    Hello everyone, I'm an incoming PhD student to UMass. I've been looking for an apartment and I found "Squire village" and "Boulder apartment" pretty nice. I have a few questions about the apartments and the area so if anyone can answer any one of the questions, I'll appreciate it very very much! 1. I won't have a car probably for the first year. Do you think it'd be doable to commute from the two apartments to the school? 2. Overall, how much should I expect to pay for utilities? 3. This is not for the apartments but is there a place to buy some inexpensive furniture (e.i. a desk, a bed, a table...)? I don't mind using second hand ones . I appreciate any information regarding the two apartments or any other nice place you might want to recommend! Thanks!
  3. This happened to me as well. It's really unbelievable how this happened to quite a few of us.
  4. Oh! Thanks for the recommendations! I've checked the mendeley and it looks awesome! I'm starting my phd program this fall and I think this will definitely be useful!
  5. Mine has been updated as well and it was the bad one!! I know it's weird for me to sound so excited but I'm really content to exactly know what options I am dealing with now!
  6. Me too!! Fingers crossed for everyone waiting!
  7. Congrats emvtgse! I checked my status after i saw your post but still no change on mine.. I really hope they tell me soon one way or the other!! Argh!!!!!
  8. I got impatient and called too lol The person said the result will be out early March as what you were told... so I guess we could hear something (good or bad) from them next week!
  9. Yeah, I'm curious about the Social Foundations acceptance on the result pages as well. More so bc I applied to the exactly same specialization. Please share!
  10. I applied to UC Berkeley as well. I just called yesterday to ask approximately when the result would come out and they said it'd be from next week to the end of March. According to the research of the previous results, they almost always let the good news be out first about mid Feb. and then leave those who got rejected hanging till mid March!! So I'll assume that I don't have a chance if I don't get any news next week... Hope this helped those applied to Berkeley!
  11. Thanks so much, idontlikecoffee!!! I just got the email that the graduate committee recommended me for admission and they need the financial documents! (I don't know if this is required only for international students...) Do you happen to know how to find out about funding? should we just wait? I can't believe I got the admission!!!
  12. I'm waiting as well... According to the results search of previous years, their timeline for the decision making seems quite unpredictable..
  13. OOOOOOOOOO!! my status says "Your application has been academically approved and is now in Financial Review. Items with a status of Incomplete are still needed by the office listed in the Contact column." too!! Does this mean I'm admitted??? Please bear with me... this is my second round of application and my first official news was a rejection so I don't know what an 'acceptance' looks like!!
  14. Oh, thanks! When you said you got a status update, did your status said you were admitted? And, can I ask you when you got the email and was it from your POI or from the department? I'm sorry for bombarding you with so many questions! I haven't heard anything till now... and I'm getting nervous and even depressed a little!!
  15. Oh thanks for sharing the information! Can I ask you when you got the email?
