i doubt because Michel did not list yale in his profile and this person got rejected by yale...

Yale University Physics, PhD Rejected via E-mail on 13 Feb 2009 I 13 Feb 2009 Rejected from Yale (#11 in physics) but accepted to Berkeley (top 3 in physics) ????? HAHA ironic, Berkeley was my top choice and Yale my safety school.

Just got into NYU. Still waiting on responses from some of the tougher schools though...

Got a phone call from a UCSC professor this morning which sounded like I was due for an interview. After calming down, I called him in the afternoon and got what sounded like an effective admission. He said that the admissions committee hadn't met to make its final decisions yet, but that I should "expect a decision soon ". I got an acceptance email from NYU a few hours later, too!

Congrats to everyone else that's heard back so far, and for those of you that haven't, sit tight! It's still really early in the season.

Geez what a day, acceptances from McGill and NYU, too.

Minnesota has started? They're one of my top choices.

Just got an email from the University of Toronto quantum optics group! Yay! My first acceptance, I am officially going to grad school somewhere.

Congrats! Really though? This late? On a Saturday? On Valentine's day?

Its a valentines day card.

Will you be my valentine?

Sincerely,
University of Toronto

Haha ya that is kind of weird. The email came at 11:56pm on valentines day?! Odd, but I don't care, cause I got in!

Another here for UIUC (e-mail last Friday). I don't know if chocolate got the same one, but mine was a very unofficial e-mail. It was from a non-admissions faculty member, to the effect of "You are going to be accepted, and I want to tell you about this fellowship ... " So I doubt we're even in the first wave yet.

Yep, while I'm pleased people are getting in to the places they want. I find having comrades with whom I can commiserate to be personally very useful. In any event well done.

Woohoo!! Congratulations, that's great news!

Finally off the "still waiting" thread, and what a way to do it!

Indeed! It feels great to be removed from my miserable creation, haha

Acceptance from Brown with a fellowship

Acceptance to UC-Irvine. Hells yes!

congratulations! I hope there's still a spot for me , but I wasn't really expecting one anyways. In any event you too are off the "still waiting" thread - at least for the most part .

A nice letter from MIT today with a fellowship!

Congrats to all those of you with admits so far!
