Graduate School Admission Results

The program was not taking undergrad students but did not advertise it on its website.

Thank you for applying to Princeton University's Graduate School for the 2023-24 academic year. While I assure you that the materials you submitted were carefully reviewed by the faculty in the Department of Anthropology, I regret to inform you the department did not recommend your admission for the upcoming academic year. The number of admission offers available at Princeton for entering graduate students is extremely limited, and we cannot offer admission to all applicants who are well qualified. Indeed, many departments have applicants who could be admitted if it were possible to accommodate additional students. Our decisions take into account not only the applicants' merits but also the suitability of the programs to the candidates' expressed interests. Our goal is to achieve a sound match between the strengths of our programs and the interests of the relatively small number of outstanding students that can be accommodated. Unfortunately, due to the volume of applications which we receive, it is not possible for the department or the Graduate School to go back and review applications to justify the denial or offer advice on fortifying a future application. I wish you success in your plans for graduate study and thank you for considering Princeton University.

Had great interview with PI in the fall, research project aligned... Not necessarily surprised about this one but still stings.

Ignore waitlist and apologies for second post, anyone heard from villanova?

"Congratulations! On behalf of the INI Admissions Committee, I am pleased to inform you of your admission into the Information Networking Institute (INI)'s MS in Information Networking - Advanced Study for the Fall 2023 term. Please use this time between now and the deposit deadline on April 15th to research your program and make an informed decision. We encourage you to reach out to us with any questions and participate in our admitted student events. " They also have a weird incentive to accept early "For students who are ready to make their enrollment decision NOW and submit the online decision notification form by April 1st, we will offer you $500 toward your tuition at the start of the Fall semester. This is separate from any INI funding offers you might receive. All students will receive INI funding notification in early March."
