Thank you for your application to the PhD in Policy Studies program at Clemson University. The admissions committee did not admit you into the program.
I’m writing to let you know that you have been denied acceptance due to the fact that the three professors you mentioned, Drs. David Barkley, Jim London and Bill Ward, have retired, or are nearing retirement and not taking on advising any additional students. Further, the admissions committee has not been able to identify a suitable replacement to chair your dissertation committee.
Your denial is not a reflection on your credentials or qualifications. We wish you the very best in your future endeavors.
BS这所学校,申请的时候专门研究faculty的CV,写好研究方向,同时我并没有在website发现这三个教授注明要退休,他奶奶的,骗人的学校,浪费我80美元,以后大家陶瓷教授还得看年龄!
文科申请美国真的是艰辛,还是相信Before U achieve, You must believe! 向前看,等offer!
楼上的,申请过程有些事不像你想的那么简单,申请之前联系导师,你又不可能每所学校每个导师发email,况且也不是每个教授都回复你的!老美的人品也是各个学校不一样的,三个教授难道都一次性巧合退休吗? 文科又不像理工科? 幸好Clemson University policy research 排名不好,我也只是顺带申请下,期待其他学校!
感觉申请公共管理或者公共博士PHD一定注重专业排名,不要过分注重综合排名!
向前看,我的2010 Fall
