boynamedcrow Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) CU-Boulder is not sending out a second round of offers until after the 15th! I'm finishing up my MA there and it is my top choice for PhD, but I can't get any info out of anyone in the department, and other offers are on the table. Ahh, so stressful. Anybody in a similar situation or with words of wisdom? Edited April 11, 2013 by boynamedcrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cactus Ed Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I applied there too, and was very interested. Other offers with deadlines plus lack of useful information from the department plus a strange and, frankly, inconsiderate, even arrogant method of notification has forced me to write them off. I mean, do they seriously think people are going to risk losing their spots at other schools on the fifteenth based on the hope that they might be on some invisible waitlist?

cqc Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Curious to know if anyone has heard from Boulder for their second round of offers. At this point, I'm assuming I've been rejected, but it would be nice to know definitively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point, I'm assuming I've been rejected, but it would be nice to know definitively. I'm pretty sure one person in the waitlist thread ("Waiting for Guffman") claimed to have been accepted off of Colorado's invisible waitlist, and he/she ended up taking the offer. I can't confirm that with a results board listing, though. Other than that, I've heard nothing on my end.

Cactus Ed Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 P.S. I've already accepted another offer, but I, like you, want to know definitively. I don't know if I care enough to pester them though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebeatgoeson Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Oh hey y'all. Sorry - I totally forgot to update the results board. I did, in fact, accept the offer at Colorado. My impression was that I was that the process there is over this year, but I don't know definitively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cactus Ed Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Congrats on the acceptance! I figured the process had to be wrapping up, and I've already accepted elsewhere, but CU is the last school for me to hear from so I hope that rejection comes soon Best of luck, thebeatgoeson!

cqc Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Congrats! And thanks for the updates, both of you. I hope that rejection comes soon too just to have that final answer:) All the best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cactus Ed Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I will say, being that it's the 18th of April (over four months after the application deadline), it irks me that I still haven't received a decision. I kind of want my money back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
