2011fall

nope. and i already decided to attend another program now. not waiting any more. good luck!

I got accepted. Though i am still waiting for the last school to give the result, but i gues mostly i will be attending UMD.

i got the rejection email today. and i feel good and released. good luck!!

shake hands!

same here. i just need a closure.

any one heard back from Wagner? and i also not yet heard back from Chicago either....does that mean that i am out? thanks

yo! and am for PhD program....

i have a friend who took the loan to pay for his graduate school (top private program). and he has been complaining the loan system, how bad the loan is, how bad government is.....while just intentionally ignoring the fact that it was HIM made the decision to take the loan for graduate school. so what i want to say is, if you are totally fine with the loan, maybe go ahead, Chicago is apparently a great place. If you are purely talking about the financial rate of return (no one can guarantee you a 80K job right after your graduate school, and no one know how quick you could have your salary increased to 100K, and am not sure about your life-style either. Therefore it might take 5 years or 10 years to pay off the loan?). EVENTUALLY. Eventually, you will be able to pay off the loan. Just your choice to live shouldering the loan shadow or still live happily with 60K to 80K loan without knowing when you could pay it off. I, personally, am not comfortable of taking so much loan, though i am confident that i will get a good job after graduate. (i actually did get a good job after graduation from one top private school) sorry that i do not want to sound hush. I got very annoyed by the guy who took loan and being unhappy person and affected EVERYONE around him. -- just because he choose to take the loan HIMSELF. But Chicago is great place for study. Good luck!!

WHAT ARE THEY DOING!!!!!!

you are SMART!

nothing in my inbox now...... oh, well...actually three facebook notification.... anyway, no email from Harris yet. Mine last name starts with 'T'. is mine coming soon??? hahh

still no news yet...it is 3:40 pm Chicago time. i could not sleep well last night (it is 7:10 am my time now) and have to go for a 7 hours' TA+office hour soon. Hope i will be able to concentrate in class and knowing what i am talking about to the students, rather than thinking of if there is any emails come in.

any one know how many PhD candidate Maryland accept each year?? tahnks

they have been so quiet and no news from them at all....any one??

i just wanted to say....poor Harris....made that promise but unfortunately not able to make it. But who wants to be blamed for or be cursed? i guess they are really short of people now..... i am not finding excuses for them, i am also waiting...but think about it: do you have any other school that also not yet given out results and say NO word on when they will do it?? I have one school in hand like that. anyway, i hope you would be able to make the second promise and wish them good luck. for us, another 2 or 3 days to wait. ( tell me about it that i have been so nervous these days....). Wait, but nothing else. mmm...i also believed that they sent offer to top-tier candidates early March like what is said on the result page. That is why they are holding the waiting-list/rejection list, in case they could hear back from those if they denied the offer and Harris can reassign it to any of us here?? so all of us have hope....
