I had the same, now it changed to "decision made". It says: please allow one business day to view your decision once your status on this page has been updated to Decision Made
S-Kyo Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Is there anyone applied for Northeastern? Any news?

Back into my depression hole I go. it is highly possible that those belong to a particular subfield. no reason to be pessimistic.

SDMSK Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Does anyone know when will the CIR/MAPPS program at U Chicago announce their decisions? That's probably my last hope now.
skhann Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Seeing that the "Decision Made" at UMN means rejection, I've officially struck out this season. I may or may not apply next cycle. It was great interacting with you guys. Wishing you all the best for your future endeavors. Adios! Dreamer109 and Albert01 1 1

The pool is limited mostly to those who were invited to the visit day on the 12-13th but they said they would hold rejections until they fill the cohort ( they wanted to enroll 6)

Accepted: Arizona, NYU / Rejected: Wisconsin, Princeton, UCSD, Michigan, Cornell, Wahsu, Northwestern, Duke and Rutgers / Pending: Upenn, Rochetster, Yale, Columbia, Minnesota, Maryland... Wow now I realize that I applied total 17! Same on the rejection. Surprised because they were my lowest ranked school, but I expected it after the radio silence from them. Albert01 1

Not great news... But news.
WaitingGame1718 Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Anyone waiting to hear from University of Illinois? purifieddrinkingwater 1
luminalcoin8 Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 What's the deal with Columbia? From what it seems like, some of the results aren't trolls, and they've been trickling in for about a week. Yet, no one has claimed here, and it seems like at least one GradCafe commenter would have gotten in. Anyone able to claim? The timing of their admits seems just bizarre to me Sartori, purifieddrinkingwater and Applesandbananas 3

BTW, do you know if they admit students to their master program from the PhD application pool? Thank you.

I do know that they snag quite a bit of Ph. D. applicants to bolster their MA program. But their scholarship and what not for their MA programs isn't that great compared to the cost.

I’m an international student and all I want is a school to admit me at this point...so at least I have the option to transfer afterwards. Otherwise I will have to go back to my home country and it’s harder to try next year with no contact with US scholars.
Dreamer109 Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 That is understandable. If that is the case, Northeastern could definitely take you on for an MA program.

possibleirphd Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Literally just got an interview request from Vanderbilt for the "IR group" as the email stated. Running a little behind the schedule their DGS sent in January! Stay hopeful you guys! WeberianStew, ShropshireLad and Stanford_PE 3

FWIW I have heard - and I might be wrong, so I would double-check - that MA programs at top departments -/-> real contact with the (top?) professors associated with the department. After all, professors will spend most energy on their work, then their PhD students. So you might have to put in extra work to get your name on profs' radar I was thinking of possibly transferring to philosophy at one point, and this is why I didn't look at NYU for an MA (despite having a top-notch philosophy program) Edited February 20, 2018 by Ayerbender

Jonaslb Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Currently waiting to hear from Columbia. The wait is killing me!
