ayitao Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 2 minutes ago, weber131 said: Same here. My second rejection after UChicago. Neither is a good fit for me so it's kind of expected. I still got 11 programs that have no news at all. Hope we all have some good news in Feb! It's an exceptionally competitve year. It seems that most programs got more applicants and many of them are also accepting fewer students this year. Not sure how many more rejections I have to endure before getting a real offer. But it's Feb already I am expecting to be overwhelmed by results in the coming days. Best of the wishes to you too! weber131 and twolucky 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember there’s also a 2/3 tuition waiver but I’ve never seen one (at least among the people I knew in my cohort). UCLA’s tuition is lower. I remember it’s around $30k, and they also offer scholarship to most admitted students. They definitely do give full tuition and 2/3. I know someone who got the latter and I had ~2/3 tuition waived. I do agree with picking which program is right for you and that is entirely dependent on the applicant and their expectations etc. I loved my time there. Was it challenging? Yes. Would I do it all over again? As crazy as it sounds, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

letsgetit21 Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 5 hours ago, RGA126 said: Hello; One of my LOR writers recently suggested me to look at some MA programs that is still open for application as some backup plans. I figure this is also a great distractor or a positive relieve strategy for people like me who have not heard of anything from PhD programs yet. I also want to hear your suggestions: what are some good Master programs still out there? Yes! Consider Clemson’s MS Social Sciences. Most students are funded for 2 years, a lot of tenure track faculty publishing, and alot of methodology prep I’m not sure we can add linked here, but a quick google search will turn it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cappuccino336 Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Does anyone know anything or have thoughts about CUNY MALS? Masters in Liberal Studies? More loans but might need to consider Masters to boost application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weber131 Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 I just received an email from CUNY recommending their master programs to me. Since I haven't heard about anything from them since I applied, I guess I will just take the email as some kind of bad omen. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cappuccino336 Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Yeah, CUNY and Yale have def had their final nail in the coffin. Pretty sure I butchered my Rutgers interview, so that just leaves NYU and Princeton for me. Pretty sure I’ll be reapplying next year lol. Already starting to lick my wounds.
