Physics And Astronomy, Northwestern University applied for Astro PhD and didn't hear anything until May 1st, when I was asked if I would consider switching to the master’s program. It took until today to get the final decision. I'm writing this post to complain about how incredibly slow the process was. With this official rejection, my 2024 fall application season is finally over, with 0 offers. It's a bitter experience, but for the committee, they don't care about what you've been through or how hard you've worked to get in front of them; they only care if you meet their criteria. The world is very cruel. I want to thank my supervisors once again—everything I've achieved today is because of their kind help.

Physics And Astronomy, Louisiana State University Never heard anything from LSU. Obviously it's way passed any reasonable timeline, but I called and emailed to confirm and no one ever bothered to reply. Rejected from all 15 schools I applied to this cycle with my Master's in a related field, rejected from 13 two years ago.

Physics, The University Of Delaware Finally received my University of Delaware rejection.
I was rejected by all 18 programs that I applied to this year. I’m a physics and mathematics double major, graduated with honors and a 3.95 GPA. I have four years of experience as a research assistant in experimental particle physics, and two as a research assistant in applied condensed matter physics. I attended three REU programs, presented at two undergraduate research symposia, attended one APS meeting, and published two papers (well, one has only been submitted). I’ve contributed significantly to several open source computational physics software projects, and software written by myself has been used in published research conducted by faculty and students at three separate institutions. I was awarded one external graduate fellowship.
I’m nine months and a few hundred applications into my job search and have only had two interviews. I’ve accepted a fast food position and guess I’ll save up so that I can re-apply to graduate programs this or next fall.

Physics And Astronomy, University of Kansas I received my acceptance via email, but the portal hasn't been updated yet. I applied on a rolling basis, and the contact person was very supportive. They even opened the portal just for me for about 15 minutes so I could apply after completing all the required documents. After dealing with numerous rejections and feeling hopeless, this acceptance was a huge relief. It was the second-to-last application I was waiting to hear back from.
