Graduate School Admission Results

I only really knew about this when I checked Gradcafe to see others were also getting rejects. Also probably the only school that doesn't send an email to inform that a decision was made. Dodged a bullet with this one if that's how they handle stuff..

Not too surprising, but still a bit disappointed because I thought I was a strong candidate and that it was a good fit. 1A/3R/0W/0P.

After 2 months :((

I recognize that Tennessee is not a top 50 program, but my area of study fits very well with the faculty, and it is a school I’ve always dreamed of attending. It would also give me the opportunity to be close to my spouse again. All you geniuses who got accepted or will be accepted to better schools or who are not highly considering Tennessee, let this be your sign to remove yourself from the waitlist or acceptance list! It would be instrumental in my life. I do wish everyone the best of luck and that they would find good fits and further philosophical inquiry for the next generation!

The letter was actually very thoughtful. I'm devastated, though.
