Does anything specific help with leaving the sickening worry outside the door? I'm usually okay till 4 pm, then a numbing and paralyzing anxiety starts to surge, and I cannot write a single word till it's the end of the business day on much of the other hemisphere, meanwhile I have to make decent progress on my thesis before the winter break ends... So, any reasonable suggestion is much appreciated. 1) I guess you can try to convince yourself that the first answer will come no earlier than 26 or 27. So before that, don’t even sweat. 2) Read something you really like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it's right in the middle with respect to the rankings of the schools to which I applied, so whether I'm in there or not tells a lot about the fate of my remaining apps. Well, I was really curious about this sci-fi novel, Ready Player One, maybe I can bury my nose into it, and forget about all this. Thanks.

I've also compiled a dataset with previous results, but my time series is shorter One cannot go wrong with books. Best way to travel across time... I am puzzled that I haven't seen anybody claiming interviews in UT-Austin (I think they interviewed people last year). I hope we have good surprises between this and next week... In my dataset, UW-Madison, UT-Austin, and Emory should release results soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qampus Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) Hi, everyone! Any news for Northwestern applicants? Also, has anyone applied to the following universities: Boston U, U of Illinois at Chicago, U of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, U of Minnesota Twin Cities, Wash U in St.L, Mizzou, Pittsburgh, Mississippi, McGill? If yes, any news for you, ladies and gentlemen? Nothing for me so far - and it is scary. Please let me know if you get anything. Thank you, and good luck, people.

I applied to Northwestern and Wash U. Haven't heard back from either, but that's not unusual. I believe we won't hear back until mid-February. I also applied to Vanderbilt, and they were kind enough to send out a timeline for admissions. Vanderbilt won't begin reviewing applications until next week, and they will release results during the week of February 6. Perhaps the timeline for other schools is similar. It's a stressful time, I know, but hang in there! We'll hear results soon enough. Hoping you hear some good news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
navyir Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I applied to Brown, Cornell, Wisconsin, Northwestern, Minnesota, UNC, Penn, JHU, Georgetown and Syracuse. Not a peep from any of them so far. I know several dont typically contact anyone for another week or more. MIAMia237 and Tutankhamun 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerribleTowel Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Another thing to keep in mind - many schools on the semester system are just now getting back from break (e.g. Mizzou's first day of class was two days ago). Professors don't want to review applications over break and probably are only now reviewing materials. Tutankhamun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutankhamun Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 The first schools to publish last year were Temple, Rice, Notre Dame, OSU, UW-Madison, UT-Austin, Emory, GWU, Minnesota, USCD… all of them in Jan 20s… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I applied to NW, UIUC, and UMN-Twin Cities from your list, heard nothing so far. I assumed it was because I was going to be rejected by all, but now I see it's kinda standard procedure. So we're all fine, for now. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

politicallygrad Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Congrats everyone!! I feel like this year admission decisions are rolling earlier (1 week or sth). Does that mean there are less applications? Does anyone feel the same way or am I just reading too much into it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vbffx1371hcrbi Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Thank you all for providing updates! For all who are accepted and invited to the interviews - congratulations! For all those who are waiting for the results, hang in there! In terms of UChicago, Political Science department, after seeing the above news, I checked my admission portal, there is no any updates there. Neither I received rejection yet. Any ideas what that can potentially supposed to mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WKN081224 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) University of Virginia decisions are out now (IR subfield). I got waitlisted. Since the e-mail was an automated message to the portal, I believe this was part of en masse messages to the applicants.

To be honest, I do not know about it much. It was not a great fit for me, and I had to scour the department faculty homepage for someone with at least some connection to my research interests. No wonder I got waitlisted.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffeeman123 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Claiming my first acceptance of the cycle! I received an offer from UVA, fully funded. I’m in IR (will update the results page when I’m on a desktop). sktlab, TerribleTowel, vbffx1371hcrbi and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
