Pre-Doctoral fellowship. Not surprising but disappointing.

UK student. Unofficial notification from the Faculty, awaiting approval by GAO. Unsurprisingly, no funding. I applied with a First in Philosophy from a good UK institution on the basis of my undergraduate strength in ancient philosophy (read mostly in translation), and geared my research proposal towards ancient philosophy and classical reception.

Out of all of my rejections, this one has left me the most angry. I wasn't under any impressions that I was definitely going to get in, but the way JHU handled applications was ridiculous. They not only didn't have the decency to give me my rejection before April 15th, even when I emailed and asked for an update, explaining the situation, but then they send the rejection via post with no change on the online portal which I've been checking every day. Rejection or no, I'm not a happy applicant. I'm just glad after all this that I didn't spend money applying and was able to get a fee waiver; otherwise, I'd be even more upset.

Emailed to withdraw my application because I hadn't heard anything from them, and have already been accepted into a a couple of better programs in the Ivies. Received an email today saying that they couldn't offer me a spot in the program: it's pretty evident that they hadn't read my email or even known I had withdrawn. Not impressed.

Invitation for Skype interview via email on 03/17. Skype interview on 03/24. The DGS told me that the Classics side could take me, but that there probably would not be room for me on the education side, but on 04/01 the DGS emailed me to tell me that there would be a place for me and that I should expect an admission decision soon. Later that day, I received an email that I was admitted! Best April Fools Day ever!
