I got the email a few weeks ago saying they were going to send out emails soon, and I've seen on the results page that some people have heard back from them. Should I email them and ask about the status of my application or will that just be annoying??? Why haven't I heard anything?!
I have so many feelings about schools not sending out rejection emails. Mainly because as long as I don't get a rejection, I can live in ignorance that I was not, in fact, rejected.
You know what sucks? When your roommate has been accepted to three law schools already and you've only heard from 2 of the 14 programs you've applied to. This is such an unfair process.
I've read things that say MAs are turn offs for certain programs (at least in clinical) because some programs like to train people all the way through. It sucks, I'm sure.
Did you hear from USF and Drexel directly? I applied to both of those, but I haven't heard anything from either program, which kind of freaks me out (but also not knowing means I can continue to live in ignorance of what is probably impending rejection...)
Thanks! Yes -- this is my first time applying to grad programs. I've only done PhD programs so far since most of my masters applications haven't been due yet.
