  1. I totally totally get that, and it definitely is presumptuous. I think the supportive message more geared toward those having obvious panic attacks hahaha. Either way considering I haven't gotten any acceptances yet, I can empathize with the feelings of condescension and convenience.
  2. I'm sorry to hear that, its really cruel they'd make you interview and still reject you. I'd hope that they'd treat their applicants better, considering how much is on the line for them. I totally feel that. While I don't have any acceptances yet, I think its the best way to be considerate of all other applicants on this forum. I think its better than gloating about acceptances and not acknowledging the fact that so many people who didn't receive those had just as much stake in it.
  3. I just want to get an idea, those of you who were accepted to CUNY -- how likely are you to accept?
  4. CUNY just sent me an email and put me on the waitlist. They also invited me to the open house next week, which I will be attending. I have a full-time job and two open houses next week (Boston & NYC) so trying to make this work will be hard. Either way, kind of disappointed but better than a rejection! If any admits know they're not going, please let them know because CUNY is my dream school Congrats on all the acceptances guys and keep your head up. Regardless of what happens we'll all emerge from this hell stronger, and we'll be exactly where were supposed to be. Much love
  5. Hey thanks for the response, hate how ambiguous they are. Regardless I hope you hear some good news, I know CUNY has a hard time getting decent funding.
  6. Happy Monday all, congratulations to everyone who heard news!!!! Nothing on my end. For those who heard from the CUNY Graduate Center, do you have any news of the open house thats coming up? I thought I had a great chance to get in, including working as an RA for a big faculty member for about a year and taking classes there, but I haven't heard anything. The faculty member called me today checking up on me, but I had no news to report. He said they must still be deliberating.
  7. I'm actually not sure -- they didn't mention interviews at all and framed it as 'giving us a chance to make a better informed decision once admittances are released', but I have a feeling informal interviews will be happening a lot.
  8. To the person who interviewed with CUNY, who did you meet with? Did they give you any idea of cohort size or how many acceptances went out?
  9. The interview is an open house from Feb 11th to the 13th. I was told they invited the short list of 16 candidates, and they would probably only accept 8-12. But im really not sure, its possible a lot of people wont accept and more acceptances will come out towards March. It happens. I wouldnt assume anything till you see it in writing!
  10. Jesus okay looks like escapism won't be an option this weekend. Haha thank you, and congrats on that acceptance
  11. Quick question -- has anyone heard of a decision coming out on a weekend? Maybe like an informal email from faculty? Trying to anticipate my mindset this weekend haha
  12. I got a phone call from an unknown number today, and thinking it was a school I almost freaked out. Turns out it was my student loan officer reminding me I was past due, to which I vaguely tried to explain I was trying to get into a Ph.D program so I could defer the loan. also thank you <3 you are absolutely right and its important to constantly remind yourself of this fact, considering we all put so much stake and meaning into these apps.
  13. Ouch, yeah I have a feeling next week is going to be very tumultuous. You might want to ask the Psychology subforum! This is for Sociology.
  14. Fridays are so bittersweet now. Yeah its the end of the week but now I know if I don't hear anything today I have to wait the whole weekend for any application news.
  15. Keep in mind guys that a lot of schools wait to hand out some acceptances towards March! They do this in case there aren't enough confirmations and people don't come. It ain't over till its over!
  16. I probably should have PMd mine as well instead of posting it lmao.
  17. Hey! Honestly I think calling is more of a self-soothing gesture haha. And I wouldnt worry about coming off too desperate Im sure they get a million calls a day from applicants.
  18. I'd totally be down for that, weekend would be best! My skype is live:kevinjunha. Oh man come on guys its the first day of February don't resign yourselves yet!!!!
