First I've received an email from the system that says I am accepted onto the course, then another email from the department on the funding nomination.

vikinggrad1 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Is it weird that I still have not heard back from NYU, Rochester, and Vanderbilt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still waiting on NYU, as well, which is frustrating. I'm pretty far along with researching my other options, and want to make a decision soon! vikinggrad1, not@prof_yet and Anthony2016 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikinggrad1 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I thought several people had already been accepted to NYU. Does this mean we are being considered for the MA program, or is the rejection letter just rolling out a bit slow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert01 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Claim a Yale rejection. It was my dream school but now my cycle is finished and I can move on to the next stage. Plus, I am just astonished more by the sheer number of the applicants to the school than my expected rejection. For a program which consists of 15 to 20 students, there are more than 11,000 applicants?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that 11,000 number is all their graduate programs, or at least arts and sciences, not just political science. devpolicy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they just meant all the grad programs at Yale combined and were too lazy to customize it by department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Mangione Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Rejected from Georgia via snail mail. At least they were nice about it. This application cycle actually makes no sense at all seeing as I'm getting into places ranked higher than places that rejected me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoliSci-freak Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Toronto admits: congrats to you all! When is the deadline for you to accept or reject the offers? Curious because I am waitlisted. They didn't use the term "waitlisted" but said I'd be considered again after they hear from initial offers... Any info on the above would be much appreciated!!

This application cycle actually makes no sense at all seeing as I'm getting into places ranked higher than places that rejected me. It seems thats how things work in this area; quantified or 'objectified' 'spec's (you would understand what exactly does it mean - you are a Korean, like me) which have guided us so far hardly tell us anything about what would happen in our future. Actually, it seems to depend on the authorizer's preferences toward us. And our first encounter with the cruel and exclusive, true academic world that is very different from inclusive undergrad conferences or seminars that invite everybody who wanna join, I believe, was a good lesson for us to understand this. In my case, with 337 GRE score which I in retrospect, thought a free ticket to any school I wanted to go, I luckily got into NYU and U of Arizona while rejected from UMass (it was my safety choice based on rankings - absurdly, i didnt check how many they accept each year) and all the other schools.

WHC_2017 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Help needed: I was just waitlisted by Yale, and my adviser encouraged me to reach out to the Department. May I ask anyone who was accepted that who sent you the acceptance information? Btw, I am beginning to turn down some offers (like UCLA, etc) in the hope of leaving spaces for the waitlist. Good luck to all of us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N1234S Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I was just waitlisted at Yale. Does anyone know historically what the chances of getting off the waitlist are? Also, to my fellow waitlistees, would you mind me asking which subfield you are? I'm in theory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
