Graduate School Admission Results

Called by PI and told I was 1st alternate and that when someone gave up an offer I would be admitted. This is my top choice. If you don't want to go, please release your offer. That way I can release the other offer I'm holding. Good karma for everyone.

No interview. No waitlist. No rejection.

Notified by phone at the end of March. Accepted the offer.

Anything now someone???

"We have finished offering interviews. Most of the applications were really great. I am sure that you all could do the work. In the end, it all came down to matching faculty research and program fit. You will be receiving an official letter from Graduate Admissions but I wanted to let you know about the interviews as soon as possible. Thank you for your interest in the University of Massachusetts Boston Clinical Psychology Ph.D. Program and I wish you the best of luck in your future careers."

On April 9th I received a letter saying I'm waitlisted. On April 11th, I sent my first email to a Professor (I had no prior communication with any professor at BU). The next day, I received an admission letter offering 5 years of support and distinguished mechanical engineering fellowship for the 1st year. BU is where I wanted to be.

Admission with 31k fellowship. From SUT

Very kind encouraging email from my POI. Probably only admitting three students, but encouraged me to keep on the wait list because there is a good chance for me to get taken off the wait list. I am not sure if this means I am high on the wait list or if the wait list is simply very small.
