University of Southern California Physics Graduate School Admission Results

Applied to Hep-Th

Had an interview in January and was told the decision should be out in 2 weeks. I'm glad a decision did exist

do they even have 8% admission rate

LMFAO.

“accept less than 8% of the >550 applicants”

Same generic rejection email as last time, less than 8% acceptances, >550 applicants, etc. Second cycle and no offers or waitlists.

Email said

I had an interview in January

I was interviewed by a faculty member on January 24th. He informed me that I might receive notification of the decision within a week or two. However, there has been no notification so far (February 12). If anyone is in a similar situation, please comment here.

I interviewed, and they really liked me, but state funding has run dry due to the LA fires, so they told me they couldn't afford to fund my PhD. I was interested in QIS.

Unofficial acceptance letter sent through email from grad admissions with PI cc'ed.
