QajCR99 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 To anyone with a UVA offer, what does your funding package look like? Did they mention how many spots they have this year? I'm not an applicant this cycle but am planning on applying time time and it's a program that interests me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAMK Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) In the light of the result posts, I think I avoided the early rejection from University of Florida. Can I believe that it is a positive sign? Edited February 1, 2022 by IAMK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't say anything about the class size and its the same as the standard funding package they list on their website. https://politics.virginia.edu/graduate-admissions-and-financial-aid QajCR99 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably give out more than 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

probably.chris Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 To anyone who would know, why would results get gradually released? I see both acceptances and rejections from UVA but I have not received a decision. Are admissions committees making the easy choices (ie obvious accepts and rejects) first? From an outside perspective it seems like a needlessly limiting way to go about this process. What's the rationale there? (And it bears repeating: rejections aren't a sign of your quality as an academic, but instead often result from the whims of an admissions committee. I don't mean to disparage anyone by calling them an obvious reject.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most adcomms questions are a lot like how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop...the world may never know.

Though, looking back through the list it seems I was mistaken--no one's posted any rejections. So it seems likely to me now that they've posted acceptances today and will post rejections later this week. In any event, congratulations on the acceptance!

That's kind of what I'm expecting at this point, but it is also possible they are doing it by subfield? I'm American politics, and I only saw theory, IR, and comparative.

I'm actually only seeing theory and comparative -- the other student was international, but not IR (I think?). I got waitlisted last year and talked significantly with professors I would have worked with, so I'm still holding out hope here. For those that just posted (Avocado Town, looking at you! lol), what time did you get your email to check the portal? GAH i hate this so much. This is my third cycle and the one where I feel the most prepared for sure, but still, it's the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linabean Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Hi folks! Long time lurker, first time poster. Got rejected from UW-Madison this morning which was a bummer because I interviewed with them two weeks ago (+was very interactive with their fall research seminars, met with faculty in the department). I was one of the waitlists for UMinnesota last week, and I got an acceptance to UAlbany with full funding last Friday, so overall it doesn't sting as much as I thought it would. Still waiting to hear back from 8 other programs. Good luck to everyone and fingers crossed for good news coming your way!

hyccup Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 For any UVA admits, what was the deadline given to make a decision on the offer? I was waitlisted and it's my only non-rejection so far, and I'm wondering if I'll be able to afford waiting to hear back or if I need to look at getting a job.

The letter says that since UVa is a member of the Council of Graduate Schools, they don't require applicants to accept offers before April 15th. They cite this resolution: https://cgsnet.org/april-15-resolution They also say that the offer may be withdrawn on April 15th.

anxietyandvibes Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Hi everyone!

Learnerlearnerlearner Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Can someone please help me decide what to do? I indicated on my phd application that I am applying to the dual jd/phd program, but i am not ready to take the lsat so I withdrew my registration and won't be applying to the law school anymore. Should i reach out to the phd admissions and let them know? Is it going to hurt my chances? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbidyanta Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Question to those who already have multiple acceptances - Have you decided which program you want to ultimately attend? When are you planning to let the programs you won't be attending know that you are declining your offer? AnotherPerspective 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
