But they're pretty upfront on their website about the lack of funding options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you happen to know how many people they tend to weed out during these interviews? I'm wondering how hard I'm gonna be grilled or if it's just to make sure I didn't totally lie and don't give off bad vibes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My impression from what I've been told is that they send out around 20-25 interviews. I base this on what I've been told by my supervisors whose past students got into DePaul. On a side note, is it possible they would only have sent out a handful of interview offers today, and will send more over the weekend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen anyone else post about getting an interview offer, but they're gonna be on Wed and Thurs and they're going to chose on Friday. Fellowships will be decided the following Monday and we'll all know then. And fellowship recipients will be flown out March 4 or something. So, basically, I think there's a chance they haven't notified everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goodguy1867 Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 For those waiting on Arizona, your chances at this point are probably slim, but they told me that they send out offers and waiting list positions until April 15th, so If you haven't received a rejection, you are officially still in the game.

A professor that I am very close with in my department completed his Ph.D. at Pitt in the early '90s. And his one of the most brilliant people I've had the pleasure to work with.

sneakysombrero Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 What are the odds that we're accepted/waitlisted at USC if we haven't received a rejection e-mail from them? Do you all think they've sent out all their rejection letters? Seem to be a fair number of posts listed on GradCafe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I have expected to hear from Pitt already if I was accepted? Note: My surname is at the endow the alphabet. I suspect it is a pretty long process. Both calls I got lasted 10 or 15 minutes. They gave me the rundown of the offer package, details about campus visit, and allowed me to ask any questions I had. The day is young. Keep your phone close by.

Though I was looking through past results and it seems the total number of rejections reported for each year is close to the handful of rejections reported today. So maybe there's hope for those who haven't heard anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

torpedofish Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 I also just got into Pitt!!!

Should I have expected to hear from Pitt already if I was accepted? Note: My surname is at the end of the alphabet. I wouldn't worry yet. I had a missed phone call at 11:20 or so, and just saw it and called back (But note that they didn't try again in those 2 hours, so it wasn't done in one quick sweep.)

lisamadura Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 I haven't been submitting my acceptances or rejections to the results page. Is that information compiled and used in the future? Would I be helping TGC out if I went back and reported all of my results? If not, I won't bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
