majorshake Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I feel if I really vent my feelings about DePaul and Villanova taking their time to consider the applicants, then I'd somehow jinx myself. But come on you guys, I just want to know, I don't even care if its a rejection (omg I care so much). MVSCZAR and LLeuven 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously!! I've planned a visit to the school that already accepted me but hasn't decided on funding yet, and I'm like "okay so what if I show up with like, gift baggies for everyone?" bechkafish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The link is relevant to every application, because every application is a mistake when you could instead be reading philosophy in Hawaii with a faculty that takes their department photos wearing luaus.

Chrysippus'Doge Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I'm beginning to wonder if my applications even got to departments. I mean, I know they did because it says so on the websites... but for all the feedback I've gotten, I might as well not have even applied. In short, I'm losing my damn mind.

I'm with you so, so much. It's kind of the archetypal, funny thing, oh look how stressful this is, admissions season is the worst, but I mean. It's genuinely depressing. And it's hard to keep a consistent mood level when you're vacillating back and forth between brash confidence and the depths of self-loathing. I literally got sad today because I saw a little bird hopping around on the sidewalk and I thought his little feet must be cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majorshake Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I just realised one of my supervisors had an unsuccessful job interview at one of the schools I applied to and haven't heard from yet. If they didn't want him, they probs won't want me. Might as well count that as a rejection, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Positions are extremely difficult to get, just the fact that he got an interview I'd say is a plus for your application because of the positive name recognition. Just because someone was ultimately unsuccessful doesn't mean they left a negative impression on the committee. Ritwik 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bechkafish Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I like that the acceptance thread was "hot" earlier and now it's the venting thread. The shine has worn off the first two weeks and the madness has finally begun to set in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
