HOW DARE YOU REJECT ME! I WILL BE A GREATER PHILOSOPHER THAN ALL OF YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!

Was not invited to in-person interviews back in early Feb

0a/0w/6r/4p but the 4 pending already sent out acceptances from the looks of it (4 pending are NYU, McGill, Georgetown, and Rice)

0a/0w/8r/2p

0a/1w/10r/5p

4a/3w/7r/1p. For perspective: I have perfect grades, a master's degree from a relatively prestigious department, and several publications in well-respected journals. So, if you're facing lots of rejections, don't be discouraged! Even excellent philosophers face lots of rejections.

It’s the PhD and the university I dreamed of and worked so hard for my entire life... The university just notified me that they rejected me after a long process. All the effort, dreams, and merits have just gone to waste. I knew opening this email would hurt, but I didn’t expect it to hurt this much. I see my life up until now passing before my eyes, and I feel like none of what I did made any sense. I am devastated. What a heartbreaking experience T.T. How painful it is to think that they could have considered merit and dreams. My congratulations to those who were accepted.

After careful review, I regret to inform you that the Harvard Kenneth C. Griffin Graduate School of Arts and Sciences is unable to take favorable action on your application to the Program in Systems, Synthetic, and Quantitative Biology. The number of promising applicants well exceeded the number of offers of admission we can make for the 2025-2026 academic year. I know that this decision comes as a disappointment. Unfortunately, enrollment of new students is limited to a small fraction of those who are qualified for admission. I want to assure you that your application received full consideration by faculty members in the program to which you applied. We appreciate your interest in the Graduate School and wish you success in your future studies.

I'd be lying if I said I weren't a little bummed. Still got 8 pending, let's go! 0a/2w/5r/8p
