Fully funded

I just experienced an interview from another university in the morning, feeling that I have destroyed everything. So happy to get this acceptance from UT-Austin in the afternoon, this makes me feel a kind of consolation~

This letter is in regard to your application to the Ph.D. in Sociology program at Washington University in St. Louis for Fall 2022.

GPA is my Master's GPA. This is the first acceptance I'm so excited!!!

Stipend for 2022-2023 $20,615 (for 9 months).

Email from DGS with visit dates!

Oof. Thought we are a great fit.

Absolutely thrilled! Unofficial acceptance and an invitation to the recruiting visit. Official letter with funding details is yet to come.

Mail from GDS saying I'm currently placed in the "hold" pool (students who the committee was excited about and see as strong candidates, who might be invited for an interview/admission in the future). I regard this as a waitlist.

(GPA is overall, GPA for major was 3.8) Email from admissions chair with invitation to virtual Prospective Student Visit Day in mid-Feb. Email stated 19 potential students were invited.
