  1. Hey! I haven't heard anything from CSU but someone on the discord said we should hear at the end of next week!
  2. No from Stanford as well! Woot. I'm glad we all can support each other!
  3. Far from the Tree by Andrew Solomon is pretty dense but good and you can pick and choose chapters without losing information (he was also one of the keynote speaker at the NSGC conference in 2014).
  4. Looks like someone heard from Minnesota today! Congrats to you! Now I'm even more obsessively checking my email.
  5. I know this is for a different school but the same thing happened with Stanford. They changed it from 750 words to 2 pages max right before I submitted. When I emailed them they said to submit the 750 word one because they knew changing it so far into the admissions process would cause confusion and understood there would be a lot of people who couldn't go back and rewrite their personal statement. I know this is not the same but it might lessen some stress!
  6. Wisconsin said we won't hear a peep until February. But that is the only indication of date they have given! This is fabulous btw!
  7. That makes a lot of sense! I didn't think about the uncertainty of the match through the institution's eyes. A larger pools gives them a better chance of being matched to an applicant.
  8. This is exactly what I am feeling! Thank you for putting it into words!! We are in this together. Good luck!
  9. I put it on each one unless a school had a specified page limit for the CV and did not require it on there. The couple webinars I listened to said as long as a CV wasn't 6 pages there wasn't a "max" page limit so I included it on those and mine was 3 pages total.
  10. In the application space that allows for any other additional information did anyone include explanations for why grades lowered during certain quarters? Did you explain the extenuating circumstances. I only ask because I did but I wanted to know if that will look bad to an admissions committee.
  11. In Sarah Lawrence's webinar they said it was used so they can see how they compare to the other schools you are applying to like if you are looking at all small schools or all schools that have rotations in the first year etc. This may differ from program to program though.
  12. To any second round applicants: Was the GRE an issue for anyone who had sub-par scores in one category (ie. in the 47th percentile in one category but above the 70th in the others)? When you received feedback was that something that was brought up? I appreciate it! I'm applying for this round and am a little scared about that aspect of my application.
