yes, it was me. I emailed the director of graduate studies and she told me that I did not make it. she did not mention the status of anyone else or if all the accepted candidated had already been contacted....

great initiative! im so interested in reading your answers!

Im sorry. The person that actually contacted me just mentioned things related to my own situation and did not state anything else...

Could the person that has been unofficially admitted to Columbia tell us more about the whole thing? thanks!!

I got another rejection: Stanford. If what you say about Chicago is true, then my only hope is Columbia. I also applied to the NSSR but I don´t think that I'll get funding and even if UNC accepts me, I'm not sure I want to go there. I hope some day I'll thank destiny/fate/the stars for all these rejections. Do you know if one can ask the departments to tell you why the application was not competitive? thanks! Applied: Berkeley, Stanford, Columbia, UNC, NSSR, Chicago Rejected: 2 Waiting: 4

congratulations vanishingpoint! after my first rejection yesterday, I'm starting to think that my research proposal might not be so interesting for universities or maybe they may not value the career I had till now or my geographical area of interest.. would you mind telling me -at least in a private message- what is your research proposal about, your geographicall area of interest or any other element that you consider has helped you becoming such a successful candidate? thank you so much. I do appreciate it.

I got my first rejection today: berkeley!

do you think that American universities tend to take more time in letting intl applicants know if they have been accepted or not? thanks! applied: UCBerkeley, Stanford, Columbia, Chicago, UNC, The New School

<br /><br /><br /> He told me yesterday that "Decisions will be coming out within a couple of days". He did not tell me I was rejected... could this mean anything good?

has anyone heard news about UNC, Stanford and Berkeley (phd anthropo) ? many thanks!

thank you so so much. I haven´t heard from her before. thanks!
