I've seen several acceptance claims of people who saw it on the portal first, then got the email the next day.

Sure. This is the one I was talking about. Not sure it's called survey page - that's just what the url is. https://www.thegradcafe.com/survey/?program=Political+Science

that sure would be a fun story to tell your kids. "back in 2022, when we were still using emails instead of the communications implant, I even gave one school the wrong email and that kids is why I never got my PhD...."

I compared that database with the 'survey' page on gradcafe and they have different data sets. Martin might have used previous years' application threads instead of the 'survey' page that I checked. I wouldn't expect any kind of accuracy from any of those sources because not everyone is stupid enough to check gradcafe multiple times a day - but it gives a good indication I think.

Exactly. There should just be a deadline and all schools send out emails on that day at noon.

Yeah - I went through all the pages of last years admission status updates and especially for UGA, there have been admissions claimed over a span of almost 2 months. - unlike Emory for example who seem to be spamming hundreds of emails in one day and are done with it.

Would be so nice if there would be like one day when all schools have to have their emails ready and then send them out the next day at noon or something. This whole process shortens the lifespan of the average academic quite significantly.

Yes - rejected though.

I've seen a couple of acceptances from University of Georgia on the results page- has anyone gotten waitlisted or rejected yet?

You hit the 'Quote' text right in the message you'd like to respond to.

Yes. Rejection via email.

+1 ?

Anyone of you claiming the University of Georgia acceptance? That is kinda one of my favs and there was no emailing happening today.

I found it! You're awesome! Thanks. I owe you a beer (or whatever you prefer...) Back on topic please. I'm actively waiting for emails from UTAustin and Emory.

I think it might actually be your advanced status. I don't have any signature settings in there. Weird.

Off topic: How do you add your schools to the signature? Can't find that option anywhere. Is that only for advanced users maybe?

Fair enough. If you don't mind me asking - What made you decide to take the accelerated Masters over the PhD in Georgia?

Thank you very much for the info. That worries me a bit now since mid-January is kinda over by now and I haven't gotten a call from Georgia. Might be because I'm in Germany and they can't call abroad? Or they are just later this year... ASU and FSU sound like I still have some patience to gather. Thank you!

According to the app, they posted them on the Monday or Thuesday of the last week of the month (in the last 2 years). Should be next week then.

Worry is misuse of imagination. You're so right. But it's not super easy to stay all calm and productive when you're waiting for a decision that changes your life for (at least) the next 5 years significantly.

YES! Thanks for your reply! I have all the questions. Do you remember the dates when they sent out acceptance emails last year? Did they send them at all or did you login to the websites daily to check there? Did they ask for interviews or just accept you without any more talk?

Guys - has anyone of you one of the following in their list and heard anything back yet? ASU; UT Austin; UT Dallas; UNT; UI Bloomington; UG Athens; Emory; USF Tampa; FSU Tallahassee Still nothing here - but I'm not even sure I have all the right portals to look at. Just discovered that Dallas has a different website where they show the results from where you actually apply.

Congrats! Guess for this process you need several small champaign bottles in the fridge to enjoy every step of it. ?
