Sure! You should've received some login information when you applied "hawkeye ID" or something-- go to isis.uiowa.edu and login with that account info. On the right side of the screen there's a link to "admissions profile." Click there-- the screen that comes up shows you information about your application, your test scores, etc. Application status is listed on the middle of the page. Mine still says application in progress. Best of luck!
I'm wondering that as well. I applied to Iowa and my status hasn't changed from "in progress." I was also under the impression based on communications with the DoE and the results board of previous years that results aren't usually released before the first week of March. And it looks like at least about ten people posted that they were admitted in 2011, and I'm assuming not everyone admitted posts on gradcafe. I'm trying to console myself by thinking that perhaps the admitted individuals were in comp/rhet or creative writing, but there's no way to tell based on the results page.
I originally assumed the acceptances were fellowships as well, but a couple of them posted that funding information was still forthcoming. I guess the result could've been creative writing or comp/rhet-- maybe someone here will know!
Yeah I get that the schedules can change at any time, I'm just asking because when I called (about three weeks ago) to verify my recommendations and transcripts, they said it would still be a couple of weeks before the application components were matched together. I've never heard of an ad comm making offers in 2-4 weeks, but I guess there's a first time for everything.
Does anyone have any solid information on Iowa? Their application deadline was less than a month ago and there are already acceptances on the results page. They usually don't notify until March, so I'm curious as to why there are already a couple of admits.
