illcounsel Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 I just got an email from Saint Louis University with the subject "Graduate Admissions Update". If you applied early, by December 15th, they would let you know by January 15th! Expecting to find an decision, I opened the email to see that they had inclement weather and had to push back the adcom meeting. Now they will be letting early decision people know by the 25th. Inclement Weather Shellacked! Musmatatus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiguresIII Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 I was just jolted out of my late-afternoon dip by an email from Harvard GSAS asking me to submit additional information. Turns out they wanted me to fill out a form regarding foreign language study (I'm applying to Comp Lit). I'm pretty sure I already provided that info in the application...

placeinspace Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Just got an email and lost it thinking it was from Chicago, only to see it was about "How to Marie Kondo Your Kitchen" which is not something I want or need considering I can't cook. thismortalcoil and The Wordsworthian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wordsworthian Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Every time I check my Vanderbilt application status there is a message at the top that begins "We are very pleased you have applied to Vanderbilt University..." and the "We are very pleased part" ALWAYS throws me off into thinking for a split second that I am being accepted. UGH. placeinspace 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year, we received invitations to apply to their Math Program! I don't think many of us would be accepted, but we'd diversify the majors in the program.
