Ignore Waitlisted. Had a good interview early February. The interviewer told me he doesn't make the decisions. Waited till now and no news. I emailed him once early March and he said it's still under review... And I received no email to tell me to check the portal. No news on portal either. Feels like a rejection

Email to check portal, found nothing there but I think I can safely assume a rejection cuz I never take an interview.

GPA 3.43

3.43 GPA, ~1.5 years research, no pubs. This was the last astro school I was waiting on, so looks like unless one of the physics schools accepts me I'll be trying again next year. I'll be back, GradCafe! :]

I'm the one got rejected in 8 March. I knew this POI before so he told me he couldn't hire any PhDs this year. Perhaps the recommendation from POI is crucial in RICE.
