I think we might still have hope!! But I am also ready to face the rejection from the wonderful La Jolla.... (Hug)(Hug)(Hug)

Thank you so much for your information!! Yes, I also received several rejs this week (I was also in the red waves posted this week lol)...as an international student, I am afraid my GRE and TOEFL hurt my applications severely (Especially, I think a decent TOEFL score should be what the public schools, such as UCs, want to see ?) Hope all of us can find a good position and start our new lives in graduate schools!!

Sorry for cutting off the discussion but I have several issues to ask (or discuss) here, and I hope who are still in the "result-waiting" process but not the "result-picking" process can discuss with me about the following questions regarding three schools that I am really like but still keeping silent to me: 1 ) I've seen a UC San Diego rejection on the board, but I still haven't heard anything from them (so I might assume that I am rejected by them). Could anyone please claim the rejection (or share some information about this school) and indicate how would they inform us about the decisions? 2 ) (haha I am a super fan of UVA lmao) I assume UVA conducts interviews every year, but I still haven't got any feedback from them (but now the end of the Feb is coming...!!!). Have anyone heard from them? If yes, could you please inform us via the result board or via this thread? It would also be great to let me know I've already been rejected by them in advance in this way. Or, if none of us have heard from UVA until now, I think I will write to them soon to know a bit more about their progress. I know I may get a rejection signal in advance but I am ready to face it! 3 ) If anyone has any ideas about UC Davis's status and "decision-informing" styles (e.g. normally when will they release rejections, how do they deal with waitlists), could you please share that with me? PS: Congratulations to all the applicants who have got their dream schools' offers. I really hope I can also have such life experience several weeks later! Edit: I forgot to thank you all in advance!! Sorry!!

I always want to do so but actually I dare not to reach out to my POIs based on the information collected on this website, but I can't help but reading this website again and again although I might not really trust all the users... I always think about several stupid questions like...Do my POIs know about Gradcafe? If I am trolled by some posts and then write to them to ask about my application result, will they consider me ''a stupid student who cannot carefully tell out rumors and real news''? I feel extremely upset...I know maybe I shouldn't concern so much, and my POIs should definitely understand my situation. But I am...alas...sigh... Plus: my only relief these days is a forum called 'sociology job market rumor'. I guess I might become like the users in that forum 5 or 6 yrs later. It's extremely interesting to browse the Gradcafe and the SJMR simultaneously. LMAO

Waiting for UVa Devastatingly too……alas. How do they carry out their interviews? Does anybody know more or less about that?

FYI: I've just received a waitlist from UOregon. It seems that the result submission page went wrong on my browser, so I cannot submit it on the result page right now, but I will try it later. If anyone received their offer but no longer want to go to their program, could you please let them know ASAP? Thank you so much! ?

It's really good to know about that! thx! You too! Good luck! I guess many schools may give feedbacks the next week... ??? Super super anxious.

Did anyone hear from UVA? According to the posts of the last year, they should start the interview processes at the end of January. One of the top choices of mine...sigh...
