I am the post prior to this one. To the person below me: sorry, did not mean to leave you with no context! I got an interview invite after having had a good amount of contact with the POI prior to applying. I am shooting for physical oceanography specifically, so their timeline may be slightly different from other areas in the department. Wishing you luck :)

Unofficial notification email from Director of Graduate Studies; official offer to come in one or two weeks

Did anyone receive decisions for the biomechanics/biomaterial track?

Had an interview earlier this month. Received an email today!

Initially contacted Dec 23rd for an interview on Jan 6th (materials track). Basically they said they wanted to see if I was a good fit as the department is small and they have limited spots available. Received an email today that I was accepted. To give an idea of the stats that got me in: GPA was 3.68/4.00 in physics from an elite LAC. Didn't take the GRE. Had one publication as first author in a well regarded astronomy/astrophysics journal and one as a co-author in a conference proceeding. Research experience consisted of two summers in college (one at my college with one of my profs and another in an REU program), a failed senior thesis, and one and a half years (as of application submission) working in industry. Congrats to all those accepted and good luck to those still waiting to hear back!

ttpb: Take the result with a grain of salt when poster status is "O". A lot of scammers around here lately.

Hi Princeton Posters esp. those claiming rejection - If you\'re not already aware, there is a debate raging in the Political Science forum about the veracity of these results and confusion about where to see rejections in the portal. If you\'re real, would you be so kind as to post in the following forum thread a screenshot of the portal so we can all know what to look for and put our Princeton dreams out of their misery?? forum.thegradcafe.com/topic/126462-2020-2021-application-thread

Same here. No notification in applyweb, but also no e-mail. This is torture.

No decision on ApplyWeb, but I also haven't received an acceptance email. Purgatory.

ttpb: did you any receive the email from the department? Or just wondering how did you know the result?

TTPB: I also have received the decision update. It is situated right next to the "View details" link. It is a link that says "View Decision". The update says they have got over 600 applications this year for a cohort of 12.

To the student that just posted about the rejection on the Princeton portal below - where exactly did you see the application update? Are you referring to the ApplyWeb portal? Very anxious generally about all decisions this cycle.

Great GPA and stats, 2 years of research at a top 10 school. Happened to check the website, it said the decision was updated. Good luck to those admitted. Very disappointed. American Politics.
