We all have access to the past years' decision dates. There is no reason to speculate. It helps no one. I’m sorry, I don’t currently live in the United States, and it’s easier to ask here instead of converting time zones to NJ or CA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uncle_socks Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 (edited) lol yikes it's readily clear that 2020PhD is someone's troll alt account and it's not even a well-hidden alt. even worse than the princeton results page trolls because at least those are anonymous. I hope they learn "their" lesson that stuff here is public and gradcafe does not have a nice deletion policy.

spotted Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 ANYWAY... I'm glad to have this community to at least relate to others during this process.

til1996 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 It's also good to get to "know" some of the people who will be accepted to programs instead of me. Helps in animating the mental images of my nemeses! AHD and spotted 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poliscibxtch Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I have been silently viewing this thread for some time now and I just wanted to share what I know about the UCLA results posted. I spoke to someone from the department yesterday, and all of those results are fake. He confirmed that admissions decisions have not yet been sent out yet (unless they were sent out within the last day, but doubt it?) Also, I have a strong feeling the Princeton decisions are also fake. It was explicitly stated in the email that they will be sent out between after Feb 1.

elnovice Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Does Berkeley usually do phone calls? Is this another troll or are the acceptances actually legitimate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am hesitant to trust anything on the results page unless they can be confirmed here. I have been able to confirm that many of the results are inaccurate. guest789 and macska 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
