While I still have hope but no correspondence yet, I'll do my job/school research for next year. Any rejections will probably destroy my motivation so might as well do it now.

My Star Fox 64 high score. My Neopets' names. My experience as head of the Holy Empire of Shadora (http://www.nationstates.net/). My Spelling Bee championships. A portfolio including my Beanie Baby and Polly Pocket collections. My Myers-Briggs type (INTJ). My Mario Kart ghost data. DAMN.

Yay. I like your story. After failing to get my MRS degree in undergrad, I'm trying to find a husband who does some sort of lucrative thing so I don't feel so bad about my LAVISH MUSICOLOGY LIFESTYLE....

Rejection Letter

Why did I apply to only dream schools?
-
Actually now that I think about it, when I was applying for undergrad, I had a dream about Stanford...and I didn't even apply. It wasn't even on my radar...

Congrats on McGill! I haven't heard anything from anybody, although I didn't apply to any of your schools. It's driving me crazy. What's your specialty?

I've gone from wanting admission then just wanting an interview then just wanting the waitlist to just wanting some sort of correspondence.

Sweet, congrats!

Well, I mean it's super broad. It can encompass music history, ethnomusicology, music theory, music cognition, etc. Depends on what you want to do with it.

Your guess is as good as mine, hahaha. "The study of music"...

Musicology, specifically music in pop culture. Your plan sounds good. Kinda wish I had a good idea of what a musicologist can do to beef up her portfolio. Maybe I'll compose some video game music (one of my main interests). Good luck to you!

Hey musicologists/composers/theorists: If you get rejected across-the-board (as I'm expecting), what is your Plan B? Also, what would be an optimal plan B for someone who may try again next year? Right now I'm doing a job that has nothing to do with music, and I'm not really sure what I can do this year in the meantime to make my applications more competitive for next year, other than conference presentations. I think I might try to learn a language.

Thanks! I guess my anxiety won't be all that diminished this weekend, then. haha

I need to temper my craziness. Do schools ever send out admissions notifications (emails or phone calls) on weekends and/or in the hours between 5pm and 9am (in the school's time zone)?
