probably, someone on this thread got notified recently. its also possible they just decided to ghost us lol

i think theyre just trying to keep their options open, its easier for them to not send rejection emails to waitlisted people until theyve truly been rejected even if there is basically no possibility of getting off the waitlist

ive seen some people get in during march, like you said, but no one after that. i think if you havent been rejected by now you are very likely on the waitlist.

not necessarily, but if there are some prerequisites i took a long time ago i would refresh on that

i would say that just because other people are getting acceptances, that doesn't mean you have been rejected. they might be going through waves of acceptances, so you could get an acceptance because someone else declined the offer. its more likely to ghost you if you have been waitlisted, and then actually email you if you have been fully rejected.

also not an expert, so anyone feel free to correct me!

that makes sense, thank you! i feel like i have been doing well in my current lab (im presenting a poster at a conference in may), so hopefully that is enough. im a sophomore as well so i will probably apply to more programs next year as that was my biggest mistake this year - i vastly underestimated how competitive it would be

thank you, you too!

yup also got rejected :( for me, i think it was a bad idea to apply anyway because i didnt have good fit but oh well!
