    @AuntieGrandma only has 2 actual admission offers and they haven't even received the pertinent financial information to make the decision between those programs. And they stated that once they had the information they would make their decision and decline one of those 2 programs.

    Congratulations on your acceptances! I will wait as long as I can in hopes of getting accepted of the waitlist at my top choice. However, I declined to be considered at the waitlist at one of programs. But I'm also going to decline one of the two admission offers I have received as soon as I decide which of the two programs I prefer to attend.

    Congratulations on your acceptance to UCI. It is a great program with wonderful faculty members. If you wouldn't mind would you please message me the initials of your POI, thank you.

    I feel the same way about everyone I met at the interviews for UCI's Psychology & Social Behavior program. They were all so wonderful, talented, and qualified that any of them would make a great addition to the program. However, I wouldn't mind if the declined and went elsewhere so I could be admitted.

    Best of luck to you. Do you have any idea what the likelihood of getting admitted from the waitlist is?

    I love this thread, it's so encouraging for a non-traditional student like myself. I only finished my BA in 2016, when I returned to school after I divorced after more than 10 years of marriage. I had married right after high school, so returning to school was a bit of a shock. When I returned to school I never imagined that I would be pursuing a PhD.

    In both cases I was notified by graduate coordinator that I was being waitlisted. They also asked whether I was interested in being on the list and that I keep in touch while making my decisions.
  8. OptimiscallyAnxious
    I noticed that in past years there had been a waitlist thread so I thought I would create one. I've been waitlisted at 2 programs. I really fell in love with one of them and I'm hoping that I'll be able to get off the waitlist and into the program. Best of luck to all of those in the same situation.

    Best of luck for your up on no trip to SAM. I had thought it would be an easy choice if I was accepted to my first choice (UCI) but after having more interaction with faculty at another institution I'm not so sure.
  10. OptimiscallyAnxious
    Congratulations, again. I was also accepted to UCI and it had been my top choicr from the start. However, I've been pleasantly surprised at the level of support and encouragement I've received from faculty at another university. It's making me really consider this other institution. Although, UCI is still my choice at the moment. Best of luck as you consider your admissions.

    Congratulations on your UCI acceptance!

    Congratulations on your acceptance to UCI, @a little-stitious
  13. OptimiscallyAnxious
    Anyone else want to claim the UCI acceptances? Congratulations to all those admitted.
  14. OptimiscallyAnxious
    I'm sorry I know the wait is unbearable. Hopefully, you'll get some good news soon. I'm so sorry, that must be so incredibly frustrating. You can always try emailing the graduate coordinator to make sure they were received. Best of luck to you.
  15. OptimiscallyAnxious
    As far as UCI, has anyone here been admitted to the psychology & social behavior program? I haven't seen anything on the results page. I was waitlisted there and I'm just wondering.
  16. OptimiscallyAnxious
    Notifications of admissions decisions were extended yesterday. Congratulations to all those lucky enough to receive them!

    I had begun to psych myself up to reapply next year and then I end up receiving 2 acceptances in one day. I still can't believe it. I feel so relieved and grateful. Best of luck for everyone still waiting for responses.

      @Freudian Slip and @CoffeeFueledAnxiety Thank you so very much. I was not expecting it.

      Thanks for posting this! I'm beginning to think that I'll get nothing this year (2 rejections, 6 to go), but this looks hopeful! And congratulations :)

      @MilesToGo Thank you very much. 

      I can empathize with you. I received my two rejections early on, which made me apprehensive about the rest of my applications. I just had made up to reapply next year and had contacted professors about ways to improve next year's applications. Then my fortune changed. Moral of the story, don't give up hope... it's still early and you still have 6 applications in play.

      Best of luck to you!

  18. OptimiscallyAnxious
    I'm sorry about Iowa. Best wishes on your remaining applications.
  19. OptimiscallyAnxious
    I'm sorry about your day... sending positivity and good thoughts your way.
  20. OptimiscallyAnxious
    I've been waitlisted at 2 programs (I really doubt I'll get in from waitlist). I'm already planning out for next application cycle. Good luck!
  21. OptimiscallyAnxious
    This wait I'm really hoping we hear back this week and the sooner the better.
  22. OptimiscallyAnxious
    Congratulations on your acceptance!
  23. OptimiscallyAnxious
    Thank you kindly. My application still says "under review" as well... but I expect those accepted should be receiving a phone call sometime this week. Hopefully, you're among those receiving a call. Best of luck!
  24. OptimiscallyAnxious
    Just received a notification from UCI's Psych & Social Behavior program. I've been waitlisted this was my top choice. Congratulations to those fortunate enough to be admitted.
