  1. I heard back last week with a 'yes'! Have you heard anything since you posted this? And if you get funding, are you planning on going??
  2. I'm also waiting--nothing so far. I haven't emailed/called anyone and am a little puzzled as to what's up. People were posting on the results page that they got rejected via standard mass email, but we were apparently excluded from that. Hm... Anyone else know anything?
  3. Great recommendations, especially Wacquant! What, if you don't mind me asking, are you interested in focusing on for your grad work?
  4. I'm such a groupie/nerd, but every time I hear about people's work being complemented by sociological 'superstars' like Wuthnow I am jealous. Even if you don't get in, Robert Wuthnow thought your work was interesting! Good luck with the waiting list!
  5. Yikes, two in the same day is rough. Have you heard any acceptances? I was rejected rather unsurprisingly by Yale yesterday.
  6. So is it safe to say that having not heard anything from NYU=rejection?
  7. Sounds like bad news for those who haven't heard....
  8. Congrats on your great profile and acceptances to such great schools!
  9. I mean, perhaps you were owed something. It seems ridiculous to think that you got all of those accolades without working your ass of for them... Either way it sucks. Do you have the option of staying in your current program to do a PhD?

    Rutgers

    Thanks. There are only two results posted on the results board this year (both for interviews, and one who said they withdrew their app), and looking at last year, they did a lot of admits at the beginning of March, so I'm not panicking... yet.
  11. NYU is also one of my top choices, so I'm hoping that the effort I made to contact a professor wasn't in vain. Although now that I think about it, his response was quite hands-off, as he basically said "we'll talk once you're admitted." Hm...

    I applied as well, but haven't heard anything. I hope that doesn't mean that I'm out... Do you know if they are interviewing everyone?? And how did your interview go? Yikes... I can't take all of this anxiety...
  13. I have just felt the sour sting of rejection from UC Santa Cruz. Although not my top choice, it was in the middle of my rankings. I talked to a prof before I applied who said that being an out-of-state student might hurt me because we cost them more to fund, so perhaps that played into it. It kind of sucks either way though.Off to the beer....

    Acceptances

    I just started posting recently too--it's nice to finally feel connected to others in the same position I am. Congrats on your acceptances! What are your interests, as those are all great, diverse programs?
  15. There's a big blogging sociology contingent that I've just stumbled upon recently. Some of my favorites are: Orgtheory (orgtheory.wordpress.com) A (Budding) Sociologist's Commonplace Book (asociologist.wordpress.com) Scatterplot (scatter.wordpress.com) They all have a bunch of links on their pages to other soc blogs as well. My girlfriend and I have also just started a blog (sometimes) related to sociology. Check us out if you so desire. (socialscientistsinakitchen.wordpress.com)
