Honestly shocked I got in since they are notoriously competitive for theory. I am definitely going to accept!

I'm so excited! Comparative subfield. Full funding for 5 years!

People who were waitlisted, or were accepted, would you mind telling when did you apply? Has anyone else also been notified of decisions?

Email from DGS. Funding info was attached.

Okay this was very unexpected, since I do not think the fit was totally there to be honest. But I am thrilled nonetheless!

Top choice! PE/CP 0a/1w/0r/6p

TTPB: Well, it was the admin who wrote to me. That is why I asked you how they sent the notification to you, and who sent it? DGS? Faculty member? In your email, did they directly tell you that you were accepted? Sorry for all the questions, I just need some clarity.

Really nice email from the Chair of Political Science Graduate Admission. Guys, this school is at the top of my list(and I have been rejected from everywhere else), I'm begging you: If you were accepted or waitlisted, and UMass is not your first choice, or if you have a better option, please decline the offer. PLEASE. PLEASE. PLEASE. Congrats, and good luck to everyone, btw.

It was a very nice email from the Chair of the department. I hope the list moves quickly!

Political Theory subfield! Absolutely thrilled and in shock!

PE/Methods

NYU admits below: did you guys receive a personalized email from POI or official one from DGS?

Congrats on Princeton admits! Are any of you guys in IR?

I'm all shaken and extremely happy. God. PE/CP, my top choice :')

TTPB: You should write to DGS as well as the admin person to find out about acceptance in that case!

IR subfield - nice email from the DGS, unlikely to hear anything further until very close to the April 15 deadline. Congrats to all that have been accepted!

Reading the email again and again and still cannot believe it! No interview

subfield: CP. so happy!
