TTPB: Hi, I am the person who expressed interest in gravity. Thanks a lot for your reply. Penn State is probably my first preference now. My greatest interest is gravity theory (could either be classical, semi-classical or full quantum gravity theory) in which I have some research experience. Meanwhile, I am also quite interested in numerical relativity especially anything related to compact objects and gravitational waves (although I have zero experience in numerical relativity lmao). I am particularly eager to work with Prof. Ashtekar or Bojowald. I don’t know how many acceptances in gravity theory PSU has sent out, I hope I can get response from PSU about my application status in the following days.

Email/website notification. Saw it on website first. Generic Arts & Sciences message, "Lots of applicants," "limited number of spots," "lots of difficult decisions to make," etc.

To the poster below. Yes, Penn already had their Open House. I'm probably going to decline their offer Monday after carefully comparing my options over the weekend one more time. Best of luck to those who have it as a dream school.
