  1. Not to high-jack this thread, but I have two technology questions as well: 1. Right now, I have a standard sized HP. I used to carry it around with me on campus all day, but it was unbearably heavy. I use my laptop to take notes during class. I was wondering should I invest in a tiny netbook (doesn't have to be brand-name or anything) to make the trek around school easier? Another reason I'm considering this is because my laptop now takes up major amounts of space in class as well. What netbooks are worth purchasing (without spending too much money)? 2. You guys are talking about software tools such as BibleWorks and the like - are there any out there in Qur'an version?
  2. I'm not sure about Chicago, but my undergrad advisers in the Religious Studies department did talk highly of Duke's MA. They told me it's a great place to get loads of research experience, and that it's a great feeder-school for PhD's.
  3. Hoping everyone is getting good news! Esp all my Religious Studies folks!

  5. Can you just admissions offices and say you are an applicant that is inquiring about the time-frame of when decisions will be made without giving your name? Or do you think they'll ask your name as well? I'm not sure about how long to wait until after applications are sent in, but if there is a posted estimate as to when the decisions will be made, I would wait about two weeks after said date before inquiring.
  6. It got worse after I deleted it too... -.-
  7. Yes! I could've sworn I had seen it around application season!
  8. No one could've said it better! And goodness, I sure do hope you receive good news from your top choice soon!
  9. I would answer this, but JDM already took the cake on this one
  10. I might just have to take that with you - I've heard the same! And thank you! Congrats on BU! To everyone else: is it weird that although I got into my top school, I'm still wondering if I got into UVA or not? Haha, I wonder if they'll ever let me know, hahaha. From what I've heard, they don't even send out rejections for PHD candidates until May! That's ridiculous!
  11. I'll be at HDS. You looking for a roommate? Hahaha!
  12. Thank you!!!! It's almost 3AM and I can't sleep because I'm STILL running off of the excitement of finding out fourteen hours ago! Haha! As for your question, you can always withdraw. The only downside is losing the $$ you put in to reserve a seat.
  13. An acceptance into Harvard (well, in my email inbox, anyway). And then I got ANOTHER email a few hours later telling me I got a full tuition grant! My head is pretty much about to explode from happiness, lmao.
  14. Got accepted into HDS with full tuition grant! My head is about to explode from happiness!!!!
  15. Big congrats to those who got acceptances and my condolences to those who got rejections - here's hoping all of us are somewhere great in August of 2012!!!!
  16. Just found out I got accepted into NYU's MA program. No funding. Won't be going.
  17. Well, if it makes you feel any better, I drove the most beaten down Honda all throughout undergrad. I decided to splurge and buy myself the tC, and now I kind of regret it seeing as to my finances will be changing drastically within a few months! Haha. Oy, I could go on and on about cars... but I should stop before I get vastly off topic! And have you heard from any of the three choices yet?
  18. What are your top three choices? And whoo! JDM ftw (I have a Scion tC that I started modding when I got it last year... until the reality of paying for grad school hit and I decided to start saving money... haha)
  19. My parents have started hiding all of my mail (most of it is junk, and I have all of my bills electronically mailed to me) and immediately tell me I got nothing as soon as I walk through the door. They understand.
  20. Well, if it makes you feel any better, I'm going to tell you that I'm pretty sure someone is going to get into Yale (off of their waitlist) if Harvard grants me admission... so...
  21. Sorry to hear, JDM . Here's hoping for the rest you are waiting for! (Btw, does the JDM in your name mean about cars... or something completely different? Haha, I've always wondered and I probably will be completely off. Sorry, I'm into modding cars).
  22. Hopefully HDS will come through for the both of us!
