For Sociology, people generally refer to the USNew's rankings of Sociology programs. Per U.S. News methodology, Sociology's response rate was 33 percent. By contrast, the response rate for Criminal Justice programs was 90 percent. Rankings were based solely on the impressions of department heads and director of graduate studies that responded to the survey.

Congratulations on passing your comps, @Quickmick! Keep up the good work!

Thanks for fixing it for Mississippi! I've noticed that Google Sheets does sometimes rearrange where data is inserted if it's resorted. I'm not sure if there's a way to prevent that from happening.

I just want to note that the April 15th resolution only applies to funded offers.

I think this is a good idea because it is after April 15th and would help provide closure. At the very least, it helps convey your interest.

When you go to the top of the topic, do you see a "Follow" button below the search function?

I think more information might be helpful for people to help you decide. What field are you in? What offers are you considering? How do you feel about the location of the places you're considering?

I've always been curious on how much impact one group could have if everyone collaborated with each other on various opportunities.

You can do this. I believe in you. You have this!

That's awesome! Congrats!

Did they tell you whether their waitlist was ranked or unranked? If you haven't heard from the department coordinator, have you tried reaching out to the DGS? Do you know if others have had success in contacting them? Have you tried calling the department coordinator? Depending on when you contacted them, it is possible that your e-mail was buried or went into spam. A phone call might allow you to receive a faster response and be able to receive a better idea of the likelihood of an offer being extended to you. I think most colleges are willing to provide you with an idea of where you currently stand.

FWIW: A number of universities accept twice as many applicants as they have spots for. Some universities also have waitlists that are determined by time periods. It's likely that 2 people in your time period will need to reject their offer before an offer from the waitlist could be made. It's also possible that the department could be buried under preparing for classes next semester.

Congrats! Congratulations!

First off, congratulations on being hired as an Assistant Professor! My first inclination is to say to ask permission from @TGCA. If permission is obtained, I think you'll find posting in your subject's subforum (Computer Science) to have the greatest impact.

Congratulations @Bopie5! Such wonderful news!
