ohtimethypyramids Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 Can someone claim Penn? I saw one on here and one for somebody's SO on the facebook group. Are those distinct?
fake_barn Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 I can claim the UPenn acceptance! My girlfriend was the one who posted about it on fb (since I'm not on there). My acceptance is the one that was added to the google doc, but someone else reported UPenn in the results tab on gc. I got a call from Errol Lord this afternoon, and then an email with an informal offer of admission. Formal letter to follow. allcarboncenter, practically_mi, kakaz and 1 other 3 1
dgswaim Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 Just wanted to note: I'm happy to talk to folks about the dept at UPenn, should anyone have any questions! Duns Eith 1
Eudaimon Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 Any info on the Irvine (not HPS) acceptance?

Just curious if they're done sending out stuff. I know last year they staggered acceptances on the 12th and 16th--wasn't sure if that was related to any fellowship nominations or what. (Also curious when they sent out the email/if it was a personal response, etc.) akraticfanatic 1

(Also curious when they sent out the email/if it was a personal response, etc.) It sounds like it. Pritchard said that they are making few offers this year since last year's cohort was so large (17, and only one woman, so it sounded like they were going to especially prioritize gender diversity this cycle). I got a fellowship nomination, but another person from my program was also accepted and didn't get one. Sorry for the bad news.

Would have been nice to know this ahead of time so I could apply to a program that didn't prioritize "gender diversity" even more than programs already do. Stay classy, Irvine.

bluwe Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 I'm not saying gender diversity isn't important. I'm saying that if they knew they were going for such a class they could have said something so that people can make an informed decision about where to apply, especially given UC's ridiculous application fees. Seems like I threw $100 in the trash.
