To the poster below: I was notified by email on Feb.9 with a stipend of $26,000. I cannot decline it, cuz I am on the waiting list of another school. Once receiving a better offer, I will decline the offer ASAP!

Late night email. 4 years of research in HE-ex and CME. Applied AMO. No pubs. LOR from Nobel Laureate and President of the company I work for. Veteran. Two degrees in physics and chemistry. Guess it's a numbers game.

Mailed them asking about my application. Applied to 12 schools, rejected from all. Most probably I will be taking a drop year. I think there were other factors apart from academics playing a role in the selection process, but I guess it would be too soon and juvenile to blame Trump for my graduate school rejections. This is just sad.

To person asking about Dartmouth: I have not heard back yet either, but I did see one acceptance to Dartmouth on February 9th. I applied to do astronomy there, and a friend (a current grad student in the department) said the astronomy people were done with decisions. Not sure if that's the case for the whole department though.
