Fall 2010 Admission Results

[ladedodaday]

one more on wanting to hear about UCSD funding info!

I don't know if Plisar wants an open discussion, but could we have a new thread about this since there are so many people who want to discuss it?

[gsams]

The admissions person at Berkeley said that cohort size would still be 20-25 this year, so maybe that is down from 30-35 they had last year?

I think a new thread is a good idea. Or someone could just copy and paste the PM to the rest of us.

Emailed Berkeley, they accept about 25 PhD students a year (the results are less than 10 I think) and I don't know - has anyone in comparatives heard yet or in public policy? Those are the two I indicated (I do health care policy and comparative political analysis of health insurance). They say they will notify by the end of NEXT week.

Where else did you apply? I'm a "health and politics" gal myself.

Yale is out... I got rejected. Look in the website...

[gsams]

Stanford (rejected), WashU (rejected), Princeton, GWU, IUSPEA (did my undergrad in poli sci at IU), Nebraska, Missouri, University Missouri St. Louis, Kent State, University of Washington, Berkeley, Harvard. Wide variety here, lol.

I've done both public policy stuff and comparative politics. My current work is a mixture of both.

Yale is out!!! Congrats to everyone who has been accepted!

[FrostedAmbassador]

Also rejected at Yale. Not that it comes as a surprise, at least.

[SBL]

rejected from Yale too.

I'm assuming the 10,400 applicants they mention was for the whole of the graduate school

[Rory]

spurned by Yale....oh well, at least the wait is over for that one...

[CrimsonBlue]

At least, they rejected us in a timely manner

[mn06556]

Also axed by Yale. It wasn't a great match, anyway.

[natofone]

Yale is out!!! Congrats to everyone who has been accepted!

Did you get accepted?

[serotonin_addict]

reject from Yale, that hurts

[CrimsonBlue]

Did you get accepted?

Noooo way..... not an amazing place for IPE despite Scheve's presence...... perhaps my credentials actually suck (oh well impostor syndrome..)

[It'sgonnabeme]

Curious about who got accepted at Yale. SuddenlyParanoid, where are you?

[blumenrat]

I'm a Yale reject too!

0 for 3. Good record this year!

[CrimsonBlue]

Come on Princeton and Harvard, let US KNOW RIGHT NOW!

[thatsnotmyname]

Rejected at Yale too. Ah well. At least I know one way or another now

All though I worry what this one rejection means for the rest of my apps...eek!

[scpol]

Looks like no news is good news today... no acceptances on the results page for Yale and I got (expected) rejections from Emory and Northwestern. Seems others did as well. They're really laying it on today!

[LordNorth]

Rejected at Cambridge. Disappointing but not totally unexpected. And, I think I would have chosen UT-Austin over staying in the UK at any rate. Although it would have been nice to get in...

[APGradApplicant]

Would have been rejected at Yale but decided to save the money on the application fee

[SBL]

All it takes is one. And I gotta say, well done.

Edit: This was directed at LordNorth haha

BTW, why am I not hearing back from UCSD? Is it because I applied to their joint degree program? Has anyone applied to its joint degree program with GRE cutoffs specifically mentioned?

[FairGame]

In at UVA! (American Politics)

I'm thrilled.
