If someone with near perfect scores, 4.0s in both undergrad and grad, and 3 publications couldn't get in to any of the 15 programs they applied to, the system is rigged.

TTPB: (I'm the simultaneous email poster.) Sorry, but I am actually extremely interested in the gravity work going on at Penn State and am leaning towards accepting my offer. The visit date is not until the end of March though, so I will probably not decide before then. Obviously I'm not the only person who was accepted for gravity/cosmo theory, but given the timing of the visit you might be in for a few more weeks of waiting before anyone declines, if you are on a waitlist. (I personally have no knowledge of whether or not they're maintaining a waitlist versus just being slow on rejections.) Good luck! I hope at least now knowing it might be a few weeks is better for you than having no info.

Form rejection email. GPA 2.83, Maj GPA 3.03, High GREs, Solid LORs. First program I had applied to which kinda stinks, but got a few other offers that I'm super happy about! Best of luck to the other applicants! _________________ Accepted: 2 phd & 1 ms ||| Rejected: 1 phd & 1 ms ||| Pending: 2 phd (one with an upcoming interview)

Disappointed. May be my GRE score is not competitive enough. Congratulations and good luck for all those selected.

Emailed POI (LC) b/c I have received another offer somewhere else and was wondering whether to wait on the PSU decision, and was graciously (& v kindly) told I was rejected. I believe all offers and waitlists have already been sent out as of week of 2/8, as I've heard from multiple (3+ people) they've already received decisions.

Got into touch with potential advisor. All offers have been sent more or less. There's potential for a second round but it's incredibly unlikely at this point.
