This makes 3/6 rejections. I fully expected this as one of my recommenders was a pain to get in contact with and failed to submit letters to two schools including Cornell. Congrats to the 4 people that got in! Fingers crossed for these last three programs.

States in the email that 4 out of 178 accepted. I guess I have better chances to see an alien walking on the street than being accepted lol.

"To the point" email: I regret to inform you that we are unable to offer you admission to our doctoral program. Unfortunately, the Graduate School allots a limited number of fellowships, which makes it impossible for us to offer admission to all the very qualified candidates who apply to our program.

Generic email. Super interesting program - congrats to those who get in. The rejection doesn't sting as much since I got a provisional offer from another top choice.

first decision via Email. Heard from a professor that because of covid they will accept a much smaller cohort this year. Don't know how smaller would it be, but would like to know how many are accepted this year! Good luck to you all!
