Oooh, well. I'll hold a tiny bit of hope. (It's so much better now that I have acceptance elsewhere so that would be nice from this school, but it doesn't make or break me.)
Also: I have a glass of wine right now and it is glorious.
Does anyone have any positive experiences with the "no news is good news" thing? One of the schools I applied to has acceptances, wait-lists, and rejections posted on the results... and I have no news... :/
Ughhhhh
I mean, I know I didn't get into UCLA- but it seems people have got acceptances, wait-lists, and rejections? Did anyone here get a rejection from them? How/when did you hear about it? I've gotten no emails and when I log in to the website, it says that no decision has been made yet :/
I do phonetics-phonology interface. I'm doing a masters degree in Canada at one of the better schools here. (My BA school was second tier.) I have a relatively prestigious Canadian MA level federal scholarship and two years of lab experience. I have two conference presentations and a publication in a small conference proceeding.
My research fit wasn't 100% though. The location would have been awesome though because I want to work on west coast dialects and phonetic realizations and how they support phonological theory.
UCLA was one of my top choices. UBC is second I think. I'm assuming rejection from Michigan. But oh well.
Well, I mean, one of my biggest fears was going to the US and then Trump getting elected and then everything being a mess. So, I guess that's not a concern anymore!
*sigh* that sucks. I'll console myself with saying that the fit wasn't good enough to justify moving to the States.
Here's hoping for good news from the Canadian schools...
No, I didn't apply there. And that's probably out of an unfair bias more than anything. (I really don't want to live in Alberta.)
I hear decent enough things about it though and Canada does have funded MAs and UAlberta is one of the better ones for that.
