2 people waitlisted from MIT on Gradcafe. Guess I'll wait for my rejection this Valentine's then
You never know!! It still isn't over, don't give up :D

When I got in last year, I was emailed directly by the graduate chair. It took like a month for my portal to update to admitted status.

Thanks for letting us know!

(and no, I didn't stay up all night hitting F5)
Check your email and spam, portal didn't change at all

Mine is showing numbers too now. I wonder if this is an indication our application decisions are being entered/processed.
what numbers? mine still says submitted aka pending

Come on do you honestly expect to get in to UCLA with your stats? I know that "[being] female (under-represented minority) definitely helps [your] application" but this is very above your pay grade don't you think?

Even if you do get in do you honestly think you can survive? The profile of people that have gotten in is like a tier above yours. Be realistic dude

Look, take it anyway you want but the undeniable truth is that your kind have a way easier time with graduate admissions or even future academic employment opportunities. But at the end of the day, you still need to know the material and able to produce research results, and based on your profile, you are nowhere close to being sufficiently prepared for any tier 1 (or even arguable tier 2) programs. Having merely 2 semesters of algebra and analysis in simply insufficient or modest at best.

@confused.graduate You have every right to apply to UCLA and "stats" aren't necessarily indicative of your actual mathematical ability. General GRE is obviously irrelevant and there are many factors that can influence your GPA. Assholes like applepi are part of the reason so many women drop out of math PhDs. I wish you the best and I hope you get in somewhere good. Try to prove them wrong.

Oh yeah? I won't apologize for speaking the obvious truth or failing to sugarcoat things for you.

Look at the UCLA basic examination syllabus, I doubt confused.graduate can even answer a single question right, or can even recognize any of the concepts. But I am more than willing to bet that most people that got admitted to UCLA can pass the basic exam if not the qualifying exam with ease. Hell, even someone like me from a lesser institution (compared to Ivies) in Canada can answer most questions if not pass the basic exam without much difficulty.

No one is expected to be able to pass their quals before they start grad school, thats part of why you take classes.

Does being a rude to women online make you feel good? I don't understand what you gain by discouraging people from applying to places and adding to people's impostor syndrome. You don't know her story, you don't know what opportunities she did or didn't have. Not everyone starts from the same place and you can't judge someone's mathematical ability based on an online post.

I understand you're probably bitter thinking that your spot at schools might be taken by a woman when you're equally qualified, but would you really rather be in grad school with only men? Do you think that would be a good environment? If they didn't accept extra women, it would create an environment so unwelcoming to women that practically NO woman no matter how qualified would want to go to graduate school for math. This would waste nearly half the mathematical potential out there. You have to understand that accepting women who appear to have "worse stats" is the only way to make an environment where qualified women could go to graduate school in a reasonable environment.

I am not being rude I am simply being blunt and truthful.

I know a good environment is where everyone got where they deserve based on their merits not looks/race/gender/other factors. If the admission standard is different for different groups of people it creates bitterness and stereotyping. Have you ever questioned why guys thinks that women are just not as good scientists/mathematicians as men? Why do people automatically assume that international graduate students are smarter? It's because of the double standard, if everyone is treated equally without consideration of other factors this would never have occured.

And on the "other half of the mathematical potential out there." Okay I acknowledge the fact that the world is composed of roughly 50-50 men and women. But please don't lie right to my face say that out of the entire 100% of population who is interested to become mathematicians or scientists, 50% are women. That's just preposterous. Based on the same logic doesn't that means 50% of nursing students should be male?

I said "mathematical potential" which refers to people who under the right circumstances could become productive mathematicians. Yes, I believe that if all environmental factors were equal (including subliminal messaging, bias in early schooling) then there would be as many good female mathematicians as male.

Please stop arguing - this controversy has been extensively debated among academics, that's why some departments discriminate against non-URM and some don't. You guys are welcome to hold your own opinions but this isn't street fighters forum edition, please just stop and keep the forum clean.

If applepi holds such regressive opinions regarding women and their mathematical skills, it is really unfair to label it just as another "argument". A lot of us plan to join academia, and it is scary that people like him could end up as faculty in a decision-making position. He has made multiple incendiary comments about the same subject so the only person who needs to stop is him.

I had a missed transcript in my Rutgers application, and was only informed of this on Jan 20th, so I assume they haven't looked through everything.

Almost certainly. My (more qualified) peers haven't heard back from them yet either, so I'm assuming they're just starting to look through.

My guess from past cycles is that the offers are made in a staggered fashion so hard to say. There's also the possibility of a second round.

It's weird that everyone posting on gradcafe for Penn is American. Does that mean they are evaluating Internationals separately? I am not aware of schools adopting such practices

Well, MIT, UCLA, and a couple of universities who have made offers so far have done it to only domestic applicants. So, yes, there's a good chance they will do Internationals later.

It's weird that everyone posting on gradcafe for Penn is American. Does that they doing Internationals separately? I am not aware of schools adopting such practices
Well, MIT, UCLA, and a couple of universities who have made offers so far have done it to only domestic applicants. So, yes, there's a good chance they will do Internationals later.
there are a couple ucla and mit acceptances from international students at gradcafe and this forum

Well in all fairness those people are infact Internationals, but they did their undergrad in the US. I'd be surprised if all of these schools didn't accept a single student outside of the US. Maybe I'm just giving myself some hope this way. Let's see

Did anyone get in UIUC from here? There's just one post on Gradcafe
I'm a PhD student at UIUC and my advisor is still reviewing application profiles. It's possible (though not likely) that some offers have been sent out but I don't think that's considered the first round of offers. No need to worry for now!

That's such a relief. Thank you. :)

Someone posted on GradCafe about an unofficial Northwestern rejection -- anyone else know anything about that?

Did anyone apply to the Paris Graduate School of Mathematical Sciences Master's Fellowship (commonly known as PGSM Master's Fellowship, offered by Fondation Sciences Mathématiques de Paris) recently? If there is anyone who has applied please let me know.

I am new to this forum, and I tried to send you a private message. But I am not sure if you have received it. Do you know, if the chosen master program's selection committee has anything to do with selecting the laureates of the Fellowship?

My application status for Bonn's master's in mathematics program says that decision made. What does this mean? Am I admitted or rejected?

Have anyone or (someone you know) gotten waitlisted by UChicago and accepted later? Their tone sounded like "there's hope for you yet, but just a little and don't count on it"

Nothing here. I'd be hesitant to trust it or consider it as part of a first wave of offers, though. It's been a topic of discussion on that board for a couple days so there's a chance it's just someone posting to be a jerk.

I know two people got in since last friday, and I'm almost certain they are both domestic.

No, but I feel like maybe it's too early? Seems like it was unofficial :)

Might not be actually. Last year all the offers went through by the end of January ( according to gradcafe) hence the cold sweat.

One more person has posted and I am also panicking here a little bit. If there are no further rounds of offers, then this might be the end of the lane with this university.
