Physics Graduate School Admission Results

Nucl-th, generic rejection through email

Generic Rejection

Ignore Waitlist-Did anyone hear back from Penn State hep-th program? I mailed them and recieved an auto mail saying in a couple of weeks, they will announce the results. However, this was a month ago. Also waiting for Rice hep-th program.

Did anyone get an interview call for the third round?

Please decline your offer if you do not want to attend. I am waitlisted. CMT

UMD College Park. Ignore Waitist. Any updates from UMD? They told 2 weeks, but 2 weeks have already passed. Any info when they gonna release resuts? I am too anxious.

Canadian student. Have an MSc in math (4.0 GPA). Accepted to quantum technology coursework option with tuition waiver and housing + stipend.

no interview, no rejection. 1 MNRAS paper( first author ) 1 MNRAS paper(second author)... I just hope to give me a notice, offer, or rejection all will be OK

Subfield Nucl-th. If anyone with interest in the same subfield admitted to Yale/Columbia has better offers, please decline Yale/Columbia ASAP. Many many many thanks if you could make you decision promptly!

Ignore Waitlist. Has anyone heard from Cornell?

Rejection after contacting Ms Betty Byers. QIS Theory. I'm still waiting for results from one more school, my only hope to start a PhD this year.

Contact the graduate coordinator to confirm that I'm waitlisted. Probably will decline even if accepted.

Met with one of the potential PIs I was interested today in person. Notified me that they were sending me a formal email to request an interview with me sometime next week.

Another rejection. I have no offer. Two waitlists from JHU and Umich. Please decline if you are not going. They are my last two hopes.

Ignore waitlist. I just want to know what is going on actually. I have no clue. How universities are accepting students in hep and astrophysics? A person who has five published papers on JHEP got rejected from all universities he applied. Another one is working with a noble laureate and getting rejection after rejection. So, why this is happening? I am not insulting other people but I am seeing that some people with low GPAs and limited (actually in most cases no) research are getting accepted by several universities, especially in CMP or soft matter. So, why the University is depriving some extremely well profiles? I don't think most of the students have a clear idea about their subfield. But are they getting accepted only for the choice? A lot of people don't have PGRE scores but get accepted on a high-rank university on CMP but in the same university, 960 pgre score holders get the rejection letters only because they applied to astrophysics. I am not getting this clearly. I have researched at least the past three years' profiles and haven't found anything like this. At least, most of the students deserve to be on the interview part. HEP-th is not a joke and people are not wasting their time on anything. I am extremely disturbed about the admission process. If people who applied to HEP share their insight I would be grateful.

not surprised but feels bad man

PhD Track, interviewed last month. The results should come out next week.

All rejects. 5 publications in JHEP. hep-th, no email, decision letter on portal. FML.
