I've been emailing POIs for programs that I'm applying to this year, and the professor from my 1st choice school replied that she wasn't accepting students this year. However, she will be part of the interviewing committee, and will help the admissions committee make their selections for the incoming class. Based on the Insider's guide, I understand that it isn't be advisable to email 2 POIs in one department because they might both be offended if they found out, but since professor A already informed me that she wouldn't be taking in students, would it still be not okay to email professor B (who almost has the exact same research interests as professor A)?
On the other hand, professor A has been very supportive in her email, saying that I was a competitive applicant and giving me advice on how to strengthen my application more, and offering to answer any more questions that I might have. I could very well establish a good relationship with her, but then again, she's not taking in students. hm?
Thanks in advance for your help!
