I haven't logged in to SYSPLUS since I submitted but are people still able to see statuses/how do you access it? I just get a page that says "Session for this year is not available yet". But if I log into the account I used for last year I can see my results on that just fine. So I wasn't sure if this message was something you all are getting too or not edit: this was a dumb mistake and i was just checking an old account i had made

jk I tried it on my phone and it worked for some reason so idk what the issue was - thanks for the link!

I haven't really been keeping up with GradCafe and just found this thread because I was wondering if people had heard back from NDSEG (which obviously hasn't happened). Where are people able to see the info about when their application was updated? I just logged on yesterday April 9 for the first time since I submitted and I can't do or see anything on the system. There are all these links to all the different parts of my app but nothing happens when I click them. Just was wondering if this is normal and everyone was seeing the sus updates before April 9

If anyone is interested, I ended up just being generic and saying I will be going to graduate school elsewhere. A good phrase I used is "no longer will be pursuing graduate opportunities at X university." Took me 5 hours to come up with that phrase

I got accepted to two of my top choice programs and am over the moon about it. I honestly don't know I will pick between the two and decided not to think that much about it until I visited both schools (I have been to neither before) and see how I feel then. However, the two visit weekends conflicted. I was able to get one of the schools to reschedule me to visit april 3-5 with other students. I am glad I have the opportunity to visit both schools, but now I am soo worried that I will only have ten days to make a decision. Also, more than a month will pass between when I visit both schools so I am nervous about forgetting things/not making accurate comparisons idk. Does anyone have advice on making a decision on a limited time frame??? I am so nervous about picking wrong

I had a skype interview a couple weeks ago with a professor at one of the schools I applied to that I thought went pretty well. Later, by some random miracle I got accepted into 3 other schools that are my top choices and I am now deciding between. I wasn't sure whether I was still in the running for this earlier school I had a skype interview with (due to me drawing incorrect conclusions from stalking this website ) but I just got invited to interview there. I am not going to go to this interview because it'd be a waste of their money and time on me since I have other offers and will not consider this school anymore. I plan on sending a generic email to the admin assistant declining the invitation to visit and asking them to remove me from consideration. My question is what should I email the professor I interviewed with? Most recs for personal declining emails to professors say to just be straight about the program I am choosing. But I haven't picked where I'm going yet and won't know until my last visit in April. Would it be cocky if I say I am considering two other schools instead and name them? I don't want to insult this current school or professor. But also the professor got his PhD at one of the schools I'm considering. I just had a very honest/direct conversation with the professor during my interview and think he deserves the courtesy of my transparency, I just don't want to accidentally offend or come off pompous.
