I am on the wait list for funding too and I accept the admission. My adviser told me they still have many research grants pending, which kinda give me hope. And I was told that students who have come without funding have generally been able secure GAships. Anyway, preparing for the worst. I can support myself in the first year, but only the first year.
Hi, don't panic, I guess my situation is quite rare... I got explanation from that professor yesterday, which is very negative and not warm. She said they are unable to provide me with any funding, and if I can support myself they will let me off the wait list. This sucks! In the unofficial ad email, she said " We are still trying to figure out what funding packages might be available," then without any notification, I am waitlisted! Damn!
Anyone experienced from unofficial admission to wait list? Got email from an POI informing me about unofficial admission on March 23. I wrote her today, asking about when I can get official admission, but got reply saying that " right now you are waitlisted". ...Just wonder what is happening!
Thank you!
You mean game-based learning? That's an interesting topic and I also mentioned in my SOP.
Good luck to your application.
The waiting is almost killing me...
IUB ( in person interview on Feb 27th), Vanderbilt (rejected), Arizona State (heard nothing yet), Stanford ("why not try" school) , Penn State ( accepted, not LS program)
How about you?
Hi amjodo, I have't heard anything yet.. Based on what I know from the virtual info session, I think I got rejected cuz it is already the end of January
Someone with a MIT master degree in related field and a handful of publications still got rejected in 2013... Well I am not nervous at all now..." why not try" school....
