So far, many schools have released their decisions and the remaining ones will come very soon. Given the circumstances, I thought opening a thread where the "already attending" users can out themselves for us newly admitted folks in an easy-to-access manner would be a good idea. In Grad Cafe we have the good fortune of having a number of supercalifragilisticexpialidocious people who keep providing us counsel and extending help in reducing the uncertainty of this process from the other side of the fence. We have seen a number of them inviting us to nag them about their current institution in the main thread and elsewhere. However, these messages tend to get lost in the monstrous main thread, and can be difficult to track down. 

 

So if you are one of the "already attending" folks, who do not mind sharing your institutional affiliation and are OK with Grad Cafe hopefuls nagging you with questions, please drop a note. This way we can know who to contact when we have questions about your school.

 

Let's say graduate students only - for the faculty members have their own thread. Also let's not turn this thread into a chit-chat venue for individual schools.

Great idea!

Long shot, but I'd be happy to answer questions about Laval (Quebec, Canada) in PM.

What's this UIUC you speak of?

 

Oh wait. That'd be me. I'll take PMs (can't guarantee instant replies though!)

I'm currently attending the University of Texas. I'm not on this forum much anymore, but I should be able to reply to posts and messages within a day or so.

Feel free to send any questions about University of Virginia my way (so long as you're not asking when the results are coming out, as I have absolutely no clue about that; sorry!).

I'm at Minnesota and welcome your questions via PM.  It's my first year in the program, so I might not be able to answer every question, but I'll do my best to do so.

Anybody have any insight into Northeastern or CU Boulder's PhD programs?

Anyone here for Northwestern?

Was so excited about this program, went to search for more *informal* information and found lots of people on the PSJR talking about its hostile atmosphere. Then, of course, they'll trash everything on the PSJR...

To echo jeudepaume's question and motivation, is there anyone around from Duke?

You can check out the Northwestern topic on the forum page --someone wrote quite a bit of information on NWU there.

Admits are welcome to pm me for info about Stanford. Just don't count on me to know things about theory.

Nords, I can answer questions about the University of Pittsburgh (I haven't been on here for a while...).
