    Compared to alot of cities, Cleveland is pretty cheap I feel. You can get a pretty decent place for 600/mo w/o a room mate and much cheaper with. I would have a car because public transportation is not so great and biking and walking too far in the winter is not great.

    I am from Cleveland area. I like it, although not a lot of great places to live *in* the city.
  4. Well, I am not sure about mathematics. May be a completely different game. But, it is still *possible* some schools haven't made any decisions yet (this is why this site may help, because you may know). Also, you may get a thick letter in April if you are secret waitlisted and someone else declines. That is, they may wait to tell you yes or no until they know if their top choices are coming or not. And, it could be that there is an applicant or two who are holding spots at a few schools and will eventually reject offers opening spaces. So, do not give up hope until that April 15th deadline that many schools share. Also, if you have no offers by then, it is possible schools will contact you after that if they have neither accepted or rejected you. Chances? It's like telling a dying person. You never know. You could die tomorrow (be rejected everywhere) or live a long and prosperous life (get a great offer!). Good luck and remember that you may have to unfortunately wait until others make their decisions to know.
  5. What programs are you all applying for? I am applying at various psych PhD programs. I am accepted at U Chicago for biopsychology, rejected at UCLA and Berkeley for Social Psych, waitlisted at UCSB for evolutionary and waiting to hear from Arizona State for social, and U Texas-Austin and U New Mexico for evolutionary psych. I am starting to get sick of hearing from law school and masters programs friends who have at least heard from all their schools. Chicago seems great, but I can't commit until I hear from the others (I feel that only ASU and UCSB might have any chance of persuading me). *sigh* I'll just keep obsessing and checking this site, the admissions sites, and my e-mail 50 times a day.
  6. I am in the same situation... don't know what to tell you, except that you aren't alone. Good luck getting motivated and I'm sure everything will work out.

    Whoever posted the acceptance at UCSB what area?
  8. Sure... biopsychology... I just wrote the person I am staying with though and asked. She was really quick to reply and really helpful, so I am a little less stressed now. It seems that everyone I've gotten stuff from is in Goldin-Meadow's lab, so it might be a joint visit between a few labs or something? What are you studying? By the way, thanks for advice too Shellybe
  9. I am supposed to go to U Chicago for an interview weekend this weekend and there are supposed to be (among other things) a grad student dinner and party at a student's apt and a faculty dinner and party at a faculty member's house. I was told that the faculty party is more fancy, but I have no clue what that means. What do you wear to these kind of things. PS- I am a woman and so I understand if guys don't understand my confusion, we just have so many clothing options with so many different purposes! Leah
