rejected from CUNY buhhhhhh

I'm so tired of this

Oh snap on the UCI interview--good work, and thanks for letting us know.

i think the results board is thegradcafe.com/survey

well what's funny is I applied in 2020 for f21 unsuccessfully and my transcript is the exact same since then and the website was like "yea just keep that one" and put a check next to it but I guess they needed me to upload it separately so tbc it's a little different from asking me for an upgrade to an offish transcript still kinda optimistic though. kinda.

irvine asked for a reupload of my transcript and whereas that's a big enough part of a grad school app that I can't at all guarantee anything man it feels like it'd be H E L L J A I L not to get accepted thereafter lol. fingers crossed I guess

that new CUNY acceptance uhfff my brain and heart. shut out again...?

I applied and haven't heard back, for what it's worth (English PhD). But I also applied last year, didn't get in, and didn't really substantively change my app. :X

anyone hear anything from Yale FMS?

Hahah exactly. Would be so happy to about-face on this very point. Please give me the chance to abandon wholly my previous stance, ye grad schools. I would lunge at the chance to end up as TheGradCafe.com’s most infamous hypocrite

Process is utterly cruel. Clearly in violation of multiple protocols established by the Geneva Conventions Hhggggghhhh plzzzzzzz

@Bopie5dying out here with this Yale stuff. Guess it makes some sort of sense, but I didn't think the combined program would take significantly longer than English itself...Film and Media Studies dept. come through!!! feel like I can't even enjoy the results page spicing up again after a lull in insults slung

Click it and it’s a way to view the poster’s self reported GPA and GRE scores

results page update: sort of taking a recursive, postmodern turn. very beautiful to witness. actual quote: "TTPB "I'm the same person as 20 messages ago':"

Probably a good guess, though you have to consider the possibility that we are about to receive an after-hours delivery via pigeon of a sonnet admitting us to the school and extolling our virtues!!! at least imho

I almost forgot that I applied to both english and film and media studies. Guess I'll have to wait for a little while longer. fooey. sorry to all those who got rejected, the whole Three Students thing threw a big wrench

Mine did not. Keep refreshing to make sure. Still there. Got a feeling we're turning a corner in some way or another but who effing knows. Jesus what an emotional rollercoaster

should have heeded the ol' "expect the worst" adage in all facets of this process but man the fact that I'm still waiting got me like *hannibal burress [laughs, "this sucks man"]* all over the place. hopefully soon...

I've only heard back from one school, Berkeley, and it was a rejection. Hang in there!

Results page starting to get a little spicy you love to see it

Yale English acceptance on the results page ahhhh jeez Louise congrats anonymous GradCafe user must be feeling like a legend

Just saw that myself. Jeez Louise.

I, too, figured it wouldn’t be the difference between an acceptance and a rejection (lol, imagine that)—but I was really hoping that she was highballing me and that “this week” would be the one...

Yeah, to the English dept. Perhaps inadvisable; was certainly nervous; lady seemed really nice tho

I applied to English and film and media studies at Yale (my dream program) and haven’t heard anything, prob not a great sign not to have gotten an interview but whatever. Yale English itself said this (hrmmm)/next week and feb 15 at latest. Whoosh
