3 strong LORs and one pub on law review. Studied there.

Accepted to the advanced standing clinical program with a behavioral health concentration!

Hi, I applied to the PHD program in Social Policy, and I am waiting for the decision. Earlier today I received a weird message that my application remained incomplete until the final PHD deadline of Jan 4th, and therefore my application will not be reviewed this year. I emailed them back that my application was complete by the application deadline and I am still waiting for their reply. Did anyone receive a similar message? I am afraid that my application was deemed "incomplete" by mistake and was not reviewed. I believe that this is the case as I can see here that decisions regarding this program were sent five days ago.

To the post below, I quite don't understand the fuss about all these interviews as the official call (for any of the PhDs in Bocconi, except for Law) clearly mentions that the admission committee "might" conduct a long-distance interview to understand more about candidate's qualification - but NO POINTS ARE AWARDED for this interview. So, it doesn't really matter even if there is/isn't an interview invite. I understand that the admissions committee would like to talk to you (and perhaps, only) if they want to double-check/confirm something that might be peculiar in documents that you have submitted (in your sop/research interest/other qualification - for eg. if you have sought for English language exemption) - which may or may not affect the acceptance decisions. As far as Social and Political science is concerned, no haven't heard anything from them. But, of course, it's too early to worry abt it, as the call has provided a clear deadline of 16 March for the decision. So let's chill and keep ourselves relaxed. :)

Reached out to PI (EP) for an update on a decision since I attended the recruitment day in January. I was, unfortunately, rejected.

I was already admitted to the MDiv program at the School of Theology, so I will officially be starting as a dual-degree student in the fall!

TTPB: My interests line up with social networks. From my experience this cycle, the more interdisciplinary/'unusual' (in a good way!) a program is, the more likely interviews are to matter. For example, no straightCS programs I applied to interviewed me before being accepted. But every information science program had interviews. This is simply because the interdisciplinary/unusual programs are looking for a more niche person.

Congrats to everyone accepted! To the individual who got accepted to the 2 year masters in social work include a post with their stats (GPA and related experience etc) I would really appreciate it!

TTPB: Curious to know which faculty contacted you. Have all of the accepted students been notified?

Hi, I've seen a few people post about interviews for the PhD program in other subject areas at Bocconi but was wondering if anyone has received an interview invite or news in general for the Social and Political Science PhD at Bocconi?

Was not called for interview- was a direct rejection

Email from department. Stings, but still hopeful!
