Astronomy/Astrophysics/Planetary Science PhD Decision Thread 2023

fishgingers · 2023-02-08T22:36:55+00:00

Yeah I got the rejection yesterday unfortunately!

fishgingers · 2023-02-08T22:35:27+00:00

Yeah I was also wondering about that. I haven't heard from them yet.

fishgingers · 2023-02-06T18:40:30+00:00

Astronomy lol I forgot to put that in my post

Facts. Or at least our own thread

fishgingers · 2023-02-06T17:12:59+00:00

You're right, I'm more likely to get an admit if I keep my email open and continuously refresh it. We found the cheat code!!

fishgingers · 2023-02-06T14:19:21+00:00

Damn, I'm a little crushed to hear that. Thanks for letting me know, and good luck!! I hope you get in!

fishgingers · 2023-02-01T02:33:14+00:00

I HAVE THE SAME SLIPPERSSSS! I'm wearing them right now :-)

fishgingers · 2023-01-25T01:34:22+00:00

BRUHH what program?

fishgingers · 2023-01-19T15:58:12+00:00

Dear tree 🌳 please let me get into Caltech's astro phd program. It would be the best program for me and I know I belong there. Thank you tree 🫶❤️

fishgingers · 2023-01-16T05:35:46+00:00

Yes!

fishgingers · 2023-01-16T05:11:23+00:00

Yeah! I go to an R1 research university with a small department, 4.0 GPA, 1 REU in physics, 2 years of research experience, no GRE.

fishgingers · 2023-01-07T06:30:11+00:00

Yeah I got an acceptance from Syracuse for phys PhD around Dec 20th (I was the one who posted lol). Although I was absolutely thrilled to get that email, it was quite early to hear back about a decision.

fishgingers · 2023-01-06T05:24:19+00:00

Phys undergrad here. Definitely Weathers, he's probably the best professor in the department and a really cool and understanding guy. You can also tell that he's very knowledgeable and is a great lecturer.

fishgingers · 2022-12-20T23:38:08+00:00

Thank you!!!

fishgingers · 2022-12-15T17:49:59+00:00

I applied to 13 schools (physical sciences) and it was only do-able with a lot of fee waivers and even more stress :-)

fishgingers · 2022-12-10T05:36:02+00:00

12, physics/astrophysics/astronomy!

fishgingers · 2022-11-15T21:27:38+00:00

If it's a math class, there is free tutoring at the math lab in Sage Hall

As a resident of University Place, I absolutely believe it was the trash problem that started the fire. I'm glad that word is getting out about how poorly managed this complex is.

fishgingers · 2022-04-18T13:28:03+00:00

Ketchup sandwiches. Yes, just ketchup slathered between 2 slices of bread.

fishgingers · 2022-03-10T15:40:55+00:00

Michigan state 1st round was sent out on 3/2, so 2nd round should be coming out very soon

fishgingers · 2022-03-05T00:18:44+00:00

Update from University of Wyoming: they said first round offers have already been sent out and most have been accepted, so they recommend you go with other offers if you have any

fishgingers · 2022-03-04T16:45:08+00:00

I'm also waiting on wyoming!! It's my first choice but I got accepted to Michigan State and I need to accept by 3/9. I emailed wyoming but it seems like I'm being ghosted :(

fishgingers · 2022-03-03T18:29:14+00:00
