E-mail to check portal; had an interview earlier. 1a/4wl/2i/4r/5p

I am writing in regards to your application to the PhD program in the Department of Economics at the University of Illinois. The committee evaluated a large number of applications for an incoming class of approximately 10 students. There were very many strong applications, and so we had to make some tough choices. While the committee was impressed with your credentials, I regret to inform you that we are unable to offer you admission to our program. Thank you for considering the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Please accept my best wishes for success in your future endeavors.

Email saying I did not make it in the first round, but that I made it on their waitlist. They expect to make it through a large portion of their waitlist. They mentioned a class size of around 10.

I got the 26th email but no open house invitation. Just trying to get a sense of patterns — for those who didn’t receive an open house invite, how did things turn out in previous cycles (or this cycle)? Any insight would be appreciated!

Ignore status, has anyone heard from Rotman Econ?

Aura farming for your all to reject your offer and pursue greener pastures outside of academia.

Offered admission without funding. Has anyone received a funded offer?

We are writing to share an important update. Following a recent review of our long-term funding commitments to current doctoral students, the field has decided to pause PhD admissions for this cycle. This decision ensures that all enrolled students continue to receive the level of support and mentorship that is central to our program. We recognize that this change affects your plans, and we want to provide you with options moving forward: Receive a full refund of your application fee, or Have your application automatically carried forward for consideration in next year’s admissions cycle. Please complete this brief survey to indicate your preference. If you would like your application to be considered next year, please submit your response by April 15. We understand this may be disappointing news, and we sincerely appreciate your interest in our program. Thank you again for your commitment to graduate study and for considering Cornell.
