TTPB: I’m actually asking something like have Cornell, Penn State and UMD already done sending offers in the field of gravity theory and numerical relativity and if not, about when offers are going to be sent out.

I asked the department and got this diplomatic answer 😔 “The Graduate Admissions Committee began reviewing applications in mid-January. Preliminary offers will be made in mid to late February. Successful applicants will be notified by e-mail with a formal offer letter to follow by regular mail. Unsuccessful applicants will be notified by e-mail.”

I was waitlisted at JHU yesterday. Although I would've loved to get accepted outright, I still feel honored to be recognized by such a university.

I have no idea about how "good" or "bad" the Stony Brook master program is, but it seems that at lease a large number of their master students got to stay there as PhDs: http://graduate.physics.sunysb.edu/ma-program/alumni/alumni.shtml. Also, their courses could be of higher quality, especially for hep-th.

To the post below: (the 3 major guy) congratulations for the acceptance! Still no news from umass for me, was it the department or the admissions office that you mailed to get information about your waitlist status previously?
