    Thank you Abenz! I called today (i couldn't help it) and told the admissions coordinator who we know each other on a first name basis at this point that I saw someone post on a forum that I follow about their acceptance and was feeling discouraged and was seeing if there are any updates on my app. She said no, just that it was complete, and try not to worry because just because they are accepted doesn't mean they will actually agree to attend Temple (what?!-not sure how to take that). She said she has my fingers crossed for me. I was almost crying on the phone bc of my horrible day at work and that was why I called, I must get into this program!! Thank you for your always being so positive and helpful, I appreciate you more then you know!!!

    Hope everyone is doing great! I haven't heard a thing from any school!! I have been waiting on Temple University (my undergrad school!) for their Sociology program. I called Friday and left a message w/ the Admissions Coordinator (why do I feel like we are BFF's at this point?!) but haven't heard anything. She told me last time we talked she would email me right away when she hears anything (I won't hold it to her, she is extremely busy). I just saw my first Temple Sociology acceptance on the results page dated 1/23. First one that has been listed. Has anyone else heard from Temple for the Sociology PHD and just not added it to the results page? My heart broke a little. This waiting game is taking a toll. I don't want to be annoying to them but I am freaking out!!

    Thank you MintChocoChip! Is it crazy that I may not even go to the PCOM interview since they do not fund at all? I've had my parents pay for my undergrad and masters, I cannot put this on them. I need somewhere that offers assistance. Since I am in FL, my main goal is to go back up north (FL is not so great. At all). Trying to stay positive. Good luck to you and I can't wait to hear your status. I am definitely going to be messaging you!

    Thank you so much Pino! I pray everything does happen for a reason, it would make life a lot less stressful. I have 3 more waiting (I was going to apply to Vanderbilt too-good luck!!!!). I don't have a good feeling for myself, and all of the deadlines are pretty much up (I've been looking). Thank you so much for your kind words and I will probably be messaging you very soon.

    And it is a shame you cannot look up your application online for them! I had to email and make sure my application was complete. Let's keep each other updated and IF we both get accepted we can get together somewhere in beautiful Boston

    Thank you Pastel Calico (I love Calicos-I have one myself)! My heart breaks at this point knowing most of the application deadlines are up. I applied to a Masters program today. Thank you for your beautiful words and please keep my updated on your journey!

    Hi! So today I received my first two rejections, one from Temple University where I went to for undergrad (that was in Clinical Psych-I know I am in the Sociology forum so bear with me) and Rutgers University. My first choice is Temple University's Sociology PHD program. Has anyone else applied? I was told they are still reviewing applications. I am also waiting on Boston University for their decision on my Sociology PHD application. They said since the deadline just ended it is going to have 4-6 weeks for them to take a decision. I did receive an interview at PCOM, Philadelphia School of Ostrepedic Medicine but they do not fund. My heart was crushed today with these two rejections and I had to call for both! I wasn't contacted. I was actually crying at work (hiding it well though). I have a masters degree in School Counseling with a 3.89 GPA and have been working as a School Counselor in Florida for 2 years. Low GRE scores but I am not a good test taker. It seems childish but I can't help wondering why no-one wants me. Am I just not made for this? I cannot be stuck as a School Counselor forever, I absolutely hate it. I am now looking at masters programs that are fully funded, even though it would be my second masters. Is anyone else just feeling extremely discouraged? Feel free to message me if you are in a similar boat or haven't heard from anyone either! We need to stick together
