  1. Last year, I wrote a thank you card and gave them a little magnetic puppet online from the unemployed philosophers guild-- they have a ton of cute theorists and literary figures. They are $5 each, but it's a nice thoughtful gesture. Plus they get really excited about them and proudly display them somewhere in their office.
  2. No news from Georgia State-- anyone in the same boat. I emailed a week ago. No answer. I keep checking the website. No change.
  3. I was in the same boat, and sent an email on Friday. The DGS said that letters went out three weeks ago... and that although I made it to the final cut, I wasn't chosen. It was a really nice email though-- one of the better ones I've gotten from department's.
  4. I emailed last Friday-- still no response. I keep checking the website-- no change.
  5. Just want to add this little gem to the mix... I emailed asking about my status and this was the response: Good Day Danielle, Your application has completed the review process. You should be receiving your letter shortly. Thank You Wow. At least I got a good day? I guess they value brevity and tight writing at Temple.
  6. I was accepted to Kent's phd program without funding. I talked to the chair, and he told me that my chances of getting an assistantship were not that great (not sure if MAs compete for the same ones). I have teaching experience and he said that if I do choose to accept, then I might be able to pick up a few classes and then apply for one next year. Not sure yet what I'm going to do, since I'm still waiting to hear from 4 schools.
  7. Haven't heard from them either. I finally emailed them two days ago, but from the sounds of it I shouldn't hold my breath. BUT know you aren't alone.. I actually haven't heard a peep from a handful of schools, and I finally emailed them all out of sheer aggravation.
  8. Yeah. I need to do that. You're right. I just need to also muster up the courage to. There is something about emailing people and getting rejected that hurts even worse. It's like I'm curious whoo-hoo. And I furiously check my email for the response. And then it's like boo. Maybe Monday I will. I mean tomorrow's Friday, no point in getting bad news on a Friday right?
  9. Ugh-- that probably means I'm rejected, since I'm already blessed with an MA and did not get the waitlist email. Well, c'est la vie. And what does that even mean-- please apply for the MA, does that mean you're a shoe-in? These people are so frustrating! And I still haven't heard from Temple yet, which is absolutely annoying-- did they give you any info. in their acceptance letter?
  10. Anyone NOT get the waitlist email that is still waiting to hear from northeaster? or perhaps may have heard? I keep checking the website but nothing.
  11. Ok first-- is he funded? Because that would really piss me off. Second... can I audit is first year comp class? That would be interesting...
  12. Check and see when they're on spring break-- not that that excuses leaving people on pins and needles. They like you a lot obviously, they don't want to piss you off. You never want to piss off your backup plan.
  13. Perhaps that means if we didn't get that email then we're rejected? I'm on the verge of sending an email... oh but I don't want to... maybe tomorrow.
