      I dunno about @eternalwait, but I'm up (2:22am here) as anxious as ever. I have a feeling that I'll be losing sleep until this whole thing is over. How are you and your leg holding up?

    Either the pain of this process is distracting me from the pain of the torn ligaments in my knee, or the torn ligaments in my knee are distracting me from the pain of this process.

    Just found out I won't hear a thing until the end of January AT THE EARLIEST. Today, one program emailed applicants to remind us of the due date and that many applicants have thus far failed to turn in the supplementary application. WHY ARE YOU REMINDING THEM! THIS IS COMPETITIVE PLEASE STOP

      I concur. Other than LORs, people unable to meet deadlines should be weeded out ASAP. Survival of the punctual! Also, if they would give bonus points for being early....... That'd be awesome!

      I MEAN REALLY IF YOU CAN'T REMEMBER A DEADLINE YOU SHOULDN'T GET IN.

      @AspiringScholar17 THANK YOU!!! I won't do that self-deprecating thing we all do and say something like I probably won't get any funding

    Just sent an email with a simple question to a program director, and I swear I never agonized like that over the content, structure, and language of an email. 

    Everyone's like "be yourself"..."but not like, TOO much yourself..."

    WTF DOES THAT MEAN

      HA right @DBear ??? Santa, I'll take the offer of admission, tuition remission, fellowship, and stipend with my word to you that I will....not be as much of a bitch next year. Maybe.

      "as much" and "Maybe" - you should get points for being realistic and honest!

      I'm on Craigslist looking for a time machine - if I can find a two seater, you can hitch a ride!

    Hey if you're still on here, I applied to UIC for same program (criminology law justice phd), waiting to hear back. I would LOOOOOOVE to pick your brain, see how it's going, all that jazz.

  11. PhDorBUST

    Grades are officially in, and I've been told no decisions will be made before Christmas. I'm not going to see family for the holiday (Florida to PA? No way), friends are out of town, sick, all application materials submitted...I am horrible at waiting.
