UNC, South Carolina, Penn State seem to come out a bit later but I did see an acceptance from UNC on the result page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just checked an email I got from my POI about two weeks ago at Penn State, said we should hear results in 3 weeks. I guess that means one week left? kpietromica 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qocha_geog Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 (edited) I heard from UT Austin last night via phone call from POI. And this morning my online portal reflected this, along with an email from department. Really excited, probably my top pick school and pending funding, which my POI say should be announced in a few weeks will most likely attend. Edit: This is for MA program.

Shnoztastic Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I had a few profs from undergrad that attended Penn State and they said when I spoke with who said that Penn State is notorious for sending out rejections/acceptances really late.

That's really only a week difference, so probably nothing to wig out about Maybe they're ahead of schedule!

Yup, I did, the Ph.D. program. It's basically my dream program! I saw that you did as well! You'll have to let me know when you get a response. If you want to direct message about POIs or State College (my significant other's hometown so we visit a lot!) you can totally hmu kpietromica 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpietromica Posted February 6, 2018 Author Share Posted February 6, 2018 Who is everyone still waiting on? I’m waiting (very anxiously ???) on University of Oregon University of Washington Penn State University of Arizona and Comparative Studies at Ohio State Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indigopierogy Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I'm waiting on LSU, Penn State, the University of Kentucky (2 programs; Geography I am supposed to email them on Friday to see if I got in; probs didn't!), West Virginia and UDel. They're all Geography programs except for the other program at U Kentucky, which is WGSS. I'm going out of my mind thinking about this! Mostly because I'd like to get into more than one school, or I'd like to know if it's just the one school so I can accept and look for apartments and be done with it. I want the whole thing to be over! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chineseurbanmapper Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) Hey y'all, I've been lurking the Geography forum and results for the past few months. I am hesitant to reveal my details until after I have accepted an offer; and I have not posted in the results section. Although, my username hints at some information. I do recognize I am in an incredibly fortunate situation, and I hope the best for everyone. University of Washington, Seattle (Accepted) University of British Columbia, Vancouver (Accepted) University of Tennessee, Knoxville (Accepted) Arizona State University, Tempe (Invitation to Visit Day) University of California, Los Angeles (TBD) Pennsylvania State University, University Park (TBD) Edited February 7, 2018 by chineseurbanmapper kpietromica, Chuks, ponlear and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indigopierogy Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Accepted to WVU and University of Kentucky's Geography programs today!! Feeling very excited. No info on funding from WVU though, which makes me a little nervous! Shnoztastic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94AVL Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Accepted to South Carolina today! Their open house is during a conference I am having to attend. They are offering funding to attend the open house. Do you think if I ask for a different visitation date they could fit me in sometime? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpietromica Posted February 8, 2018 Author Share Posted February 8, 2018 For anyone who has heard from the University of Washington, can you tell me where on your application you can see the change in status? Im definitely starting to expect the worst ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kpietromica Posted February 9, 2018 Author Share Posted February 9, 2018 So do you think it’s a bad omen that even if I was accepted the POI didn’t contact me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94AVL Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I was accepted into UNC yesterday! Really didn't think that would happen. No word on funding from anywhere but Tennessee so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
