- Notes
- Email to check portal. The process was so poorly handled that despite initially being my top choice, I was likely going to reject even if I magically got in last minute. Only contact was end of March asking about my other offers, and suggesting a potential interview that never materialized. Have MS, 5+ yr professional research experience, many publications, partial funding, multiple offers elsewhere, etc. Reached out on many fronts but couldn't get a response out of any profs...even the grad program admin I had to call because she wouldn't respond to emails. Congrats to all accepted, I hope the lack of communication in my situation isn't indicative of how the program is run.
