A little late to post this, but I'm excited to say I am a semifinalist for beginner Korean. I suppose just a couple of weeks until we hear back?

From what I have gleaned in past thread and the facebook group, final notifications come out the first week of March. Could be the last few days of February, though!

@worrypower Nice to meet you! Best of luck to the both of us.  

I come from the land of Political Science and Policy, hoping to tackle the wicked problems of the internet with my government hat on.

alright y'all, my challenge is to not obsessively check the inbox today. thirty times per hour should be pretty reasonable. thoughts?

Looks like at least five based on the results page (I assume those include all of us). I would imagine that it'll depend on who moves on the shortlist--I know a lot of programs try to admit certain numbers of ethnic studies/gender studies/other areas of interest to keep their cohorts balanced and spread out faculty demand, so if they drop a gender studies person probably another gender studies person will get pulled from the pool, etc. Could be wrong, but I'd be surprised if the waitlist is just top-to-bottom ranked. 

FYI if there's any of us waiting on UNC, one of my friends called them for an update and they were told decisions weren't coming out until late March. Seems awfully late, but ok...?

What's the usual Canadian timeline, @jmc117? Do you expect to hear in February, or more like March?
Today I got my first funding offer! Rutgers offered me $25k/yr plus tuition, fees, and medical for four years, with no teaching requirement in the first year. I am over the moon! This also takes a bit of the sting out of the presumed rejection at Drexel, heh.
To those still waiting to hear back: stay strong! Good things are coming your way!

Just got an email, wait-listed at Texas; they've shrunk their cohorts to 3-5 students, according to the email, so. Anyone have better luck?

Congrats! Just got the wait list email too! Not surprised, pretty stretch fit for me. 

Waitlisted at Vanderbilt, and I'm really excited! Anyone else here in the same boat?

@theinforat I found out through an email, also around 2pm CST today as @Sav. Congrats to y'all on the acceptances!

Turns out I'm waitlisted at Vanderbilt. Pretty stoked for this news. Anyone else here heard back from them?

I am a Vanderbilt acceptance! So excited!!! Was really hoping to work with a certain professor there. 
Fingers crossed for those of you still waiting to hear!
