Edited February 14, 2019 by tardias
chomsk33t Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 I noticed that within the past hour, as well. If it's any consolation, last year they made their notifications reverse-alphabetically. We'll know soon.
sedulous Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 why aren't they sending out rejection emails!? it feels so cruel.

Expand right? like according to the results search, previous years stanford rejections were always on valentine’s day... like just tell me you don’t want me and go pls
sirprzemek Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 McGill sent out their decisions just now... it hurts
chomsk33t Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 Well, there it is. No go for me, but I couldn’t be happier that this MIT wait is finally over. At this point, I’m still waiting to hear from UMass before I’m comfortable saying that my decision is made.

Their deadline was december, 20, I thought at this point we would already know...
sedulous Posted February 16, 2019 Posted February 16, 2019 Has Purdue updated the decision status on the website? Someone uploaded a post on the result page stating that (s)he had been rejected via website. But mine still says awaiting decision. Hmm...

According to the results page, last year there were interviews conducted. So far, I haven't even a clue if they've incorporated interviews into their reviews this year. Also, wow @ the stuff about McGill on the results page. It was me who posted the last comment asking people to consider more thoughtfully the content that they're leaving behind for future generations of applicants. phonotactless and lnik 2
