Graduate School Admission Results

Oh we are on the same rejection boat! It is so weird that I feel happy after seeing the rejection. ***I must inform you that it will not be possible to offer you admission to the Economics program*** . SHAME on the Econ department at UNC. It must be a hell with people daring sending rejection in this way!!!

Hey, no still waiting to hear. I'm a bit hopeless by now though.

Hey, have you heard anything back from the waitlist yet?

TPB : Were you notified the admission via email? I have not yet received any emails from them :(

Rejected for PPD program today. This is odd as I've been accepted and fully funded to some US PhD programs (ranked in 20's) -- I'm pretty convinced that the admission process is super-randomized. With the committees claiming that standards are the same, it wouldn't make sense for me to be rejected in a good number of lower-ranked schools I applied to rather than the ones I got accepted in -- noting that my sample size is reasonably large (I applied to 26 schools). Anyways, this might be my last post here as I'm going to accept one PhD offer and reject the rest today. Good luck to y'all!

Got a mail from PSE informing that I am waitlisted. In case those who are offered a place in Master 1 do not enroll, waitlist members will be emailed. Have no idea how many people are there in the waitlist and what my ranking is. Will be waiting for the e-mail though.

Accepted with funding. Had an interview on 03/04

I was rejected in the first round and will be considered again in the second round. They are going to publish the results of the second round by the end of April. Does anybody have an idea of getting selected in the second round?

Was put on the wait list on February 18th. Was accepted the same day my status changed from being on the wait list to bring under review by the department.

Happy. Happy!

TBP: I see your point, but especially if you are European concluding a 3-year Bachelor, be aware of the enormous difference between 1-year and 2-year Masters: namely, the fact that in 1-year Master you will ask LoRs to proffs. that know since basically 3 months, and cannot evaluate you fully (and then push you accordingly). This does not really apply if you already studied at UCL. In the other case, and especially if you want to apply to a PhD later, be aware of this. Hope this helps. Good luck

Happy about the acceptance, but unsure I will accept. The course becomes very expensive over 2 years, especially when considering living costs. Would have preferred 1 year MSc. I also have offers for UCL MSc and Cambridge MPhil - will likely accept UCL as the department is superior to Cambridge.

TPB: Are you so sure that they can admit students with a 2.46 GPA? Nothing personal.
