Physics Graduate School Admission Results

IELTS 7.0, MSc 3.25, Papers 3. Thought so.

6 years industry research experience, 2 years academic research experience, 1 publication (3rd author), 1 conference presentation (march meeting) My to-be PI and the admissions chair emailed me on March 12 saying that I was on a 50 person waitlist. The chair said there were financial concerns and were cutting admissions (combination of high admission rate last year and federal funding). I followed up on 4/14 in the morning and heard from the chair around 10 pm MDT that I will not be admitted. I'm very disappointed because my PI and I had been working together for over 6 months developing a research plan. We got along well and I was excited to work on the project.

Hi! Ignore Waitlist! Has anyone not received anything from Rice yet? I saw all types of decisions here but I have not heard anything from them. My portal is still the same as before, showing {“ If you need to contact us regarding your application, provide your name and this reference number: …” and below it is the checklist.}

Got top school offer, but rejected here?

"Due to the recent reduction of Penn's incoming graduate class amidst uncertainties due to government funding, unfortunately, you are currently waitlisted for our graduate program."

Emailed to check portal.

M1 ICFP, Rejected without interview
