Political Science Graduate School Admission Results

Placed on a wait-list, if you know you're not going to accept, please decline!!

Has anyone heard from the University of New Mexico?

email to check website - not surprised given how long I went without hearing from them and not getting an interview (1a/7r/2w/0p)

CP

Email to check website. Will probably decline for Notre Dame. More money, better faculty, more opportunity to grow

Weird application season. 0a/3r/0w/7p

If you don't plan to accept offers, please do not hesitate to reject the offer asap!

To the poster below: you should contact the department to ask, as no one on here who is a student could possibly know. I will say that I was shocked to get an offer of admission this early; I wasn’t expecting anything for another month. If you look at the history of UT PhD offers on here over the last 15 years, they usually come in late Feb or early March. I think this year might be the earliest first round of PhD admissions offers for this department in the history of this website’s records. Whether this means there will be additional rounds or not and/or whether all decisions have been made is unclear. If you’re an applicant to the MA program, it appears those decisions have not gone out yet. If you’re a PhD applicant and you didn’t get an email yet from Ms. Branton, maybe call or email them? No one here can tell you for sure.

"We received more than 314 high-quality applications. This large number of applicants, combined with the small size of our program (we average classes of 12 students), meant that we were able to extend offers to only a very small number of those who wanted to study here. We could easily fill a class size of twelve several times over with excellent students."
