Sheila makes an important point about funding. I have been
informed by several colleagues that the number of offers their
programs will make this year will be reduced because of lack of
the usual amount of funding.

But even if one has a mentor that is gung ho, there is always the matter
of funding. In my department, I have had students that I have been
enthusiastic about, but the department could not fund them. In my
department, we do not admit students without funding. So great students
may not get offers, because of lack of funds. It varies from year to
year (in my department) whether a specific faculty member is "up" (i.e.,
can fund a student). So, the same student applying in a different year
could land an offer.
