I applied for a Phd in Poliical Science. I was rejected in the PhD, but I was admitted in the CIR Program at the University of Chicago.

Really bummed out.

Applied to EME and pure Econ. Accepted to pure Econ

Email from the Department

Grad GPA. I’m quite surprised to hear back from them so late. It’s a good offer, but I had considered the silence as a rejection and accepted another offer literally today. :( 5a/3w/2r.

As expected, we all know this program is highly competitive, not for me at least.

Two MA degrees. Completed both of them with a 4.0 GPA. A couple of first author papers in peer-reviewed journals, one of them in a Q1 journal. However, they correspond to a different area of study. Several years of research experience.

CP subfield. Still waiting for funding

I was frankly a poor fit from the start; the faculty member I was most interested in working with was in a different department.

Portal update, this one is my last pending application. it's too late.. but already got into higher ranked program and accepted it, really a tough circle, good luck to everyone.
