So I applied to a program back in February. I figured I would hear by now. I had called graduate admissions before and left 2 messages as well as emailed. No one ever got back to me. Finally today I reached someone in person who told me that no decision had been made yet and I could hear this week or next or later... basically the guy had no idea when I might hear. I'm coming up on the deadline of the other program I want to participate in (its online as opposed to on-campus like this other one is) and getting nervous about not hearing. I feel like I've made a fool of myself now by calling up and asking, and even now leaving a message to the Director of Graduate Admissions asking her if she might know and stupidly saying I was coming up on deadlines and was waiting to hear from them (hopefully implying that they are my top, top choice). I feel now I have made a fool of myself asking but... it's almost May!
This is one of the most ridiculous process I have been through. I don't understand how it's almost May and no decision has been made! The deadline for the other program to register is May 1st! Who do they think they are just leaving me hanging like this?
I don't know if anyone else can tell but I am ever so not slowly going insane. I'm worried now that I just ruined my chances because its going to go down the grapevine from admissions that I want a decision soon and that they are just gonna go "ok well lets rush this and tell her no if she wants an answer so bad."
I am going to scream if my brain doesn't shut the hell up. The worst part is, is that I know they set out acceptances in mid-March already. So how did mine not get a decision?
