Lol barely. Glad to know someone else still has a pulse as well. This week will be interesting.

I'm going through a similar situation. I recently got rejected from my last place school which isn't even ranked. Thought it would be easy. It really makes you feel though you won't get into anywhere So I can relate. But try to stay positive and keep the faith Hope this helps you in some way.

Welcome ! Got my first rejection today but honestly it kind of helped take some pressure off. Do not worry, the wait will not be anything compared to the joy of your good news

Has Duke started sending out rejection emails? I saw one posted and was curious.

Wow. This news is so depressing lol. Ill probably just pace a hole in my floor now lol

Yikes ! I wonder if that is "dramatically reduced" from the 12-15 figure I was quoted. This is not good news

Right! My heart sank. Now I know how all the OSU applicants felt. Lol

I already posted it here but ill pm you !

Ditto, hon. Lets keep our spirits lifted

The professor is independently conducting the interview ... I supposed. Am I correct on this meaning New England ?

Thanks for your response ! Guess I will just have to be more patient and let things play out

No someone posted it on the survey that they got an interview from emory African history. From my research I think it's only one professor in that field. Not too sure, so maybe it is independent by the professor ?! Not sure. No I am freaking out because I haven't been contacted . This is a little early. Hope it's a fake post lolll haha(that was mean of me) lol

Anyone know who posted the emory interview for African history ? Sorry to sound anxious but it's one of my top choices!

Hi! I applied to places like UNC and Emory. Those especially strong in southern history. I am dying during this waiting process lol. I hope everyone is having a more pleasant wait than me !

I worked with Dr. Austin in undergrad. He is an excellent professor! I didn't know until recently that he was at OSU now or I would've applied good luck to you guys !

This made me chuckle. Good luck to you! Lol

Greetings, Thanks for your response ! Also nice to meet you and know that you are a fellow southern like me! Maybe we can help each other out during this waiting process lol. I do thank you for your kindess. I'm really nervous

Sorry I forgot to quote you. Thanks for asking. I'm nervous because most of those schools pick a very small number. Do you know if having the exact same research as a poi will increase your chances ?

Emory, unc chapel hill, unc greensboro, duke, uva, and uga. My focus is southern and African American history. My top choice is emory due to a poi there. I am hoping my writing sample helps. I submitted all 75 pages even though I wasn't supposed to lol

New to the board. I was reading fall 2012 and was intrigued. I too have submitted all of my applications and am anxious. Looking forward to the wait process with you guys I am hoping I get at least 1 of the 6 schools I applied for.
