Ignore waitlist...Just declined my offer. Hopefully, it helps someone.

Rejected from waitlist

Just turned down my offer, good luck to everyone still waiting

(ignore WL) To the person accepted to the Medical Physics program. Were you on the waitlist or did you directly receive an acceptance e-mail? Since it's almost April I kinda assumed that there's no chance of getting accepted at this point.

TTPB: As someone who did not receive any news from the UMD, I am wondering the same thing. You at least have a (slim) chance and was informed of that. I don't understand why they couldn't reject me and others like me until now.

What is going on at UMD? I received a likely letter long ago, and now I'm not so sure that it was a "likely" letter in the first place. I am utterly puzzled.

Ignore waitlist. I have asked for an update of my application, and their answer was that they are still reviewing applications. So we need to wait a little bit more.

"While your application was impressive, we regret to inform you that at this time, you have not been recommended for admission for our Fall 2021 graduate program. We encourage you to reapply for Fall 2022 starting in October 2021." Wow, rejected me and want me to pay for the application fee next year. Nice Utah.

TTBP: I also applied for hep-th and never heard anything, and nothing has shown up on ApplyWeb. I emailed them about a week ago asking for an update so I can respond to other offers, and they never responded :/

Waitlisted. I was really wanting to be a part of the physics education research there...it was literally a dream. I'm trying to keep the faith for acceptance off the waitlist.

Please decline the offer if you don't intend to go there. This is my last hope. I have been rejected from other universities I have applied to.

Didn't expect

Ignore Waitlist. I am hep-th and I also haven't heard back from Penn. I spoke to a current grad student at my undergraduate institution who said Penn never sent him a decision (it would be 3 years late at this point). I think we are just lost in the system :(

TTPB: Nope, I applied for CM/Soft matter theory with interest in biophysics.

Ignore Waitlist: TTPB: same, I haven't received anything yet on web apply. did you also apply for HEP-TH?

feels a bit like all the hard work during my undergrad was for nothing. But I know that's not true etc blabla. Still extremely disappointed of myself.

QC

TTPB: What's your subfield? :)

Surprised accepted this late - already accepted an offer elsewhere, hopefully it opens a spot for someone else! Good luck to those still waiting! So you know, I got a likely letter a while back. If you received one but still have not heard your results, there may still be hope?
