I've been following this thread for a while, but it's my first time to share something like this. I have applied quite a few communication programs and received five rejections and four offers by now.
Rejection:
Stanford, University of Washington (iSchool), UMich, UPenn, UCSB
Acceptance:
UCLA, UCD, Wisconsin-Madison, American University
Interviewed:
UMD
Though I didn't getting into any programs that are really competitive (and I probably will be rejected by USC), I'm quite satisfied with my result. It's fun to read all your posts and I wish everyone the best of luck!
