fritz, i received a similar email from the advisor. not sure why i haven't heard from the department, but am glad to know others have received this oddly timed message...seems like it is less likely to be a mistake. my status has not changed from "no decision has been made on your application" either.

Just spoke with the actual graduate advisor for the program. I asked when I could expect to hear about their decision and she very quickly said, "next week." I felt a little guilty for probing further, but I did ask if I could expect an email or USPS and she said both. Soooo, not sure what this means although I tend to think it's not necessarily good. It's purely speculative on my part, but it seems that mass messages are not typically how departments inform folks that they've been accepted : ( It sure would be great to know if anyone has actually recieved a letter of acceptance. If not, it seems like we're all still in the running!

keepswimming did you apply to phd or masters? Have you heard anything yet?

PhD

I found it..."To date, no decision has been made on your application." I guess this is still good news? I still haven't found other SSCE applicants, so it might be too soon to tell. However, I would like to know whether or not the letters were actually sent out. sigh

thanks criticalontology and fidelio...can you tell me where i can find the application status page on ucla's website?

I applied to the doctoral program in SSCE at UCLA and called the administrative assistant today. They mentioned that letters should have gone out last week. She did not seem super confident and encouraged me to call the graduate advisor for the program. Before I start to worry about not having a letter, I was wondering if anyone here has received one?
