Graduate School Admission Results

Email from department chair

For the person accepted to the MPH program today, do you mind sharing whether it was the -45 or -65 and what field of study you picked? Congrats!

Received email to check portal

[No interview] - Congrats to the admits! Would you be willing to claim your acceptance in the political science forum and share whether or not the official email has come yet? https://forum.thegradcafe.com/topic/126462-2020-2021-application-thread/page/146/#comments

International student (British). Received a rejection via applicant portal, No interview. Undergrad (Queen Mary) and Masters (UCL) GPA equivalent : 4.0, 2.5 years of research experience, 3 strong LOR's, No publications. Sub field: Hep-th (quantum gravity) It must've been a bad year for international applicants to apply. I'm curious to know whether any international applicants were accepted for hep-th. Rejected from 4/5 now :( Waiting for admission results from Stanford.

Any news on PEG PhD ?

AMO/CM

(not interview) I'm fairly certain these are real. Posts from both Social Policy + Government and Social Policy + Sociology. Yeah -- we don't want to give up hope when we shouldn't. But it seems silly/more emotionally painful to hold out hope despite the clear evidence that decisions have been made.

To admitted students: when does visit day take place? They didn't tell us on the waitlist

To the people who applied for the second round, did you take a gap year? If so what did you do?

The website says that we wouldn't know until the first week of March I believe. Also, how many people do they actually accept into the program? I'm sure very few people get accepted, but it seems like there would be at least one or two other people claiming acceptance into this program? I don't want to call the poster bellow a troll, especially if their acceptance is real and they're genuinely excited about it. But I also don't see any rejections posted and it seems weird that no one has been rejected either?

is real

(Ignore interview) Can someone confirm the Harvard acceptance in the 2021 cycle forum with more details please? Decisions aren't supposed to be out until next week earliest so I'm having difficulty believing that the result is real. It was also posted concurrently with the GSP program result. Don't troll us on here, we don't need it.
