Graduate School Admission Results

Drexel strung me along for MONTHS, initially telling me I'd hear back late January, then late February, then March 15th, then the week after, etc. I had to ask for an extension from a competing school, so I was a bit flummoxed to open the portal to a rejection today. I met with multiple faculty members interested in working with me, have a long CV with over 30 papers in press, and am mid-career working in mental health. I had a 4.0 in my Master's program with a Dean's award. I suppose I can see it as a silver lining to have dodged a bullet in working with a program lacking professionalism. However, I'm still disappointed as Drexel gave me the impression that they may have a more social justice-informed approach than other schools I had been considering, with an emphasis on interrogating systems.

Ignore status!!! Does anyone know if formal acceptance or rejection letters have been sent? I haven't received anything yet

Has anyone heard back for the EECS program??

To all the applicants, if you are holding dominant offer, please make a decision and reject the other offers. The time has arrived

Had an interview in February, did not like the content of the professor's research so politely declined. Had another one in March, but again it was in an adjacent field, so did not do well in the interview and had to express the same. Had a final one on the 8th of April where both field and specific research area met my interests, and am now waiting to hear back.

Did not submit GRE. Got rejected from PhD but was offered admission to MS program.

I haven't been rejected from the program yet, but my application status still says 'Under review' on the portal. I've tried emailing them, but haven't gotten a response. I'm not sure what's happening, so I'm reaching out here to see if any other applicants have any helpful info. Please comment if you know anything!

Off the wait list!! Extremely excited

Off waitlist, IR subfield.

I was on a wait list for the program but got an email this morning that I got in!

Got off the wait-list and received the acceptance offer.

Unofficial offer over email, with full funding. Declined immediately.

waitlist via e-mail. Please decline if don't need.Really really appreciated. 21 offers sent during the first round.

Still waiting to get off the waitlist. Please, if you are considering rejecting, can you do so soon? It is already April 11. I would rather know sooner rather than later (April 15), especially since I need to know these results to figure out my own plans.

Kindly ask admits let the department know your decision (be it accept or decline) ASAP. Kudos to those who respond before April 15!
