I'm waiting on 2 schools. It looks like there are a lot of people still waiting.

It's okay. I interviewed at two schools and have heard absolutely nothing from them. Everytime I check my application status, I either get sent back to my interview invitation or get the message "currently under review". The best part is Stony Brook (the under review one) sent me immigration papers to fill out, but I still don't know if I am in or not.

I try distracting myself. I sit at my computer, engrossed in mindless activity to wear away the hours. Then, I see a green flash, fallowed by a ring. "A new email!" I cry as I excitedly grab my phone. I unlock it, heart pounding. The email is in the account I use for my grad school applications. I hurry to open it, hoping for good news and then... "[WHRW] GET EXCiTED FOR MARATHON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!". First there is soul crushing disappointment, but then, almost suddenly, an intense fury rises up: "Who DARES to try to rise my hopes, only to dash them quickly? Fuck you, WHRW, FUCK YOU!". And then silence as I delete the email. It is no more, and I am calm. And so the cycle begins again.

Illinois State Speech Language Pathology Masters, Rejected via Website on Mar. 14 2014 "I pulled out a bowl to put soup in, I have forgotten if I put the soup in because I see the can not opened, but why is my bowl full, oh because I have a bowl full of tears, rejection soup, with a combination of five different types of rejects" This made me laugh. Good luck man!

I don't know if this is helping me either but it is nice to know there are people going through the same thing. Good luck to you and congrats to everyone who has been accepted!

House of Cards is great! I also recommend 30 Rock and Parks and Rec.

I think I got into Stony Brook's Molecular Bio and Microbio, maybe? I'm a US Citizen, and said so on my application, but due to a computer glitch I got asked to fill out immigration paper work (I spoke to the program coordinator and apparently this is a common problem, but it is fixed). However, I haven't gotten a letter from them yet. Yay limbo?

I already talked to the program coordinator and they straightened out. It was weird, the department I applied to knew I was an American student because I said so on my application, it's just a glitch in the software that sent my information to visa and immigration. When I applied the application wouldn't let me submit my application unless I clicked both US Citizen AND Permanent Resident, and this caused visa and immigration to get my info despite the fact I submitted my social with my application. According to my program's admissions this is a common problem. Thank you so much for the fast reply!

Hi there! Due to a glitch in the software they use for their applications, I accidentally got labelled as an international student at one of my schools. As a result I was recently asked to begin filling out immigration paperwork. What does this mean? Do schools ask all international students to do this regardless of application standing or do they only ask if they are trying to accept you? Thank you for your help!

I checked both schools I interviewed with and both of them told me nothing! One said that my decision was available, but it just brought me to the interview acceptance page (I should have known when the date available was 1/02/14). The other one said that my application was being reviewed by the admissions committee. This is driving me insane! *cries*

Alright! Congrats and good luck!

My rejections have been actually been pretty okay. I got rejected from Rockefeller first, which was unsurprising but I got a very nice letter. Then I got rejected from U Penn, which sucked because it was my number one choice, but not surprising since everything that could go wrong my application did. The only thing that sucked was that I got rejected while in the middle of an interview at another school, which I guess is the best case scenario? I just laughed when I got rejected from Boston. It sucked since I thought I was definitely going to get in at least to the Masters program, but it wasn't all that surprising. I would keep forgetting that I applied there and when I did remember I couldn't recall if I applied to Boston College or Boston University. I'm pretty sure that not remembering which school I applied to is a good reason to get rejected, so no hard feelings. Now the waiting is killing me. I keep getting good news indirectly, but I haven't heard from my remaining schools yet. AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
