- Hey y'all! This forum has gotten me through some seriously hard times the last two years, so I thought the least I could do was post my results. This is my second time applying for Brown PhD (and third time applying for Brown overall... I applied ED as an undergrad and also got the ax), and between then and now I went on to do a master's and continued developing my research. My application and writing sample both changed quite a bit. I was devastated last year when I got rejected, but it never hurts to try again. If you don't know, the admissions committee (i.e. the specific and randomized group of faculty who happen to be reviewing applications that year) changes every year, and you never know who is going to be on it. Plus, new people join the faculty all the time. If it didn't work out this year, there's a big chance the people reading your app just happened to have a mismatch of research interests. Don't give up!
