This is my second round of applying for doctoral programs as well! I applied to UNC Greensboro's Ph.D. in Educational Studies with a foundation in Cultural Foundations.
Good luck to everyone - looking forward to seeing how things go for all of us!
Received my official rejection from Rutgers today. I was expecting it, so not terribly upset, but still disappointing.
Still waiting to hear back from 2 schools, but not feeling great about my prospects for getting into a program this year. Best of luck to everyone else still awaiting decisions!
I was worrying about these as well - also my top programs! I checked their websites again, and Rutgers says they will try to notify candidates by early March and UW says by late March/early April.
I don't want to wait that long but it helps me feel less anxious about not hearing anything yet!
Your list is similar to mine (UW, UA, OSU, UMinn, Rutgers, UKansas, UMaryland, UBuffalo - these last 2 for American Studies). I've had rejections from UMinn, OSU, and UKansas and absolute silence from everyone else as well. It feels good to know others are going through the same feeling right now!
Best of luck as we all wait
Received a rejection from University of Kansas yesterday - 2nd rejection, no acceptances yet. Trying to remain optimistic about my prospects at this point!
