I was told by someone with connections to the program that it was due to lack of research experience - if you have publications, post-bac research, and/or 3+ years old research experience, you should be in better shape. |

Though I applied for the PhD program, I received an automated letter of rejection for the MA program (as did many others). Stanford really doesn't seem to have their shit together this year. |

Hey I’m really sorry to have caused anyone to feel upset and to have not been considerate. After a recent death in my family, I’ve been experiencing homelessness as I’ve tried to finish school. I just felt so relieved to be accepted that I got too excited and wasn’t being considerate of others. Thank you for letting me know how my comments impact people. |
