I was accepted into Berkeley, Emory, NYU. Thrilled and grateful

claiming chicago rejection. Randomly checked the portal, did not receive email yet (but there probably will be at some point). 1a/1w/2r/3p

[Senochka]

Just got my rejection from UChicago, no surprises, TBH, no e-mail, checked the portal on a whim. It says my application is referred to CIR, but I am already about to complete my master's and see no value in doing two master's in the same field. This was my first - normal - decision, eight more to go.

That is kinda late ? thank you though.

Cornell always takes a while; too much material, too many applicants, very holistic...takes longer

ouch, me too

The first thing I heard was a rejection (yesterday) and now I’m so anxious waiting for another school ugh this is so hard 

[Obscurepun]

Same - no email but checked portal! I have no way of knowing why some schools accept and some don’t, it seems very random. In either case, congrats to all who have gotten an acceptance today/yesterday!

It's still 10:12 in Chicago, I expect we'll hear more from them today, but I think it will take a bunch of hours

Read this thread: 

Can't reccomend it enough. It may seem too dark, but the correct takeaway (IMO) is to not beat yourself up over stuff that is near random. It's about the job market, but it has its parallels with admissions

Claiming NYU. Received an email from department.

Longtime lurker, first-time poster here. Did you all have official transcripts already sent with your application? I got an email from NYU about half an hour ago asking for an official transcript and I am not sure if I should read anything into it. Oh, and congrats on your acceptances!

[PolGrad]

I still didn't receive any email from UChicago and no change in the application portal. Hope that it would be a good sign but I assume it would not, after seeing several rejection posts.

[FrickinPolisci]

Does anyone have any idea when UWashington would release the results?

[marxford]

Sending love to my fellow rejectees of the week! I got stumped by Berkeley and UChicago, very humbled by this process.

Anxiously preparing for two interviews for next week. What a ride this is...

[Fellowpigeon]

i haven't been asked to send an email with transcripts @xStardust

[xStardust]

@Fellowpigeonthank you for answering! I’m hoping they get back to me soon clarifying where they want me to send the official transcripts and that they accept electronic delivery so it’s faster

I was not asked to do so. But since they asked, I think you should probably provide one as soon as possible. Good luck!

Since they asked you about official transcripts. Can we assume the NYU not sent out all the offers yet?

[chairman mao]

Anyone reporting the NYU acceptances (and sub field plz)

Yeah, just waiting for them to tell me if they need the school to mail it or if they will take the electronic version since that would be sent in minutes

I’d like to believe that they wouldn’t have bothered to ask if they weren’t at least considering me seriously but you never know

Thanks! I think you have big chance cus its a positive signal.

[polisci320]

I believe it implies the graduate school, rather than just the department is involved. I don't want to read the tea leaves, but I agree with others it's positive.

Just received an email from WUSTL that I am waitlisted. If you are admitted to WUSTL but considering to go to other schools pleaseee tell them sooner

This goes for every school! No sense in holding onto offers we’re not genuinely considering.

[PolGrad]

Anyone who received interview invitation from Georgetown University? Should I assume that no more invitations would arrive from them and rejection would be on its way from Georgetown University Department of Government? 

Also, anyone applied for University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill?
