That's how I feel, too -- it's costly to apply, and it seems too risky to spend $100+ to apply somewhere that you have no connection to when that is actually a pretty important indicator of your potential success in admittance IMO.
-
Personally, no. But I don't think it's bad to do that.
-
Anyone - feel free to PM your CV or SoP for edits I can send you mine, as well!
-
Definitely! I'll shoot you a message. That's a rough discovery!!!

Hi everyone! I'm reapplying this year too. I have a [kinda final] draft of my SoP if anyone is willing to edit -- and I'll of course edit anyone's as well! I'm feeling really positive about this year. Good luck to all of us

Feel free to PM if you want to chat about MAPSS!
-
@hantoo this happened to me when I applied Fall of 2015. I ended up doing MAPSS and am REALLY glad that I did -- I think it has a lot of benefits, including being able to study whatever you want and take whatever classes you want. I think the only downside is the money, but if you petition they end up giving you a scholarship.

@AnthropologyNRTCongratulations!! I might PM you at some point to chat about your process if that's okay? I'm ending my second round of applying now and haven't been fruitful. On that note ...anybody know how likely it is to get admitted off of waitlists? Trying to decide if I need to start looking for jobs...

I found that doing a masters really helped me figure out my specific interests. This is my second round applying to programs - and during my first round, I was only accepted into a masters. I'm glad I did it!
-
yes please!

Hahaha thanks for the welcome and the laugh, @EvelynD I applied to 4 !

Just received my rejection from Boston. At this point, I'm expecting rejection from Boulder as well since I haven't heard anything other than "you'll get a letter in the mail later this week" -- doesn't sound promising. BOOOO.
-
I called and they just said it meant I'd be getting a letter in the mail by the end of the week. Not sure what kind of letter, but thought I'd let you know what I found out!
-
I'm assuming this means waitlist, but I just checked Boulder's portal and have the following message: A decision on your application has been postponed. You will be contacted with details.
-
Anyone have an idea for Boulder's timeline? Based on former years they do earlyish February. Not sure if there is a more concrete timeline or not.

Anyone claiming the 2 Michigan acceptances? I don't have anything written on my Wolverine App Status 0_0

Likely that Emory PBEE isn't sending more out? Should I accept rejection? -

This is good to know - thanks for mentioning it. The wait is killing me too, but it's definitely better knowing that it'll still be a while!! -
Has anyone heard from Emory PBEE? Why does waiting suck so muchhh

My top choice program had the earliest deadline (Dec 1) and now that it's done, I'm having such a huge gap in motivation. I don't wanna do any more! And I'm impatient about results. Anyone else feeling this? Haha.
-
@EvelynD I only have 4 too! And am also considering making it 3...
-
Congratulations @Bschaefer!!! I'm about to submit my application to Emory ... I had a full bibliography in my SoP, but maybe I should get rid of it? Hmm. Good luck everyone!
