Omg please yes !

Congratulations to them are they PhD or masters ? Does their POI have funding?

Yea I don't know though, I feel like they reviewed my application but don't know if they want me or not. I'm being nitpicky now but she said decision and not reviewed which leads me to thinking this. James, did you hear back yet ?

There's someone else on here that didn't hear from VT also but what are the odds of both of us being in this situation with 100+ applicants

Virginia Tech got back to me and said no decision has been made on several applications and I'm one of them ! What does this mean ?!?! Are they hesitant to accept me ? Is this a sure rejection ?!

Yes soooooo many and usless stuff from my school too.

Me too this has not been a good week for me and I needed some good news.

May I ask who your advisor at Penn State is ?

Too bad I'm not hispanic........

That's rediculus.......

Anybody hear of any rejections from UT ?

Why do you say that ? :/

Usually it's the admissions committee that recommends the student to the POI and not the other way around

Phil said that if you haven't heard anything then a decision hasn't been made on you yet. They send out rejections and acceptances as soon as they are made. That's interesting that the advisor recommends that student and not the other way around.

Plus since it's an application status page, he's probably just going to tell me to keep checking it or at least that's what his recorder says

I don't know should I ? I feel like he wouldn't know/can't tell me

I feel like calling Phil up and asking what's going on with my application? lol

To some not all hopefully !

Dito

OMG congratulations !!!!

I wish

another UT Austin acceptance just went up...........

I feel your pain but with the GRE in my case. I'm expecting my POIs are going to ask why I did so crappy. In regards to UT, I'm sure some of us will hear this week from them and I'm pretty sure at least one of us here will get in so don't lose hope !

Is it by March or April ?

I mean to our credit we're pretty strong candidates and we come from one of the best geology programs in country so if none of us gets an acceptance I'd be shock. But who knows you might be right and it pains me to see that my chances at this school are dwindling.
