w/ funding

I emailed the program and they emailed me back with the decision. Official acceptance to follow through the mail!

No word from the acceptees yet. If you know you aren't going, please let them know!

second rejection in a row. haven't heard from the other two schools I applied to. I guess I'm not going to grad school this year...

Here is my stats: GPA: 4.0, GRE gen 790-310-3, GRE sub N/A, iBT: 83, pubs: 2. Not high at all...

E-mail admissions adviser and was told that the letter was mailed at the end of Dec. but I never received it. I am glad I e-mailed to get my rejection. Now that I have heard back from all schools, I can make a decision!

To the poster below, I got an offer from Vanderbilt several days ago. May not go there.

This communication is in response to your application for admission to graduate study in the Economics program at Vanderbilt University. Based on the recommendation of its faculty, we regret to inform you that Vanderbilt is unable to offer you admission to this program. If you have applied to more than one Vanderbilt program, you will receive a separate communication regarding your application to each program. We received a significant number of graduate applications this year; thus, we are faced with the unpleasant task of turning down a number of well-qualified applicants. We wish you well in your endeavors. Again, thank you for your interest in Vanderbilt University.

Response to email query

To the poster below, I was interviewed in Feb and soon withdrew my application.

i am the guy who posted earlier about the process being brutal and having only one acceptance. sorry guys, i accidentally selected "accepted" instead of the correct designation, which is "rejected." boy, did my comments seem smug if i actually got accepted into vandy.
