What'sMyName

That's my problem. I keep trying to not over-talk it. For one, I would hate to talk endlessly and then get rejected and have to tell everyone. And two, I like being able to be distracted by my SO and family. What I'm finding I like the most is that I can gauge where everything is, and that helps me relax. Knowing that others haven't heard from certain programs keeps me from pulling out my own hair with frustration. Glad to have found others who also need to talk about it!

I don't think I have heard anyone mention the University of North Dakota anywhere, but in case anyone has applied there (it is one of my backups) I have heard that they are beginning to make decisions. Which leads me to believe that they will be getting in touch within a week or two. I know it's not a great program in terms of rank, but the research they have going on there is great and I would be excited to hear from them just to know I may have more options. Still crossing my fingers for good news from KU and to be invited to Portland's Visitor's Day though... Anyone else having a hard time relaxing right about now? I'm seriously surprised at how well hearing news, any news, has been keeping me grounded throughout this process.

Oh no! So sorry to hear. Makes me wonder how many they are sending out tonight. Are these just generic automated messages?

I just PMed you!

Did anyone else notice that a rejection has been posted in the results for KU? Or was that one of you that posted it? Ugh, sounds like they really are getting started! Stated 82 applicants, 3-4 spots. Anyone else feeling anxious?

I PMed you who I interviewed with.

Also, since I'm new here, I thought I would post what I've heard from which programs: Rutgers (New Brunswick) - Had a phone interview on the 6th (it went poorly) and I assume I have been wait listed as I haven't heard anything else. I'm pretty positive on-campus interview invitations have already been sent. Penn State - POI told me I am wait listed. UMich - Haven't heard a peep, but since rejections are going out I'm assuming I am wait listed. Portland State University - Had a Skype interview this morning that I was very happy with! They will be giving invitations to the Visitor's Day in about 2 weeks. University of Iowa - Nothing University of North Dakota - Nothing University of Kansas - emailed graduate officer late last week and she said she hasn't heard anything (as I had mentioned, but in case anyone missed it) Stony Brook - Nothing I'm hoping that good news will be abundant this week for all of us!

In regards to KU: I emailed the graduate officer at KU late last week (as she is listed for asking application questions) and she informed me that she hadn't heard any news about them deciding on applicants. Hope this helps put some of us at ease. I'm also ASSUMING they will get together soon and start getting in touch this week or next. But only because SPSP is over.
