Was notified by the assistant director of admissions. "Due to intense competition, we must in many cases deny admission even to highly qualified candidates." I reached out to the PI since we had an established relationship where she expressed her surprise that decisions were sent out and lament of my rejection. Due to COVID budget cuts, they only accepted 1 bio-anth PhD applicant and it wasn't her choice...COVID sucks y'all but at least I know there wasn't much more I could have done to be accepted.

Same as below, no email, just logged on to receive generic 'no' message

Same as the other recent posters, I checked the portal and saw that a decision was available. I think CUNY should send an email notification, but whatevs.

No email just checked portal. Did anyone get put on a waitlist this year?

Checked the portal. Standart rejection text.

Wait listed pending funding.

Email to check portal and standard rejection letter. Disappointed to say the least. POI told me international spots were limited but I really believed I had a chance.

email to check portal. not a good match and not unexpected

To the poster below: I applied to the cultural track.

To the poster below about Northwester: I'm sorry to disappoint you, but from what I know they've already sent out all the interviews and finished them last week.

To the posters who received rejection notices- did you apply to the cultural track?
