ugurcanevci Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 I don't think Stanford is done though. I feel like there would be at least 5-6 more posts on the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they're more likely the very last week of February into March. But it would be a nice surprise. The0ry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HermioneWannabe Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Claiming a NYU masters program acceptance, I will be turning it down since I've already been accepted to other PhD programs. Gik 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_Novick Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Rejected by NYU. They offered me a MA (1st "positive" news so far in this cycle - I use the quotation marks in the sense that I already have a masters and it seems that no funding would be available for this one). Do you think this imply for them that my application is not competitive enough for a PhD? Shirtless Putin's Horse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The0ry Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 So confused with Brown. They sent out bunch of decisions on the 13th (3 acceptances and bunch of rejections from what I can see on the results board) but since then nothing. And then 1 person posted rejection for today (which might have been someone posting about 3 days ago and not changing the date of the decision). Really hoping they are not done with acceptances.

Last year I was rejected by NYU and didn't get this deal from them. HermioneWannabe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more of an issue of them not having enough spots / money for funding / it not being the right fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted today's Brown rejection. I just got the email today. I hope you get an acceptance. I don't think (hope not) they are finished yet.

It's probably done and rejection letters should be coming out soon. resDQ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirtless Putin's Horse Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Rejection from NYU PhD, but "rejection" email began: "On behalf of Interim Dean Anna Harvey and the Graduate School of Arts and Science, I am very pleased to tell you that you have been admitted to the Master of Arts program in Politics. You may register for the fall, 2017, semester." Gik, Bibica, RevTheory1126 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a feeling that I have that different faculty members may send admissions at different time as it wasn't the DGS sending admission emails so far. I may very well be wrong of course.

PaperTrowel Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Also received an NYU Master's program "acceptance". No way I'll accept it given it's unfunded in a terribly expensive location but nice to actually hear a response from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krapp Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 In a change of pace from all the Stanford/Columbia chatter (congrats to those accepted!) is anyone claiming the CUNY acceptance on the board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
