Graduate School Admission Results

To the original \"fake\" poster: I got that message on the website too and yes it means that you have been admitted. To the poster below who doubted the \"fake\" poster: Don\'t\' you know that you can be a professor as well as a dean or associate dean? In fact, many deans are also professors, including Dr. Rosen. If you wanted to confirm whether he is actually the associate dean of graduate studies or not, maybe you should have looked a little harder.

Previously accepted, funding uncertain for out-of-state students. People working to find support for new PhDs.

Note that Ralph M. Rosen is also associate dean of graduate studies. The quoted text is taken from the ApplyYourself decision link. To those concerned - pretty certain it's real. You can call the department yourself to confirm if you haven't heard from Kelly yet.

surprising.. anyways i was goin to decline it even if i had been admitted.

To the fake results poster below: By the simple reason that Ralph M. Rosen is form the Department of Classic studies and the notifications of the Economics Department are being done by Patricia Rea...

has anyone still not heard from UPenn? i haven't heard anything yet and there's no decision on the website!

I'm very sad. 10th rejection with no admission..

To the poster below: I received the phone call from a professor yesterday and the email of admission($$) today.

expected...but extremely disappointed. Anyway, I'm going to SSSSStanford!

Has anyone heard from Indiana yet? Have not seen anyone post but I just started looking at this sight. Also, anyone accepted the Michigan State U with funding, only saw wiatlisted individuals.

I also have offers from UCLA, Harvard & MIT; however, Mehmet Okur is playing for Utah Jazz and he's doing well, that's why I'll accept Utah's offer.. Good luck everyone, hope you get acceptance from university where your national sports hero plays in a prof team of the state :)))

Expected... still disappointed.... Anyway i'm going to Princeton

A generic message from Sheila Bonde. A generic reaction from me.Mehh...

VERY HAPPY

Rejected by cornell,duke,minnesota,yale,u penn,michigan,brown in a row- finally accepted by UBC with full funding.I'm just ecstatic!!!! Just waiting for maryland,boston and NYU.Anyways,I shall not go to maryland or boston even if they work out. I'm just too glad and UBC is too good a place given my interests!
