Saw it coming because people were getting accepted/waitlisted one week ago. Apparently they only accepted four students this cycle due to COVID. If you see this and plan to apply next cycle be wary. Not worth the mental headache honestly.

(Not interview) Honestly so frustrating the schools do not explicitly tell about the policies that literally make applying to them almost pointless. I did not know about either the huge cut on Harvard's cohort or the absence of funding in UPenn. How do I know this without having any fellow faculty members there or just randomly getting the info? They could have posted it on the website and in the application form, but that's too much work for them apparently

High GPA, 3 years FT relevant research, 6 pubs in mid-tier journals (1 first-author), great LORs and a solid personal statement. No interview - regretted paying the extremely high application fee immediately after submitting (TTPB: I'm with you on the burritos)

Finally heard back. Was directed to check portal, which contained a generic rejection letter. Accepted to my other top choice school, so this wasn't really quite a shock. Good luck and congrats to those who made it!

(no interview, no response yet) TTPB: that seems to be the case across the board this year, but other programs have admitted around 5 people; only 1 seems wild. fingers crossed to all of us, best of luck fellow bookworms

TTPB: hi, this is anxious poster from below. Harvard did mention on their English admissions page they'll be accepting fewer candidates this year. Still sucks! :(
