Notes |
| Northwestern University | Economics, PhD (F20) | Other via POST on 12 Mar 2020 | | 11 Mar 2020 | - TPB: Are you saying those waitlisted today belong to the "strong list", or those haven't?
|
| Northwestern University | Economics, PhD (F20) | Other via E-mail on 12 Mar 2020 | | 11 Mar 2020 | - TPB: I wrote to them several days ago. It seems that Northwestern will figure out a strong list and invite applicants on that list as well as those admitted to their virtual visit day...(sigh
|
| Northwestern University | Anthropology, PhD (F20) | Rejected via E-mail on 12 Mar 2020 | | 11 Mar 2020 | - Emailed program assistant then 2 days later I got an email to check my portal
|
| Northwestern University | Economics, PhD (F20) | Other via Other on 11 Mar 2020 | O | 11 Mar 2020 | - I agree with the poster below that all of us who haven't heard anything are on the waitlist. It's not clear to me what exactly it means for those of us who have not yet heard anything. Just keep putting out positive vibes, and the universe will send them back. Cool Runnings to all of you guys.
|
| Northwestern University | Economics, PhD (F20) | Wait listed via Other on 11 Mar 2020 | O | 11 Mar 2020 | - TPB: I am not sure why you are discussing that subject. Isn't it crystal clear that all of those who didn't receive anything in February are waitlisted? Northwestern does like that, a few acceptances and a long waitlist after that. That's also precisely what they told me by e-mail. In any case, those who were asked about other offers earlier today most probably have better chances (they would not lose time with unlikely acceptances...). Best luck!
|
| Northwestern University | Economics, PhD (F20) | Wait listed via E-mail on 11 Mar 2020 | | 11 Mar 2020 | - TPB: if you look at the notes of posted acceptances after March 12th last year, they were all on the waitlist. I am not sure but maybe waitlisting is a necessary condition for getting admitted in the second round?
|
| Northwestern University | Economics, PhD (F20) | Other via Other on 11 Mar 2020 | I | 11 Mar 2020 | - TPB: I don't think so because if you check last year posts, then you will
see that after a lot of waitlist posts at March 12 there are new posts about acceptances. So, my theory is that if you do not take any e-mail this may be a good signal.
|
| Northwestern University | Economics, PhD (F20) | Other via Other on 11 Mar 2020 | O | 11 Mar 2020 | - TPB: I guess so because I emailed them and the reply was just "you will receive official notification by the end of this week of your status".
|
| Northwestern University | Economics, PhD (F20) | Other via POST on 11 Mar 2020 | | 11 Mar 2020 | - Is it implicit rejection if I still haven't heard from them?
|
| Northwestern University | Economics, PhD (S20) | Wait listed via E-mail on 11 Mar 2020 | | 11 Mar 2020 | - The list seems to be super long this year. Not good for applicants but might be good for school.

| Northwestern University | Economics, PhD (F20) | Wait listed via E-mail on 11 Mar 2020 | A | 11 Mar 2020 | - TPB: not poster below, but I was just waitlisted as well. I did not email the department, they emailed me, same email as below
|
| Northwestern University | Economics, PhD (F20) | Other via POST on 11 Mar 2020 | | 11 Mar 2020 | - TPB: How were you notified of your waitlist decision? Did you contact the department as well? Thanks!

| Northwestern University | Economics, PhD (F20) | Wait listed via E-mail on 11 Mar 2020 | A | 11 Mar 2020 | - "I am writing to provide you with an update on the status of your application. The PhD admission committee is very impressed with your application. However, at this time your application is still “pending,” indicating that we have not yet reached a final decision. We understand that this uncertainty is far from ideal, and we apologize for the delay.
We hope to be able give you an update soon, but, realistically, it is possible that the uncertainty will be resolved only in the last week before the decision deadline of April 15. If you are still interested in our program (we hope so!), we ask you to please complete the brief questionnaire at the following link. We appreciate you submitting the form at your earliest convenience with your current information and can return to the questionnaire as many times as you need, e.g. to update your list of competing offers"
