Fingers crossed for what might be a huge week! nevernottryingtounderstand 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShowroomDummy Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I did not receive interview invite from Notre Dame, so I wrote a letter to ask if they could give me some feedback. They told me that this cycle they are only accepting 5 students for their PhD program in PoliSci, one in each of the subfield, because of covid. I am not sure this is the case for all programs but I am desperate. zoooxu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've applied both political science and public administration PhD programs. I got an interview with University of Arizona last week. My concentration is public policy and management. Does any body also got an interview? Maybe the professors at admission committee just want to examine my oral English. But I think my performance at the interview sucked. (TAT) I am not sure whether I will get a rejection. They said they will release the offers at early Feb. I also applied other following political science programs and my focus is environmental politics: Northwestern, UC Santa Barbara, UC Davis, Chicago, Johns Hopkins U, CU Boulder, Maryland-College Park, Pittsburgh, Colorado State U, TAMU (Public policy and management concentration). Besides, does anybody know where I can discuss the information of public administration/public affairs/public policy PhD programs with others? It seems that the guys at the "Government Affairs forum" all applies master programs. Following are the public affairs PhD programs that I have applied: UMich (Ford school), Indiana U Bloomington, Syracuse, U Washington, USC, Albany SUNY, Kansas, Georgia, Nebraska Omaha, Florida State U, Arizona State U, Rutgers-newark, CU Denver. If anybody get news from those programs, please do share with me. Good luck to you guys all and I hope we all can go to our dream programs!! Cheers! For UofArizona did you interview for the Political science program or public administration? It looks like UofA has a high ratio of international PhD students, as opposed to some other universities. Otherwise has anyone tried getting in touch with UCSB, Northwestern or Michigan to find out when they might release decisions? Sigh. I can't do this all over again in a year.

I heard from a POI that many programs would accept smaller cohorts, but a cohort of 5 is scary. I've heard a lot of conflicting information regarding the potential brutality of this cycle. A couple of my mentors at my current institution have told me that they don't expect it to be as bad as it was last year, as programs are looking to make up for smaller cohort sizes from the last cycle, or at least return to normal.

I heard from profs that it can be an English oracy test for international applicants, but I am not so sure if that's the case for this year; I also heard that from grad students that sending interview invitation or not may simply depend on specific prof's preferences.

Within that page, there will be a banner at the top and in the upper right corner within that there should be a button to edit profile and it will be in that.
