Blah, emailed Washington and they haven't even reviewed my application yet! *dies* I keep thinking 'this week I'll know' and then the Universities are like 'ha, what you thought sucka! :twisted: '
I have a 2.9 and I got into Cornell, so I think that's not a deal breaker for most schools. *Shrug* I think as long as the rest of your app is strong, you fit a faculty member and that member has money for you, being from a small uni isn't a big deal.
Hmm, so I talked to Linda and apparently after the interviews happen, they'll accept/reject from that group, hand out money and then reevaluate us kids that didn't get invited. I had assumed I was just rejected but apparently both of my reviewers gave me strong ratings so now my hopes are back up again. Darn it! :roll:
How absolutely ridiculous behaviour for an adult to be engaging in! You provide an amazing resource for grad students (and dewy-eyed undergrads ) and this person, for lack of a more pc word, rips off your ideas. May he go down in plagaristic flames if he ever enters grad school. It would be an excellent punishment.
Again, great great site!
