Denver is an awesome city. Although i'd have to agree with the poster above, go with who gives you the most funding.

I'm playing this game as well. If I get only bad news over the next few days I might just have to disappear into the mountains for a few days, I'm wearing pretty thin. -

aaaand depression begins to set in. Ugh I was looking forward to hearing from Penn. I'm assuming no news is bad news. Congrats on the acceptance though Jolly! -

I was wondering the same thing, but didn't feel like starting yet another: Is any one claiming?...It's a hoax...Interesting how it's a rejection and not an acceptance...Is it real? etc. However, I cannot deny that I am curious. -

Isn't it Presidents Day? EDIT: i) Yes it is presidents day, ii) someone did some investigating to find out which schools are open (on the previous page). Thanks! -

Well, it looks as if the prankster has achieved his desired effect. -

This is what's happening to me as well. If I get good news from my top choice I'm going to cry I'll be so happy -

I'm not too sure about buzz, it looks like what I imagine twitter looks like (although I haven't ever used twitter so maybe I'm off base). I think google wave is pretty cool though! -

Man, that does seem a bit odd. I guess he just hates giving bad news. Now I'm paranoid that everything I've heard from the professors I've been in contact with is false! They're all lying through their teeth! -

I just got it too. It does seem a bit cold. -
Currently doing this somewhere in europe. It makes the distractions distracting, but it unfortunately also makes the lows quite manic.

Unfortunately for me, I am taking these applications way too personally. At this point I think I'll prepare all summer in an attempt to prove myself at grad school (should I ever get accepted anywhere).

Ugh If I get a request for an interview I am so screwed. I am in central europe and I don't think I could make it back... -

Looks like my no email/only website rejection set off a chain reaction on the results page. Whoops. Ziz-yeah that "rejecceptance" would be TERRIBLE -

Yeah, it was fairly emotionless for me as well. Weird. If it starts to look like I won't get anywhere (sneaking suspicion that it is headed that way) then I will be a disaster. -

Good lord. Who is claiming this icy move by rochester? -

I'm claiming the official northwestern rejection. No email, just checked their website after I saw a guy in applied mathematics or something do the same. -

I got an email from a cornell professor telling me that they expect decisions to be reached in the first half of march. The professor has been credible thus far, I can't find reason to doubt them...I've been claiming from the beginning that those cornell acceptances were a hoax -

Congrats Tan, that looks like a great offer! (I hope you get your acceptance as well ferrero, sorry for assuming you posted it) btw: anyone find it odd that these cornell acceptances say polisci instead of government on the results page? -

I received a letter the same day as the acceptance, I was waitlisted. :/ I also refuse to believe the Cornell or Penn acceptances because of how they have acted over the past few months, and after I found out the Brown acceptances were completely fabricated. -

For cornell and penn to be trickling notifications out just doesn't make sense to me. Both Tina Slater and Pat Kozak would have sent out mass emails or notifications or something! Someone's just having a little fun on the results page -

I think someone is trying to get some heart rates up. I know the Brown acceptances in late jan were a hoax, and it appears that the cornell and penn one are as well. -

That cornell acceptance has to be complete BS. I think tina slater made herself pretty clear...I hope.
