I've heard of one admittance thus far. Has anyone heard anything? I got the feeling that there were multiple users on this site who had applied and I would sure like to know more. Anyone know anything about what is going on up in Iowa City right now?

Anyone want to claim the UIowa admit? Was it a personal email acceptance, or a stock email? Let's see if I can cross Iowa off the list. Thank you...

Another Brandeis result; anyone want to claim ownership? I'm still waiting to hear from them, and it's killing me. *Laughs*

Hi All, With the admissions season well under way, I have a question regarding a submitted application. I noticed after further investigation into University of Nebraska's (my safety) graduate newsletter, that the program appears to universally admit PhD. students to the program who already have a Master's. Nowhere on the school's website or in any other supplementary documents that I have seen has it established admission to the PhD. program as contingent on the applicant holding a Master's. With this information, I am worried that my application will be disregarded--since I have only a B.A.--and I will have wasted an application fee. This is especially disconcerting because it appears that I might have to lean on my safety school the way decisions have been coming thus far. So, two questions: Do you think I will be reverted to the MA applicant pool upon the committee's recognition that I do not have an MA? If this is not a safe bet, would it be appropriate to email the DGS, or the Department chair, and explain my situation. My status was just updated to 'Under Review,' and they have been very diligent about updating whenever there is the slightest change (They even send out weekly updates!), so I am assuming they have just started reading applications. Is it too late? How would a request of this nature be viewed? Should I have known, and will it reflect poorly on my research into the program? Any help on this matter would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!

I haven't gotten an acceptance, rejection, or waitlist from Brandeis. I've seen all three on the board. Should I call about this? I confirmed the status of my application. What could this mean?

Nevermind! Rockeater, what did Brandeis say, if you care to share? Did they send out acceptances (I'm assuming).

I see a UMinn admit on the results board. Who is it (if you'll share) and what field?

Does anyone know anything about the admissions statistics for WUSTL?

Beautiful campus, northshore suburban Evanston right outside city limits, good program, and don't they full fund? I think I would sell my soul for that too.

You and me both buddy. Hey, at least you got 12 schools on the docket though! I'm rethinking the advice I received to on only applying to 6-7. Bit less wiggle room...

I have the same, ominous feeling. Personally, I'm going to the bar everytime I hear back from a school--whether it's in the affirmative, or negative.

Thanks for the info guys! -Grant

I Second that...I wonder what this means for those who have applications "still under review..." at UW--such as me. Either they haven't posted rejections yet, or admissions are rolling in rounds? I'm leaning towards the former. Anyone have any insight on this matter? Congrats to the three that have made the cut! -Grant
