Count de Monet Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 arg! I keep refreshing my email to see if an email comes from NYU...but oh woe is me! Alas! There is no such email!
Viking Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Just received an acceptance e-mail from a professor at Princeton. Extremely excited.
Purled Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Just received an acceptance e-mail from a professor at Princeton. Extremely excited. Ha! Great news, congratulations!
eagleton Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Just received an acceptance e-mail from a professor at Princeton. Extremely excited. Same. Just got an email from a Princeton Prof-the best birthday present I could imagine. I'm just shocked.
wtncffts Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Moving day for me. Accepted at Western Ontario, rejected at UBC, and an e-mail from Vanderbilt which leads me to believe I've been rejected. But I'm happy that I have one admit!! I wanted to post first thing, and haven't read the most recent posts, but congrats to everyone else who got admits today!

explodingstressball Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Just received an acceptance e-mail from a professor at Princeton. Extremely excited. What subfield did you apply in, if I may ask?
Viking Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 What subfield did you apply in, if I may ask? American. I didn't expect this after being dinged by Duke and UMich. Guess it shows that decisions at other schools aren't highly predictive.
wannabee Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Accepted at Western Ontario.... My hearty congrats to you. Every time I see someone grab the ring for the first time, it's a great thing. So much blood and sweat goes into each of these admits. So many years of work and hoping... Also congrats to all the new Princeton, NYU, and Rochester people.
PghPolitics Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Congrats to all of todays accepts. I wonder if Princeton will do the accepts by subfield. I applied Comparative....I guess its 2 more hours of staring at G-Mail for me.....
sorashinobi Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Applied to Princeton, NYU, and Yale. Haven't heard anything from any of them. I hope that means I'm not out of the running for all three.
balderdash Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Well, I'm absolutely shocked: the waitlist for Princeton is mine. I don't know what to do, who to contact, etc. In at Princeton, email Please go to Stanford. Congrats to all of todays accepts. I wonder if Princeton will do the accepts by subfield. I applied Comparative....I guess its 2 more hours of staring at G-Mail for me..... I'm comparative, so I think the decisions for that subfield have gone out.* Note: I actually applied IR, but in the letter, it said specifically that the prof's "colleagues in comparative saw the merit blah blah". So I'm guessing they've put me under my second choice, or re-classified me. Tufnel 1

adenlee Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 So sad, I've been rejected by 13 schools out of the total applied number of 18. It seems I won't be accepted anyway and anywhere...
Beach Bum Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Congratulations to everyone who got accepted by Princeton! I just found out I got into Rochester, so this is a really good day for me:)
wtncffts Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 So sad, I've been rejected by 13 schools out of the total applied number of 18. It seems I won't be accepted anyway and anywhere... I'm sorry. That sounds rough. You still have five schools left, though. Perhaps you have greater reason to be more confident in some of those? Good luck.
PghPolitics Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Man I wish I could get rejected already.... from what I have read on this thread and the results board, I assume I struck out at Chicago, Yale, and Princeton..... Only MIT left.....
explodingstressball Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Man I wish I could get rejected already.... from what I have read on this thread and the results board, I assume I struck out at Chicago, Yale, and Princeton..... Only MIT left..... Are you in anywhere else?
Croasyjr Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 In at Princeton -- totally shocked. Comparative.
explodingstressball Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 In at Princeton -- totally shocked. Comparative. How did they inform you?
PghPolitics Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Are you in anywhere else? Nope. I only applied to those four. Go big or go home (they were strong fits for my interests). I guess I am going home this year. Ill apply again next year.
slacktivist Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 (edited) So sad, I've been rejected by 13 schools out of the total applied number of 18. It seems I won't be accepted anyway and anywhere... A few days ago, you said you were going to apply for graduate school next year. What gives, mate? Edited February 17, 2011 by slacktivist
explodingstressball Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Nope. I only applied to those four. Go big or go home (they were strong fits for my interests). I guess I am going home this year. Ill apply again next year. I'm kind of in the same boat. Blech.
alphazeta Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 In at Princeton -- totally shocked. Comparative. It looks like all the Princeton accepts so far are in American or Comparative. Is there hope for IR and theory?
