Why did you panic hide when nobody else posted? I didn't hear back from the PhD program, no. But I was told it's an either/or: you don't get admitted both (which makes sense) Because I overthink everything, have impostor syndrome, and am very, very dumb...
Securitystudies123 Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 Claiming an admit to Princeton’s security studies PhD program. Absolutely stunned. It is my dream program and is an absolute perfect fit for my research. I couldn’t be more excited!

Anthony2016 Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 Admitted to the NYU masters program without funding. Anyone else with the same outcome?

Almost every failed PhD applicant at the NYU is offered their MA. That's why I said it seems a bit unfair to the folks who applied to just the MA (assuming someone will actually take the offer).

Had I not known several alumni of the program, I would not have easily found out about the security studies program either. I guess since it is such a specific program with a very niche goal of preparing social science scholars to conduct applied research, they figure that those candidates who are interested in the subject matter and are a good fit will find the program. That said, I've heard from many people that they should get the word out more about it. The program itself is closely related to the political science department—sharing many of the same faculty and cross-listing most relevant courses—but it remains an entirely unique, standalone program.

I'm guessing I got rejected from their PhD program, but I'm wondering why they're taking so long to tell me. I also have not heard back. American subfield. Most acute case of the staggers yet? Fortunately I've gotten other admits but it's my last decision pending and I just want this all to be over...

Do you know if they do interviews for people once they're accepted off the wait-list as well or is it just before acceptance? I applied and was accept to UIUC. I just accepted my offer yesterday, so I cannot really speak to the waitlist. I think they don't do interviews. I did not have one, so I doubt those accepted off the will either. Best to you!

It was actually an individualized visitation, meaning that no one day for all students was planned, but each student can when they could. I went Feb. 13 with two other prospective students, and two other students went last week.

S-Kyo Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 Is there any one who accepted by SUNY Binghamton but will go to another school? If so, please decline the offer if you have better choice. I am waitlisted and Binghamton is my best choice.

Clytemnahstra Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 Did anyone get into Yale + other schools and plan on going to one of the other schools?
redfive Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 3 hours ago, Ayerbender said: MAPSS or PhD? Either! I haven't heard a peep. that said their site does say first two weeks of March. i'm just booking travel for visiting days now so it'd be good to have everything settled....
