So absolutely elated, this is my top choice! Still waiting to hear about funding decisions, and have one more school to hear from. I think I will accept, but only funding will tell. Also, my portal was never updated, even at this point, so don't rely on those too much y'all!

Email from PI with notice of grant funding!

The whole process from submission to decision took approximately 2 weeks

I'm shocked. Tons of research experience including an NSF grant in undergrad.

Was told it was very competitive despite being a good fit. Seems like very little people got in.

Honestly was not expecting this.

I had a 20-minutes interview with two POI on January 29th! They will make the final decision within three weeks!

Really thought it was a good fit. Guess not.

Got notification to check portal, standard reject message. No interview. Not a huge surprise given fit (I'm kind of in between psychological/medical and biological). Connected with several POIs early in the process who encouraged me to apply, one (initials AN) mentioned this year they would have to accept a smaller cohort so congrats to those who are still in the game! It's a tough year!

Told to check portal

I was really hoping to get in. But I guess not! I have Master's in Archaeology outside USA with 3.75 GPA equivalent grades

Hey! Anyone heard from UTAustin Anthro yet? Nothing seems posted

To the poster below re Princeton, to answer your question, it was sociocultural anthro that I was accepted for. Hope you get whichever one you want, sending you good vibes ;)

To the two posters below, congratulations!!! I'm still waiting to hear something back — Did you both apply as socio or archeology?
