GPA is grad. Email that I was accepted off the waitlist. Already committed to another program and will not be accepting.

Admitted after being put on a waitlist.

Surprised, given I was accepted to every other program I applied (including Ivies). Graduated in '19, work experience not relevant to degree. No publications or significant research experience.

submitted my application 11/30/2021 and I have not heard the result until today, 04/15/2022. I was told to wait few more weeks and I took it as a rejection. Ridiculously long and brutal process.

Applied directly from undergrad with limited research/field experience.

This refers to the MRES/PHD in Economics and Management. I just wanted to post this for future applicants in the next cycle to have a clear picture of the time frame of the decisions on this new program. I put it as my first choice (not regular Econ, and they liked it). I was invited to an interview on the 28th of Jan, which occurred on the 7th of Feb. I was initially told they were going to make their decisions very shortly but then I got an email saying even though I was a strong candidate they received a new batch of applications that they were reviewing (people rejected in Econ). Finally, on the 12th of March, I was rejected. I got a great waitlist at a top 10 school recently so I am happy but this was quite painful. Tips for the interview...they will press you on your research proposal and they will also ask if you would be ready to accept the offer quickly. I didn't say yes seeing as the application cycle had just begun but that might have hurt my chances.

Could the admitted candidates let me know whether they will accept or reject their offer at the EUI? I'm trying to get a feel for how likely it is to move up the waitlist.

Rejected off waitlist

I am completely surprised! I was previously rejected by them and today I received an unfunded offer and was waitlisted for funding.

I will be very grateful if you have another offer and decline this one. It is my only chance for a PhD in this cycle.

off waitlist with full funding for 5 yrs!

UK undergrad (first class with honours) and postgrad (distinction), and this is my second Master's

Was informed that I am on a short wait list, so I would be extremely grateful if accepted applicants that plan to go elsewhere could reject their offers in due time.
