Physics Graduate School Admission Results

CMX, e-mail to check the portal.

Interests: novel materials. NO pub. Receive an interview in January, and present my research work within 30min. My project is somewhat related to the area of the interviewer, but he also kindly recommended some other professors in the department who I could contact with.

I had an interview with a POI

Had an interview on Feb 3

JQI Graduate Student Fellow ($38k RA, 5 years)

Astro decisions have been made: 8 people offered this year. I emailed PI, they told me about it. Try reaching out to your PIs for an update.

Condensed Matter Theory. Had chat with on PI before application + with another PI a day before acceptance. PGRE: 730, Final two year average: 3.507

Condensed matter, 2 preprints. I thought caltech was done sending all the notices.

Received a mail from graduate coordinator that said, ''While we are still reviewing applications and making our decisions, and it will be a few weeks until the final decisions are made, I think it will be quite unlikely you will be admitted to our PhD program. The competition for places in your area of interest is especially intense. I hope you will receive other offers and continue your progress in theoretical physics!''

Ignore Waitlist. Has anyone heard back from this program? (interview/waitlist/rejection anything?)

Email suggested that all SEAS official admissions letters are being sent in about a week.

4+ years of research experience, 3 Pubs

Ignore waitlist. Does anyone have any idea how UC Davis is gonna do the review without the resume and other materials. All they require is a very short SOP + LOR + transcripts.

Ignore waitlist. Does anyone from hep-th received offer from SUNY Stony Brook?

No GRE, No publication, Theoretical Astrophysics

Got an acceptance email from the department. Sub-field: Material Had an interview on Jan. 03. BS(in Korea, Material Science), MS (in Columbia, EE).
