I haven't heard anything from Michigan yet.

Came with 5-year $27,500 fellowship without TA duties (for two of those years).
Notified by phone; official letter to follow within about a week. Invited to open house on March 4th.
Exact same here! So good to be getting acceptances. I also got an acceptance from Illinois Urbana-Champaign, anyone else hear from them?
Congrats to you! Both are very good programs for pure/applied math. Mind posting your profile on the other thread? Would be a good reference.

From my observations, if you see people getting waitlisted and you haven't heard back yet then expect a rejection letter

Looks like you did pretty well this season!

I just got accepted there but missed the phone call. How much is the fellowship?

He said there are various fellowships, so they may not all be the same, or each package may even be a mixture of different fellowships. Mine is for 21K for the academic year, not including summers. I forget how much he said for summers, maybe 3 - 4K? I couldn't tell, but I think they are still adding on and finalizing things in terms of distribution of funds. And he said that they will be meeting through Feb 10th to select/ accept other candidates, and that the official letters won't go out until a few days after that, maybe early the following week. Hope that helps!

Thanks! I'm calling him tomorrow. I'm probably not going to UCSC but it's still cool to see all my options. I saw http://graddiv.ucsc.edu/financial-aid/ and you probably got Eugene Cota Robles fellowship.

Best of luck to you all!
MathCat wrote:I'm a current PhD student and I just talked about job searches with some 5th years in my program over the last week. Food for thought: a fellowship with no TA duties is not necessarily a great thing. It is nice to not *have* to TA every term, but it is good experience - you should ask if it is possible to TA (or even really teach!) if you get such a fellowship. One 5th year student who has several teaching-heavy job offers on the table (which he prefers to research-heavy jobs) noted that the hiring committees seemed impressed by how many different courses he had TA experience for. Also, I expected to hate teaching/TAing, but it is actually quite enjoyable if you have some engaged students, and it helps my productivity to have some structure to my week outside of just classes and studying.

Big congrats guys!! One of the best programs in Applied Math:)
@anwins: Mind sharing your profile for a good reference to future applicants?

I assume your question is directed to me. Otherwise, ignore this answer.
I personally think the choice here all depends on your personal career goal. Do you really want to stick to the academia, or industry? If the former, NYU is an obvious choice (people like Peter Lax, Robert Kohn, Marco Avellaneda are household names....) But the latter, well, having Stanford on your resume guarantees a lucrative, easy path to the world of Tech + VC/PE industry. So I guess you have to ask yourself: do I want to have a chance at being a millionaire, or do I want to see my names printed in all classical textbooks after I die? If I were you, I would have to choose the former, because I'm not good enough to belong to the later case:) Good luck man!

I have yet to receive any correspondence from Cornell. I am hoping that this means I survived through their first round of rejections.
