By Grabthar's hammer, what a savings... NO apocalypse before all my decisions are in, dammit. http://youtu.be/kgv7U3GYlDY

Have we been stood up?

interminable wait

Stanford's still a possibility, perhaps. It's only 3:30 on this coast.

Stress SCREAM.

Me too. The Harvard Symbology/POI Robert Langdon acceptance a couple of weeks ago really made my night.

My rejection letters have all been extremely respectful. I don't have huge expectations, but I think someone at Chicago has lost sight of the fact that they have applicants' hopes and dreams in their hands. Would it be so hard to send a blast email, once they're sure, that informs applicants of the rejection? They could always mention that they're still working on MAPSS decisions.

Based on previous years' results, they seem to bundle the MAPSS acceptance with the PhD rejection.

The Chicago DGS answered me yesterday, and said (unceremoniously) that anyone who hasn't gotten an acceptance or wait-list notification has been rejected.

If you'd said "you prob'ly think this post is about you..." then I'd have gotten that one.

Assumed you were female, but I'm from an Italian-American neighborhood. Toni with an 'i' is always female, and Tony with a 'y' is always male.

Michigan and Berkeley both showed my scores as "not received" until the days they admitted me. In both cases, I contacted the departments weeks ago, and in both cases, they reassured me that they had the scores. My takeaway: some departments don't update the websites reliably. Call/email your department to make sure.

Congratulations!

What makes me feel comfortable is to be dressed appropriately for the setting. Unless that includes a corset or chaps.

I'll be curious to hear what people think about this. I assumed business casual... no tiaras, no concert t-shirts.
-
I haven't heard anything about it, and with a cursory Google search, there's not much that I can find about it that isn't written in German...

I think it's probably because they bundle MAPSS acceptances (and sometimes MAPSS funding) with their rejections, but I still wish they'd sent a blast email as soon as they'd made all of their acceptance and wait-list decisions. Oh well. Totally expected, and good to have closure on this one!
