Federal grant freeze?
Does anyone have any thoughts on how the freeze might impact mathematics phd students/applicants this cycle and in the future? Will admissions be more competitive? Will schools have to rescind admissions or funding offers? Or will mathematics remain largely unaffected?
This is a topic I really don't understand very well so some help would be appreciated.

I am wondering and being confused too. NIH (National Institute of Health) is clearly the epicenter, but I am not sure if it will affect math.monoid1066 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 28, 2025 4:03 pmDoes anyone have any thoughts on how the freeze might impact mathematics phd students/applicants this cycle and in the future?

Yeah it isn't the intake seems to be more or less the same.

Pton has just (unofficially) confirmed that graduate support will continue this cycle, also considering endowed funds.
Re: Federal grant freeze?
The freeze is confirmed to be not happening anymore.

Columbia has announced to cut off 2025 PhD recruitment in GSAS by 65%. https://x.com/SW_Columbia/status/1885839110272671980. Does this has any relation with the university funding/federal grant they receive? If Columbia did so, I'm so afraid the same situation occurs for many other universities...
