Congratulations everygirl & mangetout! All the best in your chosen programs

Thank you guys for the support. It helped so much, yesterday. I did pick up on the "wine" suggestion, and strongly recommend it. Hehe, hubby bought me the 90% dark chocolate, a gesture which comes from 5 years of experience . Picked 12 hours of sleep which helped recover from the negativity quicker. First thing this morning, I checked my email with eyes half shut and found a response from Ottawa U's MA in Communication. A positive, at long last! Fate is a roller coaster...

I just got a declination from Carleton's PhD in Communications. Didn't expect it to hurt this much One would expect to be strong after so many life experiences, ups and downs, etc...but I guess sad news are what they are!

Yikes. My MA application disappeared from Ottawa U Info Web. What could that mean?

girlsetsfire101--I am also waiting on Ottawa U. Like yourself, when I saw someone reporting a response on their MA application to Communication in Ottawa U, I called and emailed the school asap to ask if decisions were made. In both cases, the school answered with the geenric "results will be emailed by the end of April.' I find it interesting that they'd respond this late, given that my application was complete in December. Furthermore, the automated response once you hand in the application says "We will review your application over the next few weeks." Anyways, I don't see any reason for concern. After all, only a SINGLE unverifiable individual posted a result on this website Good luck!

Just got an informal email response from a Carleton PhD program (one, and waiting on another) that the first round of acceptances were sent out. I was not selected. Not clear to me as yet, whether my application was waitlisted or rejected.

Got theh same response on the phone just now. I was told that responses will be sent out through email by the end of April! END OF APRIL? Is it for real, or are they giving the worst possible scenario? My application was complete in December, and the email at that point said "we will begin to review your application within the next few weeks."

I have two PhD applications at Carleton & one MA application at Ottawa U. One of Carleton's programs told me I would hear back after March 15th. Yep, moi getting a bit fidgety.
