No bad news can be good news, JTE! Congrats that you're in the running for UVA! What a fantastic program. Wishing you luck, and good luck for all of us this week!

That is encouraging... Until I hear further I will cling to that small hope haha

I'm in the same boat JJWS. I've heard that Emory has already released all acceptances, but I feel that it's all speculation at this point. I'm also wondering the same thing about Vanderbilt... I know that a few acceptances went out early last week (congrats to those folks by the way!) but no word since. The silence is deafening!

Thanks JTE! I have a good feeling about today and tomorrow... since this is already the 3rd week in February I feel like a bunch of schools will hopefully try to release decisions by the weekend... hoping we all get some more good news to report soon, and some more green to highlight school names in our signatures!!

WOW congrats KBHistorian! I felt my stomach flip for you when I read that. How crazy. Hoping that today is a great day for acceptances!!

I know Vandy's killing me. Nashville must be covered in ice or something, otherwise it seems like the amount of snow they've gotten would not warrant two days of cancelled classes.

Fellow Duke victims: I feel your pain. I sort of knew I would be rejected when several people got their admits over a week ago, but it still stings. Also got rejected from the University of Tennessee today, which definitely wasn't my top choice (they have about 6 medievalists but don't do social history, which is my field) so I understand why they didn't accept me, and yet, two rejection emails in a 10 min span is still a serious bummer. Vanderbilt hurry up and get back to work so you can tell us something! Ahhhh!

Hi Josh, yes I am applying to Vanderbilt, for late medieval European history. Caferro is my contact there. I'm from the South so I'm really hoping to have this option! I'm all for the department fighting for additional slots.

Good luck to everyone today! I hope we hear back from some more schools! Is anyone else surprised that it's already lunchtime on the East coast and not much activity yet?? I figured that Vandy for sure would release today.

Hello all! Joining in on the forum a bit late. I am the University of Miami admit from last week. Just got my rejection from Princeton also. Not really that surprised, but it was worth a shot! Congrats to all the Princeton admits!

Wow it's like we're twins. My interest is almost the exact same... medieval women, sexuality, and marriages practices, high-late. And you're right, the silence is deafening. Every day without another rejection letter is a good day, but I am getting desperate just to hear any news.

Hello, I'm new to the forum! I'm a medievalist and so far I have only heard from Minnesota too; a rejection. The silence from all my other schools is total agony. I just want to find out, one way or another!
