Rejected from waitlist, womp womp.

The sharpest mind in the room, locked away because the world couldn’t handle it - we live in a world where people dont wanna hear the truth but what agrees with them :(

Not surprised because this cycle has been extra vicious. Frustrated by the amount of time it took them, though.

Studied literature and creative writing undergrad at Hunter College. Decided 5 years later I wanted to pursue psych and went back to Hunter to take 4 psych classes to be a more competitive applicant. Applied March 1st.

Rejected but accepted in MS

Took longer than the 4-8 weeks they said it would take to hear back with an admissions decision so I was surprised I was accepted. I applied by the regular deadline (not priority) on February 7th and heard back April 8th.

3 year SDE with 2 promotions

I emailed the admission office around 10th in March because I didn't hear anything back after my interview. They informed me that I was put on the waitlist, and no more offer would be sent only if they heard from those who got the first round of admissions. For those who are not planning to accept this offer, please decline. It means a lot to me. I've been so desperate in the past a few months.
