Philosophy Applicants Survey Part 2--A/W/R Outcomes, Application Fees, Decision Making

[MtnDuck]

Greetings folks,

It is time for Part 2 of the Philosophy Admissions Survey--feel free to share with other folks not on TGC!

Link to the Google Form Survey

Folks that applied in past/recent cycles are invited to participate in addition to current applicants. Knowing the information for past cycles may allow us to notice shifts in the current application cycle so all are welcome to participate.

For Part 2, we are looking at outcomes (A/W/R), the elements folks considered when applying, how much money folks spent on application fees (some folks here flagged putting together a fund of some sort and that requires empirics), waitlist movement/hidden waitlists (optional questions), how folks picked which program to attend, etc. 

No identifactory information is required/collected (email, name, program, etc.) and while quantitative data will be shared explicitly no qualitative answers will be shared verbatim (I'll summarize those elements/note trends as with Part 1 but want to maintain anonymity). 

The summary will also be publicly available and shareable once we get to that point and folks will always be welcome to circulate it around to whomever/wherever.

Now that we've mostly come to the end of the application chaos (well done everyone--especially with all the support folks have shown during this stressful cycle), just wanted to give this a bump. We're at about 90 survey responses and the more the merrier!
