[Social Psychology Application Thread 2010-2011]

After this long period of waiting - i finally got TWO admission offers.

Purdue University and University of Rochester. I am so happy that I have these incredible choices...

But, I don't know how to choose.

Do you have any advice for me?

Tnx guys!!!!

[U of Minnesota]

yes. it's me again - still waiting for answers from Minnesota.

I wrote them on March 1st and asked when they'll have decisions - and they answered that they will release announcements in a couple weeks...

I am still waiting - and April is almost here.

what's up with that????

:S

[Social Psychology Application Thread 2010-2011]

just an urge to say that I CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER!!!!

PLEASE - dear universities, give me something to hold on to!

just sayin'...

wow! I never imagined this process could be so stressful!

[U of Minnesota]

Thanks! Can I ask who's your POI?

Hey there,

Sorry I didn't post on the results page, but I got accepted to the social program about a month ago. If you haven't heard anything bad yet though, there still seems to be reason to keep hope alive.

Good luck.

Hi guys - once again!

I noticed that some people got response from Buffalo via post-mail.

Maybe someone knows if the decisions were available on website as well?

Thanks!!!

[U of Minnesota]

Thanks for the info!

I hope that I'll have some updates soon.

I have heard from them (acceptance, hurray!). But I'm in the Quant program, which is much smaller so it makes sense that they'd be quicker.

Good luck, let me know if you go in and decide to go there!

[U of Minnesota]

Did you here something from them???

I applied for social psych and couldn't find any post in the results page.

Thanks!

Thanks! I really hope so... going crazy over here...

Rochester's interview weekend was a few weeks ago, and decisions should be going out sometime next week

[Social Psychology Application Thread 2010-2011]

Does anyone have any kind of information about the social psych department at U of Minnesota? and / or SUNY at Buffalo? Rochester maybe?

I really want to hear something - because I didn't get any solid response from any of the departments which I applied for....

Thank you guys

Hi,

all this process is nerve racking!

I asked for a young faculty member as my primary POI, but insiders told me that it could be risky, so I wrote more than one POI in my application.

And yet - no response from them!

this is my top choice - but I guess that we can't do it right with these numbers.

almost no chances at all...

To add on with anecdotal evidence, I know that Heilman invited three applicants to interview, and accepted none of them last year. A highly disproportionate number of applicants had come for the newest faculty member at the time (Jay Van Bevel).

Hey guys,

I decided to contribute from the information that I got so far... I don't have much, but here it is:

in NYU 250 applicants for 4 admissions

in Purdue - only 3 admissions (I don't know the number of applicants)

if you have any information for the status in these universities - or in Yale, CUNY at Buffalo, Minnesota, Rochester - Please let me know...

THANKS!

Thank you for your response!

I checked the exact programs that I'm interested in, and found results from each of them...

I think that I'll start eating my nails until I'll get some news!!!!

Hi! Welcome to the forum! It is a pleasure to greet someone from Israel!

Check the Results page: are there reported acceptances/ rejections from your programmes at your schools? (check the date carefully: this year?) Most humanities and arts programmes have not started reporting any decisions yet. I am not sure about Psychology.

Even if there are any reports from your programmes, it does not necessarily mean you are out. Sometimes, there is a significant time gap between acceptances to the same programme.

[International Students Acceptance]

Thanks! I really hope so

It will be very helpful to hear the same announcement from someone who tries to apply to social psych as well...

Hey!

So I'm an American student who's heard back officially from one institution. They told me that they hadn't even looked at international students' applications and that the graduate school just sent them the US students first. So don't worry! If this school is like the others, the American students probably are hearing back before the international students.

I hope this helps.

Hi everyone,

I just discovered this website and realized that a lot of you already got some response from the universities.

I am really anxious - and I am the only one from my friends who tries to apply to the US so I didn't has any information for what is going on with others.

SO - I have one question only:

Do you think that this is normal that you all got responses and for me NOTHING? Could it be that international students get the information later?

I read in the "results" page that people get invitations for interviews at February - but there is no chance that I could leave Israel so soon.

Thanks!
