PhD in English

I am too with the same status "Recommended for Assessment" since early March!!! What does that mean?!

Who is still waiting to hear from Carleton University about his/her application?

Hehe... I like the idea of "maybe they are considering me for funding" You are right, I will try to call them in a while. I hope it works for both of us. All the luck for you

I totally understand your situation... and I am thinking about the visa process because it takes time for sure. What makes me more anxious is that I was able to stay in touch with the department until the admission committee took their decision! It feels so bad that the decision is out and they mysteriously keep it a secret!!! I do not know if I should think positively about this waiting. Sometimes I say to myself: if it was a rejection, they would have informed me right away... so it must be something positive... Or maybe totally the opposite! What do you think?

I did not apply to your program, but I am facing the same waiting issue with Carleton. Last time I heard from my department was on March 23rd. The administrator told me that the admission committee just had the meeting this morning. All my emails after that date were not answered and I have no clue in what state or stage is my application!!! Not sure if I was accepted or rejected

Thanks fuzzylogician... I was only considering the offer if it covered tuition (thought I would work and to self-fund my stay). Of course I won't accept it... I don't even have money to pay for my courses! That's really sad though... I wonder why they offer it... it is only a teaser!

Mamma Mia!!! Thanks for the info

Getting accepted to a PhD program with "no funding". What does "no funding" mean? Does it cover at least tuition? Whoever has an idea, please let me know!

Thanks a lot... sorry it was a typing mistake... mine is "Recommended for assessment" not admission... I guess the hallucination of "admission" is taking over all my attention. Congratulations!!! I hope you are happy with the offer

Hello guys, Does anyone know if "recommended for assessment" status is a good sign at Carleton? My application status has been changing from: 1- Preliminary review required 2- Review in progress by department 3- Recommended for assessment (this is my current status) I highly appreciate if the ones who got admitted could explain to me their process. Just for the record, I am applying for a PhD program in English, but still the process is the same for the entire university, right? Please please please enlighten me... Many thanks in advance,

Has anyone applied to any of these institutions? Please let me know, I do not want to feel alone in this - University of Toronto - McMaster University - York University - Carleton University

Hello applicants... Please let me know if you have heard from any of these universities

1- University of Toronto 2- York University 3- McMaster University 4- University of Ottawa 5- Carleton University

How nice . Thanks for the advice... hehe. I just dropped the chocolate bar out of my hand... I have chicken in the fridge... I will aim for that. I really hope we hear soon from schools (preferably next week, I do not wanna think of March... it is too far )
