No, not yet. I e-mailed the graduate coordinator early March and she replied that the results should be out by mid- or late March. Then, I guess this coming week is the last week.

Hey, interestingmix, I was curious and looked it up. Yes, the program seems pretty strong for sociology students who are interested in interdisciplinary research. The combination of faculty is amazing. I had been shopping around for interdisciplinary program and did not bump into this one. I think it's too late for me to apply now; although the offical deadline is April 1. And I do not think the body of faculty does really match my research interests. But I am so delighted to see such an energetic, renovative, and refreshing program! I almost feel like it can be the sociological counterpart of the Standford Modern Thought and Literature program (an interdisciplinary program with a base in literature). I envy you! Plus, it's Miami!

Dear all, I received an offer from a Sociology Ph.D. program from a Canadian school, which has a deadline to accept the offer on 3/30. However, I haven't heard from all of my schools yet. I wrote to those schools immediately I was informed I was accepted into the 3/30-deadline program. I got some rejections back. Then, there is one school which is still in the process of reviewing applications. The graduate coordinator said that offers will not send out until late March. My question is: it is 3/19 now, if this remaining school accepts me and tells me this week, I guess their Recruitment Day (if they have one) will not be earlier than 3/30. How am I supposed to make an informed decision? Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Regards, McDull

Sexuality&Power: Please don't give up hope yet! From you signature, I see you still have some very decent programs you have not heard from. Please don't give up hope yet! I was also preparing going home but I received my first offer today! Stay positive! There are always alternatives and different options! I'm an international too; maybe you could use your OPT to stay for one more year and apply again next year? It can just be that competition this year is exceptionally tough. But stay positive for now! Wait until you hear from all programs.

Congratulations! Lixy! Any information is much appreciated! Thank you!

Yes, thank you to BlackHatGuy too! Congratulations! UC Santa Cruz is my dream program. I study Chinese sexual minorities. Then, you know, it's UC Santa Cruz. But congratulations!

I second to jerzygirl. It would be very helpful if we could have a bit information. And congratulations to acceptance! Might I ask those who get accepted, what do you study?

I saw another post of acceptance of anthropology at UC Santa Cruz. If I have not heard anything by now, does it mean that I am rejected? Santa Cruz is my first choice.

I also would like to hear more about the UCSC admission. I haven't heard anything either.
