eggsalad14 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 To add a few more to top out the top 25 (and then some), using data from https://www.thegradcafe.com/survey/. Dates are of modal acceptances, and rejections tend to come a little bit later. ** for schools with weird data. To consolidate: **Jan 16 UIUC - tricky and no good data from last year. Based off 2017. Jan 22 Emory **Jan 22: Interviews and rejections for GWU, with acceptances Feb 23 Jan 24, 2018 Wisconsin Jan 25 Ohio State Jan 25 Penn State Jan 29 Northwestern Jan 30, 2018 Duke Jan 31, 2018 Berkeley Jan 31 UC Davis Jan 31, 2018 Princeton Feb 02, 2018 NYU Feb 02, 2018 UCSD Feb 05, 2018 UCLA Feb 06, 2018 Michigan **Feb 6 (approximately, results have more variation) UT Austin Feb 7 WashU (St Louis) Feb 8 UNC Feb 14, 2018 MIT Feb 15, 2018 Cornell Feb 15, 2018 Stanford Feb 17 Rochester Feb 19, 2018 Penn Feb 22, 2018 Columbia Feb 19 Minnesota Feb 22 Vanderbilt Feb 23, 2018 Georgetown Mar 01, 2018 Harvard Mar 01, 2018 Yale Mar 09, 2018 Chicago TheBunny and Dwar 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pancho Villa Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Looking through Results postings from the past three years for Political Science PhD applications, I found that U Chicago sent out its initial chunk of decisions on 2/3/16, 2/2/17, and 2/12/18. Is the March 9, 2018 date repeated a few times above a latest date on which admissions were sent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggsalad14 Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) I'd trust what you find on the results section more than the OP's methodology, as it's possible that there wasn't enough posted data on uchicago to get the initial (and probably largest) wave of acceptances. If they tended to come in early February they probably will come in early February. If there's demand for it, I can crawl through the results page for all the OP's schools later this week (or if someone else wants to do that that'd be cool too lol) Edited January 3, 2019 by eggsalad14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBunny Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Does anyone apply BU and know that when are they releasing the results? They had the earliest deadline in my list (December 1), so I am waiting to hear back from them firstly. There are some Sociology programs which people started to hear back in the sociology group, and those programs had the December 1 deadline, as well. I did not see the name of the BU in the list above but it is one of my top choices, and I am super excited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFB Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 (edited) Ohio State's admissions decisions will come out in late January this year, with funding decisions probably around the third week in February.

Thanks for the info. I was hoping Ohio State would be one of the first to notify, but I'm glad I know when to expect something instead of being a nervous wreck for a month.

Yes, but whether or not to call is up to the faculty member who's asked to review the file. So a call means you're on the medium list, but no news means no news.

sandmoon Posted January 18, 2019 Author Share Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) Anyone wants to claim the UW Madison acceptance on Jan 17? I haven't heard anything from them yet. I didn't get an interview so I assume it's a rejection. Edited January 18, 2019 by sandmoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcc123 Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Someone on another thread mentioned yesterday they had been recommended to the graduate school for admission so I would presume its them (although it sounds unofficial at this point) IcedCovfefe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
