I'm waitlisted at UCSD and Cornell and will wait to hear back from them. My main AOI is Kant's theoretical philosophy and Leibniz. Best of luck to everyone! Thanks a lot! It's great to know you removed yourself from ND's wl. Hope to see more good news here!

Not having visited anywhere, Cornell would probably be my top choice but, restricted to my actual offers, my top choice would probably be Pittsburgh. But my view might change after my visits which is why I'm not going to eliminate any more choices until after I visit (before the end of March!).

Best of luck - and patience - during the decision making process!

MentalEngineer Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 I am now definitely planning to decline UI-UC by the end of the week.
kant_get_in Posted March 15, 2016 Posted March 15, 2016 Is anyone thinking of declining an offer from the University of Tennessee? I'm on the wait-list for funding, and I would love to receive a funding package there.

frege-bombs Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Just declined my Rice offer. It kind of hurt. They have a cool program. Hope this helps someone!

dgswaim Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Anyone decline Penn yet? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
Schwarzwald Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Who's trying to decline Brandeis? C'mon now, I know yall not trying to pay that money. Just send an email saying "Thanks but no thanks," and then mention in passing that you couldn't possibly take a spot away from the great and magnificent Schwarzwald, and that they'd be mistaken not to extend an offer to him.

My declining Brandeis is contingent on getting off at least one of my PhD wait lists; so I hope for both our sakes this happens! Schwarzwald 1
SMB123 Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 (edited) @Schwarzwald I'm probably going to decline, but not until I visit my other option (end of March). Sorry I can't any sooner, but I hope you get my spot if I do decline! Edited March 17, 2016 by SMB123 Schwarzwald 1

bravesball Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 Anyone possibly going to decline Wisconsin-Madison?
759 Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 I am very interested to hear if any UC Davis acceptances are planning to (or even think they might) decline. Anyone...? I was told that I am near the top of the wait list and it seems unlikely that every single acceptance will take their offer?
