No, same thing. I quoted from the ApplyTexas site, but UT EID thing says "forwarded to the Graduate Committee for review." Edit: On another note, you cannot imagine the number of times I've checked to make sure they have my correct e-mail address. Or maybe you can....

That's got to include a fellowship. Congrats to those accepted. Anyone want to claim them? I'm curious if the two who were accepted have seen a change on the website. Mine still says "forwarded to receiving institution."

Or group chocolate binge. Someone should warn first-time grad school applicants about the dangers of the process: weight gain, alcoholism, insomnia, situational OCD, manic mood swings, etc.

My first was a rejection as well. Brown was a long shot; I just hope the rest don't follow suit. -
I'm waiting too. It'll be good to hear...

Tufts English
gradgirlwannabe replied to ZeeMore21's topic in Literature, and Rhetoric and Composition
I applied to Tufts, but haven't heard a peep since early January. -
I'm pretty sure they already notified acceptances for the English program. I saw 5 or 6 posts a while ago, and they only have seven slots. I think our only hope now is for the wait-list.

I hope they notify EVERYONE tomorrow. If I'm rejected, I'd like to know that at the same time as others are receiving news!

Updating Applications After Submittal
gradgirlwannabe replied to Roccoriel's topic in Waiting it Out
I included a cover letter that explained what the documents were and that I'd like them to replace others. I don't know if replacing docs is standard procedure or if it reflects negatively on the application at all. In your case, I wouldn't think so. -
Updating Applications After Submittal
gradgirlwannabe replied to Roccoriel's topic in Waiting it Out
I sent replacement documents to one of my prospective schools about a month after the application deadline, but at that point, the adcom hadn't begun to review applications. I guess it depends on how far into the process they are. -

Carnegie Mellon
gradgirlwannabe replied to the giaour's topic in Literature, and Rhetoric and Composition
Are you surmising about this? I didn't see many posts. I'm hoping that if we haven't heard, we're either accepted, wait-listed, or receiving offers to their MA program. -
I had this issue as well. I emailed a pdf of the unofficial score report to expedite the process, and I had ETS send another copy.

asked to verify in-state residency
gradgirlwannabe replied to tortola23's topic in Literature, and Rhetoric and Composition
Tortola, did you apply to MA programs the first time, or only PhD? I'm assuming you applied to both this year? -

I just saw one new rejection posted, but it says they were notified on the 10th, the same day as the others. It's been nearly a week, though! I wonder when we'll see/hear more. CMU is the only one of my schools that seems to have notified any of its applicants. -
