There have been absolutely no other updates about OSU on here other than yours Edit: also, OSU funding isn't decided by the department so funding offers don't come until later. The Grad School decides funding. Edited January 28 by ugh08 2024_IR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anonymous8_8 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 (edited) As a second-time applicant I just want to point out that this year’s mood seems unnecessarily intense. Remember: your result is going to be released on your end. No one here can change that. Other people telling you (free of charge) their accept/rej is a potentially informative message for you that you may or may not benefit from. If you don’t believe it, you could always walk away. On a more general note, this should be a friendly community; it is the way it is because we don’t ask too much from other people and show true appreciation when they offer advice/support. It’s not a place to dump your anxiety on others by throwing very personal comments or pushing potential audience to forfeit their offer before its due.  Edited January 28 by Anonymous8_8 nyalagyal, aeroauk, ugh08 and 5 others 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was reading the thread from last year and it had a lot better vibes than this one. Communicating online can be tricky. It is easier to hide behind a screen and be rude, but it is also easier to misread tone and intention when reading messages. Let's all just try to have patience with each other and not subject others to our personal stresses and anxieties. We are all going through a similar situation. Anonymous8_8 and nyalagyal 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys, I'm out of this forum for good. It's absolutely mindblowing that you are seriously discussing what I said, in good faith, as a general recommendation three days ago. I wish you all the best, for real, and from the bottom of my heart, I hope you understand the dimensions of the journey you are about to start. The best to all.

There was a lot of people who talked about Ohio State's funding being weird in last year's forum on here.

politicalscience33 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Hi all -- random question! Do graduate programs typically provide a laptop/electronics? My laptop is slowwww and old, and I do not want to buy a new one if graduate programs typically provide it. Thanks! Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought we might hear it back during the late Jan, but obviously Duke was still doing interviews several days ago (at least from this thread). Fingers crossed!

Polisci24 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 (edited) Just for the reference. From last year's posts, all Princeton posts in late Jan turned out to be trolls, they sent out acceptances and rejections at the same day (February 6th). It might be true Princeton sent out acceptances earlier this year ... I personally will be cautious until people claim here.  EDIT: Feb 6 for acceptance, Feb 7 for rejection (23fall); Feb 7 acceptance, Feb 8 rejection (22fall)  Edited January 29 by Polisci24 update info jce8491 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may however be able to negotiate something when you have some offers in hand (it can't hurt to try). politicalscience33 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
