Currently deciding between UMD and OSU! I know that "silence is not a no" but for my mental sake i am assuming a rejection/waitlist from schools that haven't responded (UW/Pitt/Northeastern). Either way - I am going somewhere!! How is everything for you! My fingers have been crossed for you getting off waitlist on UW!

Its the same with Pitt right now. I think Columbia just started sending theirs out. Honestly, I am assuming that because this is technically the COVID year (undergrads graduating 2024 started college in 2020), there is an influx of apps as compared to previous years. I might be just dead wrong, but it has helped my anxiety at least, lol
-
I mean you can and might be able to the grad program itself just to ask timeline of decisionmaking in order to make a timely decision on your part. I wouldn't recommend emailing professors, that might not exactly be the best idea haha. I have been helping my anxiety by looking at past decision timelines and then giving myself a week or so past that because of just how many apps are in this cycle! Not sure if that helps you as well, but just remember the timeline isnt a reflection on your performance, just the sheer number of applications they have!

Good luck on the waitlist - fingers crossed for you! Haven't heard anything from them so I'll take it as a rejection ☹️

Fingers crossed for you w/ BU, and for both of us w/ UW!

Probably real, they commented that they're an undergrad there - might have had extremely strong recommenders/application otherwise (speaking from what I have generally seen with GRE scores) previous years are looking like that esp with the small accepted cohort size, might be a bit diff this year but unsure. I'm gonna take it as a rejection tbh, but who knows, maybe they'll surprise me for valentine's day! lol
-
Neither can I, but it won't stop me from doomscrolling and excessively checking my email/the portal!! haha all of my pending programs have taken longer than their averages from previous years and it's definitely because of this as well, I do appreciate the time they are taking but my goodness am I anxious!!
-
Would love to know this as well/any experiences anyone may have had! I am quite nervous 🫠
-
Thank you - fingers crossed for you as well! Stalking the portals has become so tiring, I have been getting my emails at the end of the work day in America - as late as 10pm so I can't even imagine timing in the UK 🙃 Thank you! Congratulations to you as well on Brown!!

Got to this post late but hi! I'm doing sociology for most of my schools so I applied to: UC Berkeley - no word yet Ohio State - accepted! UW - no word yet Northeastern - interview! Pitt - no word yet Very anxious about UW and Pitt, those are definitely up there in my rankings, but fingers crossed!! I have been trying SO hard to be optimistic but sometimes GC makes me get ansty, especially when looking at previous decision releases.

Haven't heard from them at ALL - their average timeline was late jan-early feb so I am rolling with anxiety right now tbh
