hep-th. Two very strong LORs. One "first author" preprint on arXiv submitted to JHEP and one in preparation. Didn't contact any faculty before, but I guess one professor may be interested in my materials since his research is relevant to mine.

It seems a lot of us still have to hear back from PSU. Do not count your admissions until they come, just be patient. Good luck to all!

Were the rejections en-masse? I still haven't received any news (good or bad) from Cornell other than the email a week ago.

To the posters below, Columbia admits people in waves and by area. So it might also be that decisions for your area have not been made yet.

Through checking the website, I have found an official decision letter about my application status saying that the Minnesota Physics faculty have placed me on the alternate list for admission. They said that if any of applicants admitted do not accept the offer, I will be admitted to fill the openings. Please decline ASAP if you are not planning to attend Minnesota and have better offers from other schools.
