I can cross off Vanderbilt.
Quite a bummer, as that was one of my top choices.
PS - It seems that they are unable to accept anyone this year. I do wish I had known that before applying, but it is a testament to the economy.
I'm sorry to hear about that. That's weird that they'd even open applications up if they even thought they couldn't accept anyone. I agree with Michelle that they should refund the money. It seems a little unfair.

The SOP in French was the killer for me. I found myself translating one paragraph a day and getting burnt out.
Yeah. That part was frustrating to me so it felt like it took forever. 500 words isn't a lot but it's hard when you're just talking about yourself basically haha.

My application was in pretty early but my voice recordings were turned in on one of the last days before the deadline.

Wj2011, yes I'm a TA at UofL right now. I bet being a cards fan gets you in a lot of trouble haha.
I'm not as upset as I thought I would be. It's nice just to get some sort of news. I went to the zappos outlet for good measure though and got a cute pair of shoes for dealing with rejection.
The programs are taking a long time to respond. I've been waiting for NYU and Wisoncsin for what seems like forever.

Well IU sent me a rejection email/letter today saying I'll have a hard copy in the mail soon. Eh...I'm good with only a rejection email I don't need a second copy haha.

Certainly seems like activity is picking up. I also received a rejection email from Michigan yesterday, so I'm obviously hoping for better results in the next few days/weeks.
Sorry to hear about that. I hope you get better news soon!!
I haven't heard anything either, Michelle.
-
Seeing results pop up make me more and more impatient even if they aren't from schools I applied to...I can't stop checking my email either.
-
Congratulations as well, sandie! My friend also applied to UT Austin but for foreign language education. I've heard good things about it.
Hope everyone gets some more good news soon :]
-
Wasn't me either D:
-
Definitely not pathetic. I'm still checking my emails every few hours and keeping my phone close...you never know haha. It does make me feel like I'm going crazy though.

Hey everyone! I'm finishing up my MA this semester and hoping to do a PhD. I applied to IU, NYU, Penn State and University of Wisconsin-Madison.
French PhD 2013, anyone?

I just hope this day of rejections ends quickly and next week brings better news. Do programs give notice of any kind on weekends?
