I had 3 interviews with the faculty, all of them went great, now seeing this made me incredibly sad, it is completely unexpected from my side but there is nothing to do.

They seem to only accept direct applications not rotation.

Great interview. Great advisor fit. Multiple pubs & conferences

Well.... I thought we had a great conversation during the interview. Congratulations to the applicants who got in, yay.
