Hi everyone,
I have been lurking on this topic for awhile and decided to post. I only applied to two programs for communication. I applied to MA/PhD as I am straight out of undergrad as well.
UCSB- Invited to attend their Open House Feb 23-25th.
Ohio State University- accepted in to MA program.
I applied to two other programs in psychology and one (UIC) of them I am sure I will be rejected. I spoke with a POI and she informed me after we Skyped I would either get an invite to their interview weekend or likely should not expect anything else from UIC. I guess I'm thankful for the POI's honesty? Now it's just waiting until I get some sort of rejection notification. The communication programs I applied to took much longer to send out notifications than other programs I applied to. Hopefully everyone starts hearing back soon
