Congratulations to those admitted! By the way, has anyone heard from Economic Analysis & Policy?

Same offer as posted below

I received the same waitlist offer as the post below.

TPB: I think one reason why they are holding rejections from now is that they are waiting to fill their places in case someone declined the offer. That could be an informal waitlisting for the programs that don't officially have that policy. Another reason could be that they are sending acceptances out on a rolling basis (instead of in batches).

I'm honestly shocked. I thought it was a great fit...

Offered a spot on the waitlist. Said that if a funded position becomes available, they will immediately receive a revised offer of admission. Also, mentioned that there are over 150 applicants for 10 students. Is there anyone getting the same offer?

TTPB: I contacted UPEP about funding before application. UPEP receives funding from both Nicholas and Sanford, so UPEP Ph.D. students can still receive funding even if Nicholas does not provide any funding.

Kinda disappointing, although I didn't expect to get in regardless. Congrats to those who were accepted.

No interview

@ previous poster who was waitlisted- how did you get your decision already? Was it on your portal

WTF?????????? get back my application fee In an effort to provide extra time and funding to our current PhD students, the Nicholas School and Duke Marine Lab have made the difficult decision to pause school-funded PhD admissions for the 2021-22 academic year due to the pandemic. Some faculty support students with external grants and therefore may be able to admit graduate students. Please consult individual faculty for specific admissions information.

Offered a 75% tuition scholarship. Have been working full time for almost six years in non-profit/advocacy space. Good luck everyone!
