souwant2bcliche Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 There should be a place, besides my bed, where people who are having a PhD-driven existential crisis PRIOR to even entering the program could hide and cower in uncertainty and self-doubt. Life would be marginally easier. The bar? sociologygrad, souwant2bcliche, testingtesting and 5 others 8
mb712 Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 The bar? I wish I hadn't reached my up-vote limit already today.
Mike45 Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Didnt recieve rejection email from Vandy ... Whats going on?
pdoseven Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Comparative as well. Hmm perhaps we're on to something -- anyone else not heard/subfield? Also comparative, also haven't heard anything. Not sure I'd read too much into this, though, as we constitute a pretty small sample size. Hopeful, though!
testingtesting Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Also comparative, also haven't heard anything. Not sure I'd read too much into this, though, as we constitute a pretty small sample size. Hopeful, though! Also comparative, haven't heard. I also that just speaks volumes about how many people are rejected, however.
Mike45 Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 In at Rutgers, 5 yr excellence fellowship. So happy to finally be in!
ColtonLong Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 The bar? You win the Internet for today.
t.diniz Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Also comparative, haven't heard. I also that just speaks volumes about how many people are rejected, however. Also comparative and trying to be hopeful. There is an acceptance for comparative up on the board already so I don't think they're holding back based off subfield...
BigTenPoliSci Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 (edited) Rejected from Vanderbilt. The DGS cc'd everyone on the email with the subject line "Disappointing news from Vanderbilt political science." Someone replied all to let them know he got accepted somewhere else. Love this move. 1. I wish I had the cajones to do this in my cycle. 2. I hope this person let them know that he got accepted somewhere better.

Brandon263 Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 I've also just declined an offer from Virginia. Hope that helps someone! Hi, when did Virginia send out notifications?
Bubandis Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Hi, when did Virginia send out notifications? They sent out a couple of offers on Feb 5th to people that the department was also nominating for outside fellowships. Most offers, however, will be forthcoming--by the end of the month, I believe.

PrincipalAgent Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Officially out at Princeton... Congrats to all that were admitted though! It's an awesome program
testingtesting Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Also wait listed at princeton. Isn't this the part where we engage in a Coasean bargain where one of us pays the other off to leave the waitlist ZajoncSays 1
ZajoncSays Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Also wait listed at princeton. Isn't this the part where we engage in a Coasean bargain where one of us pays the other off to leave the waitlist Depends. Are you an Americanist? If not, we're probably better off taking our bargaining elsewhere. Best of luck to you!

Bubandis Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Did your portal announcement change or was it only the email? Thanks and congrats!! Oh, I wish that I was one of those already with an offer in hand. My post was only based off of the information of the results page combined with some of the posts from people on here who received offers. So, hopefully one of those people can answer your question
