Notes
[NOT WL]. TPB: (1) Regarding NYU, I sent that email and got this: "Thanks so much for reaching out and for your interest in our program. While we are not yet ready to release your decision, we can let you know that many of our admission and waitlist offers have already gone out. We hope to be back to you with a final decision soon." (2) On UPenn: I was waitlisted a couple of weeks ago. They asked me two questions: (i) Do I have external funding? (ii) Do I still want to attend even if I don't get funding from them? I would say that you should email them if you have/can get external funding, otherwise be prepared to pay upwards of 70k USD during your first year. My feeling is that they waitlisted a lot of people just to speculate on external funding. (I was sent this, though: "Fortunately for us, many of our top-ranked candidates have outside scholarships that cover all these expenses."). Good luck
