Well, since someone posted today that they emailed for a status update and got a rejection, I'm thinking outlook not good. It still doesn't explain the sporadic acceptances; but, then again, we don't really have an adequate sample size here. Maybe I'll email for an update myself. Mehhh. So much for working with the person whose work was fundamental to my undergraduate thesis...

Yes, I'm waiting on Harvard and a few others, but Chicago is my top choice. I was way bummed to not get an acceptance email last week; I'm about 90% certain this means rejection. The only reason I have a shred of hope is that I'm a joint program applicant and I know the medical adcom hasn't met for us yet, so I'm praying that anthro is holding off until they hear from them or something. But that's unlikely. I wish they would just send the rejection letters at the same time so I wouldn't have to live in this limbo!

Those of you accepted at UChicago (Weber and devindavenport, I'm looking at you), do you know if they are done issuing acceptance letters? My feeling is that they probably are based on a conversation I had with Dr. Farquhar, but I'm holding out hope for some kind of hold category or waitlist spot.
