  1. curufinwe, would next week, or two weeks, give you enough time to make a decision?
  2. Time for still another week of admission decisions, as the number of schools still out dwindles to a small handful. Expect, too, for sundry individuals to begin turning down schools. The wait-listers may begin getting some action.
  3. Also no indication from GWU.
  4. On the contrary, I applaud Johns Hopkins for their wisdom in summarily declining your file. The fewer preening grammarians in academe (or online) the better!
  5. I'm not sure what to make of this coming from a JHU applicant, where vague and obscure scholarship is in great demand.
  6. Given the origins of pedobear, it would certainly be just for me to bearnap him.
  7. No love for the bear? A happy coincidence that admit season winds down as March Madness gears up.

  9. Does anyone care to phone Notre Dame to see if they are even there (it is spring break)? Seems the only way to determine if this raft of rejections is even possible.
  10. They are fake. Too many people here didn't get one. Same loser in his parents' basement farting around. Good luck in academe champ.
  11. Regrettably, the people who would have been of most help to you have already left. The forum has a high and quick turnover.
  12. Some acceptances have been claimed (in this thread). Some wait-lists have been claimed. Only one possibility left...
  13. Time to discuss: why did APGradApplicant apply to the schools he did?
  14. Bizarre rejection from a SEC school I applied to: "Dear Keller, Thank you for applying to the department of political science at X. I regret to inform you that you have been discarded. We received many qualified competitors for only a few slots. I wish you the best of luck in your future studies." Discarded? Like a book?
  15. Not sure any of their grads got jobs this year.
  16. They definitely do not pay everyone's tuition. I don't know how this chestnut got going (as I've seen it repeated many times), but it is untrue.
  17. APGradApplicant, your request is completely legitimate. Over the past week, this place has turned into the end scene of "Apocalypse Now". It is a result of bitterness of acceptances drying up or the thin veneer of decorum presaging admission season wearing off. Everyone was happy about getting laid by their dream school, and now they have either blue balls or they are tired of the pillow talk and want a cigarette. Sadly, I don't think you'll know anything until after visiting weekend, whenever that is. Few people will turn down a funded getaway weekend (even if one is not going to accept, I imagine it's good for networking). So I would try to glean information on when that is. Then, those who will decline will likely wait an appropriate length of time to give the impression that they are showing due deliberation -- a week -- and you will get accepted.
  18. OK, I confess: I am everyone on this site except you, the person reading this.
  19. DC caucuses (caucii?) have a difficult time being timely.
  20. Entering the second week of March as traffic on the Grad Cafe beltway slows to a crawl. Sundry users waiting on Brandeis, WashU, New School, Brown...who else? Expect departments to be pressed with increased urgency to get decisions out (e.g., MIT Fed-Ex-ing letters overnight). 4/15 is (almost) a month away.
  21. CIR, no. If it were Yale...
  22. I googled some photos of east Harlem. Seems nice, gentrified.
  23. I googled this term and am afraid to ask what it means.
  24. curiousgeorge, what kinds of side jobs do students get to pay for expenses. This could be a great opportunity for someone like yourself to become a barista.
