    they post the results online too. we shall all find out today.
  3. don't you think that's too strong of a statement? of course, luck is a big component of the admissions, but I think it's fair to say that the "quality" also plays some role.
  4. 60% of my very small cohort at a very selective program is gay. no, i don't think it's a problem at all.

    I don't know the answer to you question. I would imagine that is not going to make a difference in their decision, but you can always call them up and ask in person. Here's to mid-April!
  7. Your advice is sound for people who "just want to pursue graduate studies." For those who are interested in getting a job in academia and pursuing sociology professionally after graduation, please think twice about terminal degrees and non-ranked schools.
  8. I got an invite two years ago. They invited about 15 - 20 of us and aimed for a cohort for about five or smaller. I am guessing they made about ten offers. I got one myself but really wasnt interested in living in Atlanta and said no. It's a very nice department though and I had a great time visiting. Have fun!
  9. Not true. Most people have a master's or at least a little bit of professional experience. Admission committees tend to be vary of people straight from undergrad. The average age of an entering student is late twenties.
  10. yep.also for the international fellowship.
  11. yep. chances not looking so awesome.. but, would feel silly not to try.
  12. Hey- Anyone applying this year?
