Finally heard from NYU today and I got offered an unfunded Masters. Turning it down though. I guess it's at least good to know that one other school kind of wanted me.

Well I just accepted WashU's offer of admission. Very excited of course. While I have yet to hear from NYU, this process is over for me!

I just emailed them. Did you check that you are willing to consider an MA with them if they reject you for Ph.D.? I did and I suspect that's the reason I haven't heard.

Aww, thanks Sigaba! That's the plan of course . I'm lucky to have WashU though. I won a second fellowship in American Studies from them last week, so I don't think I'll be turning them down.

I haven't heard from them yet (I assume I'll be rejected too!). But hey, why should it matter, we're both going to WashU next year!

That has to be a good sign for you. I was rejected by Virginia last night. Not a big deal for me though because they aren't particularly strong in my period of American History and I definitely wouldn't have gone there. I just got nominated for an additional fellowship in American Studies at WUSTL. Very excited about this opportunity!

My adviser is talking to connections she has at the places where I was rejected and I'm getting great feedback and a lot of encouragements to reapply. Now I really have to decide if I should go to WUSTL or wait and reapply next year...

Columbia rejection too.

Yup. Just got my Harvard rejection. Not exactly crushed though. I was expecting it.

Really? I didn't get anything.

Oh boy...saw a Harvard rejection on the results board. I'll be expecting a nice little rejection letter waiting for me in the mailbox today. holding on tight to my one acceptance...

I'm not in soc but I just saw this thread on the main forum page. What year did you graduate? I did my UG there too....class of 2011.

I'm doing the same for WashU!

Oh Sandy I'm so sorry you're upset. I've felt pretty down a few times this season myself. Please don't give up hope. I know NYU for one is still very much in the game right now and I don't think I've heard anything about Clark.

I know how you feel. I get the same feeling whenever I see an acceptance from a school that I applied to.
