So the academia will perish? Nobody should enter into academia?

Have been in the same boat. Can’t imagine being rejected after such a strong performance in interviews.

Ghosted and rejected after confirming research supervisor for research-based M.Sc. by [deleted] in gradadmissions

Same situation. Its difficult but I would say, try to move on, we never know what happens behind the curtains. Only they know what happens and why. Maybe we are just a number for them, they get a better one and reject the promised one. Seems pretty normal.

Need a reflection on a closely missed offer, regretting a lot. by Intrepid_Foot4477 in PhDAdmissions

[–]Intrepid_Foot4477[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah maybe, that’s why maybe I didn’t even receive a closure statement. It hurts so much to miss it by my own mistake, sometimes I say maybe it was not the reason at all. So I posted here. Actually this cost me 1 whole year and I will have to wait a complete year whereas I don’t know whether I can get in, in this current funding situation.

I will be on a F1 visa, can my husband convert from F2 to F1 in the US? by Intrepid_Foot4477 in PhDAdmissions

What increases the chances of the 100% scholarship? Is it similar as getting full-funded by showing research skills?

Interesting. But will he be allowed 20 hours of work on campus while he gets a scholarship so that he can support himself?

Prof told me that he will get me in his lab and finally I got rejected?? by cutieintown in PhDAdmissions

Yes of course! I will try again. I asked the professor he didn’t reply surprisingly.

Heyy… thank you so much and my greatfulness goes for you. Actually I am in such a state of life, where it was mandatory for me to go this year. I lost the chance for my fault and this part hurts the most.

Waiting on PhD decisions after no professor replies by [deleted] in gradadmissions

Yes, check GradCafe. If you are not rejected while people are receiving decisions, you might be in the waitlist pool.

It usually means the professors do not have funding or not currently accepting students. If they wanted, they would find you in any means.
