Just applied for Applied Math PhDs as an undergraduate engineer.
>Applied to only three universities because proximity and a few others were nearby but had nothing of interest
>One application was a day late
>One application was for a Über-prestigious uni where I should have applied to another department but instead applied for basically pure math and in my SoP I hinted for them to push me over the other department plz because app. for that department had already closed
>Last app was on time, the uni is not too prestigious (relatively speaking), has my intended subfield well-represented, and a potential advisor I contacted encouraged me to apply
Am-am I gonna make it bros? I'm scared.
tldr: Don't apply at the last minute. Also PhD apps. thread.
