Received general acceptance via email & later received funding info from program director stating I'd been accepted with a GA fellowship (full tuition remission + living stipend for the duration of program)!!

TTPB: Come on, buddy! Did anyone inquire about the length of the waitlist? It seems to me that there are A LOT OF applicants are on the waitlist this year.

Same situation here - rejected by every program I applied to except for UIUC. Sadly, I don't think I can get off the waitlist - I just cannot picture the scene that I will have any chance to continue doctoral studies. Wish everyone have bright future, and I may have to say goodbye to academic life.

Rejected by contacting POI, GPA is grad

Email with funding details and prompt to check portal! Did not have any interview.

Please Please if you have any other competing offers and decided to accept others, could you please let Illinois know your status? Please save me from this brutal cycle....

Rejected by every other program... But I guess miracles do happen.

It is RIDICULOUS to let us wait for so looooong. Fxxk!

Losing ALL hopes. Begin seeking non-academic jobs. Begin learning to lose.

Applied 1/26/21.

Please share your news to the forum if you heard anything from USC :(

Political theory subfield. Thought interviews had gone well and that I was a strong fit.

Email to check portal. At least they "deeply appreciated" my interest /s

Email to check portal. Expected this. 2a/3r/0w/5p

I haven't gotten a rejection yet (yes I checked the promotion/social/spam folders on gmail). Does this mean I'm waitlisted? Haven't gotten any emails from Cornell.
