UVA acceptances trickling in. Looks like that's just the norm for most schools this year.
Oh, the GRE...even if it were to be completely useless, there's no way we'd be able to convince departments of that. I think it's far too convenient a cut-off tool.
Sorry -- I don't know how to use this board as efficiently as I should. Is there a central location (a board?) where people announce that they've received acceptances?

When you receive an offer letter by email, do you write a response to the faculty member? If you already have better offers, what do you do?

Just a quick question.
I noticed that a couple acceptances to UVA have popped up, however I checked on applyyourself and my email, and nothing has come through. Is it safe to assume I was rejected?
Feels bad man
I'm told that a lot of schools do rolling admissions. A DGS will extend a few offers in a week (or over a couple of days) and then update his/her information. So don't feel bad yet.
What field are you in ?

Got my official notification, going to Stanford. I am almost embarrassed to write this though, never thought it would be me. If this cycle doesn't pan out how you want it to - try again! That's what I did!
Best of luck everybody!
Congrats. But if you know you're going to Stanford, please turn down your other offers. Schools often can't make additional offers until they receive turn downs.

And I'm told a Traders Joe's will open in 2012!

A friend told me about this place for fresh local produce:
It's a little ways from Grounds, but he said it's worth the trip.

Davis. It's not even a contest.

Berkeley was fun.

SBM is definitely making the move. As is Brown, I promise.
So how important are these departures for you? Does it advantage other schools to which you've been admitted? Are those schools stable in their faculty members?

Who has been to a grad student weekend? Where? And did you enjoy your visit?
How important was the visit to your eventual decision?
