You are brave! I don't think I could do that knowing there could be a huge flood of rejections. Good luck with the rest of them! I hope you have good news.

Ditto to NoleGirl - I met with one potential advisor, and he told me news should be coming around in the next week or so. My friends with posters were approached by quite a few POIs...makes me wish I'd had a poster too!

I just found out it was a grad student who had said that, so perhaps they didn't have full information. I was told earlier in the year by a couple faculty that they hoped to get new students, or that they were not entirely sure if they would or not until later.

My friend found someone from UCSB while at SPSP and was told they are not really taking new people this year (and that they only accepted one person last year.) I thought this would be useful for anyone applying there (him and myself included)

Hello all! I decided instead of just stalking the boards and results I may as well join! I applied to UCSB, UCSC, WashU, ASU, U of AZ, Lehigh, Miami University, U of AK, and U of VT. So far, I've been contacted by aPOI at Arkansas and will be meeting with him at SPSP. I sent out an email to five other POIs inviting them to meet with me at SPSP and have heard back from one so far at ASU, informing me he's no longer doing stereotype threat research. This makes me a little sad as I was trying to convey in my application that while the majority of my research as a master's student has been stereotype threat, I'm interested more broadly in group identity and intergroup relations.
Ah well. On the bright side, I figure I will get a preview of how my admits will go by seeing what is said in response to my invitation to meet at SPSP.

I just want to say I hate waiting. I was told at SPSP that I would hear about my app in a week or two by a POI (U of Arkansas)...and then last week he said they were making decisions at the end of that week. So, it's been two weeks! Where's my acceptance? (Being optimistic!)
Patience is not a strong point of mine.
