QuantPoliSci Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 3 hours ago, PolGrad said: Do you know whether they only offer admission to the applicants who had interview with the committee? Me and some other applicants didn't receive interview invitation from Georgetown and I was unsure whether it would reject my application. Hope that both you and us can get positive news from Georgetown. Can't speak to Georgetown, but I had radio silence from Vanderbilt (no interview invites, nothing) before getting outright accepted on Friday, so while it is a different school there is definitely a precedent of accepting someone who didn't get an interview while others are being interviewed. coffeeman123, Gabbiew and Tutankhamun 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same experience here. Radio silence from OSU and Vanderbilt and then na admit. I’d say don’t stress too much about interviews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The forums for the cities are all full of 10 year old information at this point. Is it best to just post in the Reddit for each city to get a feel? Id ask the current grad students at your program. You should have a chance to ask all your neighborhood questions on the visit day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though this is not entirely the case with me (some schools I have applied to are wayyyyy far out of the top 20-30 range), I have so far seen just three rejections - and that's it. The good thing is, THERE IS TIME. Plenty of it. Good things are coming our way, I am sure. We just need patience. Patience is the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caa_17 Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 For those accepted at Northwestern: what's your subfield? I'm hoping they haven't sent the AP acceptances so there is still a chance, but it might be wishful thinking on my part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think Georgetown interviews every single applicant that they feel adequate, based on posts from previous years. But I didn’t apply to NYU so I don’t know. Thank you! I'll try to stay positive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PippenRabbit Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Can't imagine it's only first week of February, and I'm already counting on Princeton/UCB acceptance to withdraw or turndown offer like NYU/Duke to help poor waitlists like me... No pressure tho, congrats y'all and enjoy the happiness news! Absolutely well deserved!! Crossed_fingers and Realbadgal 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Repspolisci Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I graduated undergrad last June from a T20 U.S. institution so no master's degree. My quant GRE score was horrible which is why I was so shocked but I have multiple journal publications and currently working as a lab manager for my previous institution within my field of study so I don't know maybe that made up for my gre scores. Also, do not give up I've noticed that most admissions are sent out in batches so there is still hope! Wishing you the best of luck !!
