They said they want a "very informal meeting" between me and the professors in the Physics and Astronomy. Not sure what they mean. Did anyone else receive that?

Asked the coordinator about the progress of application. He informed me that my application did not make it. I will get the official rejection email by the end of this month. He wrote a very personal nice email. Although feel bad about the rejection but it doesn't hurt because of the manner he wrote.

hep-th: I just now mailed my 1st priority prof at Santa Barbara to ask about my application. He said he is not taking any students, and most likely other hep-th profs are also not taking this year "due to lack of available positions.". It costs 140 USD. 2 other universities could have been applied with that money. They have good hep-th professors but they did the same thing last year or the year before that. :(

hep-th, quantum gravity. Interview request sent on 2/13, with three faculty from QMAP.
