Don't know if anyone else is waiting on Mizzou, but I have word from the DGS (solicited email) that results should come out next week. I'm guessing I'll be wait-listed...
For anyone waiting on UC Davis, I found out via email this morning that it's "unlikely" at this point that they'll be moving to the waiting list to fill slots this year. Unfortunate.
I emailed UMD, and it looks like they haven't set a wait list yet. Their initial offers have all gone out, and they're meeting to set a ranked waiting list next week.
I wonder what I need to do to get UBC to start sending out some PhD acceptances...?
I'd be willing to: Bust out my acoustic guitar and serenade them with Townes Van Zandt covers, do a ritual dance of some sort, pay a cash fee, perform challenges of various sorts, give back and foot rubs, or buy the entire faculty a round of beers.
I emailed ASU HPS to ask about my status, and they said they've sent a recommendation to the school of life sciences that I be admitted with support, and that the approval of their recommendation is "largely pro forma"... so it looks like I have an admit from ASU HPS!
UT is starting to feel like a rejection .
maybe they don't like me because my BA is from across town at St. Edward's University. Or maybe they just think I'm bad at philosophy. Probly the latter.
