Nice! Good luck. 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. 

Thanks!

Indeed the Netherlands seem to be a bit reluctant to fund students.

They're making their final decision tomorrow, but the accepted students might not hear for some time after that. If you didn't get interviewed, sorry!

Wow, I didn't even know they had already sent interview requests until I read your comment. How miserable T_T I think Im gonna be rejected by all schools I applied to

Don't worry! Fake news and fake results in results section. ?

@lnik Do you have any information about Harvard? ?

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. ?‍♀️?‍♀️?‍♀️

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? ?

Yeah I think I will be going ?  I live in the Chicago area, so it will just be a short bus ride for me to get on their campus

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. :’)

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.

Nothing from UMass, right? Their deadline was december, 20, I thought at this point we would already know...

That's correct, tardius. As far as I know, nobody has heard a peep from them. 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.
