I was doing pretty well...that owl gif made me pretty anxious though.

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look for a moderately priced 1 bed room apartment and what one might expect to pay for one this year? There seem to be a lot of complexes, but its hard to tell which are geared toward undergrads and which will be oriented toward grad / professionals.

I found this thread helpful, in terms of things that I should consider and ask about:

Which one did you apply to Ugg42? I'm still waiting to hear from the media program. It's the only one I haven't heard from yet and the results have someone with an acceptance in Jan...getting anxious!

Interesting discussion...I'm wondering now, what are everyone's thoughts on submitting to the student section of a national conference as opposed to a specific interest division? Are there any major pros and cons to picking the student section? Does whether or not the special interest division have a student paper competition play in?

I applied to the Media and Information Studies program, it is the last program I'm waiting to hear from. Did you contact the media and information studies program or the Comm program?

Which program are you waiting to hear from at MSU

Did you check your spam folder? That's where I found my notice.

I wouldn't give up hope just yet! You might still get an offer from MSU (assuming Michigan State?), or maybe you could negotiate a funding offer from SUNY. I've only seen one person note an interview/acceptance from MSU and I'm hopeful that they are still reviewing. I posted the UT Austin interview, so that was for the Org Comm and Tech track..not sure if the others are on separate schedules.

I applied to the org comm and tech track too. I thought that might be the reason we hadn't heard anything! The grad secretary (or maybe it was on the website) had mentioned that only faculty of the particular track you select will be looking at your application. I was kind of bummed, some of the faculty in the interpersonal track are a great fit too. Anyway, no reason to go crazy yet

Austin is still under review for me too, judging from last years submissions it should be changing soon though!

Does anyone have any info on MSU's Media and Information Studies program? I saw one person listed a phone interview a week or two ago but so far it was just that one!

Of course there is enough content! But why not wrap up the last 5-10 minutes with a little something fun, lighten up some... Anyway, I bought in some snacks for the class to enjoy as we went over the last of the course material...a potluck would have been cool, maybe next time.

So the semester is coming to an end and the last classes are coming up soon. I thought it might be good to wrap up with a fun activity, but I also don't want to treat my students like they are kids or something... Does anyone do things like this? Any ideas?

Is this a bad thing to do? My advisor has told me I should submit the same paper to both a conference and a journal, concurrently. This seems like something that might be accepted, but kind of lame to do. What's the general consensus on this?

I encountered this list while looking a while back: University of Colorado at Colorado Springs University of Northern Iowa UT San Antonio Augusta State in Georgia College of William and Mary Wake Forest University University of Dayton Villanova University Indiana State University Western Illinois Connecticut College San Diego State University Western Kentucky Idaho State University Ball State U. Towson Univeristy Georgia Southern Western Washington This is a few years old now, but hopefully it helps!

Did anyone apply for the MA Program? Has anyone heard back yet? The e-mail after application submission said the process takes about 2-4 weeks..
