Nina Posted February 27, 2010 Author Posted February 27, 2010 (edited) from? when? i talked to gordon, the graduate secretary and he said that they are finalizing decisions this week. Edited February 27, 2010 by Nina
anthroboy2010 Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 i talked to gordon, the graduate secretary and he said that they are finalizing decisions this week. I've been in contact with the DGS and she said that they would have news very soon. I'd expect that we will hear this upcoming week, maybe as early as Monday.

far_to_go Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 eee, I really want to find out either way! I'm pretty much settled on where I'm going, but a good offer from Yale could persuade me to reconsider that decision. Of course, if I get a "no" from Yale, then I can just proceed with the current plan of action. Either way, though, I'm really hoping to hear from Yale soon! Best of luck to all!

Who do y'all want to work with at Yale?

lurkingnomad Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 hmm so someone heard back from yale huh? iiiiiiiiiinteresting...=/
Nina Posted March 2, 2010 Author Posted March 2, 2010 can someone confirm this? anyone accepted or waitlisted? i know that schools give out admissions first. i didn't receive an email..and i am so terrified now. can someone call? i called yesterday and am afraid that they might recognize my voice and think i am crazy..
denim_pocket Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 can someone confirm this? anyone accepted or waitlisted? i know that schools give out admissions first. i didn't receive an email..and i am so terrified now. can someone call? i called yesterday and am afraid that they might recognize my voice and think i am crazy.. I called today- acceptances will go out this week. No information is available via website. The results search posts on Yale must be fake or a mistake.
Nina Posted March 3, 2010 Author Posted March 3, 2010 I called today- acceptances will go out this week. No information is available via website. The results search posts on Yale must be fake or a mistake. there's one posting about biological anthro today. anyone in cultural got accepted?
Nina Posted March 4, 2010 Author Posted March 4, 2010 there's one posting about biological anthro today. anyone in cultural got accepted? is the posting on the result page real? yale is my TOP TOP choice and i am having a break down thinking i didn't get in.. can someone confirm this for me? plz reply anyone. I am so tired of waiting..
anthroboy2010 Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 is the posting on the result page real? yale is my TOP TOP choice and i am having a break down thinking i didn't get in.. can someone confirm this for me? plz reply anyone. I am so tired of waiting.. call again. if you're freaking out about the department contact recognizing your voice, call another person (if you called the graduate secretary, try calling the director of graduate studies; she's really nice). the only good news: you're not alone. hang in there.
Nina Posted March 4, 2010 Author Posted March 4, 2010 call again. if you're freaking out about the department contact recognizing your voice, call another person (if you called the graduate secretary, try calling the director of graduate studies; she's really nice). the only good news: you're not alone. hang in there. thanks anthroboy..
indianacat Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 is the posting on the result page real? yale is my TOP TOP choice and i am having a break down thinking i didn't get in.. can someone confirm this for me? plz reply anyone. I am so tired of waiting.. That posting (the bio anth) is real, yes (me!). Out of the blue, with no contact from POI or anything so very surprised. But presumably notifications are going out gradually rather than all at once going by the Results page. Sit tight!

Sit tight! o wow! so was it an email with a link to decision page? do you know if cultural anthro folks have been notified too? congratulations! and congratulations for NYU too!!!
indianacat Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 o wow! so was it an email with a link to decision page? do you know if cultural anthro folks have been notified too? congratulations! and congratulations for NYU too!!! Exactly - an impersonal email to an impersonal webpage! I have had no real contact from faculty so I can't tell you a single thing about what's going on, I'm afraid. I'm quite puzzled myself! (Maybe it was a mistake?!!!) And thank you! Good luck!
lordcromer Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 I called today- acceptances will go out this week. No information is available via website. The results search posts on Yale must be fake or a mistake. I don't mean to sound contentious, but I was indeed wait-listed on Tuesday. Perhaps this bodes well for those who haven't heard yet.
denim_pocket Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 I don't mean to sound contentious, but I was indeed wait-listed on Tuesday. Perhaps this bodes well for those who haven't heard yet. My apologies for the implied accusation. These admissions folks on the other end of the phone really will say anything- they're no more reliable than anonymous grad cafe posts.
Nina Posted March 5, 2010 Author Posted March 5, 2010 My apologies for the implied accusation. These admissions folks on the other end of the phone really will say anything- they're no more reliable than anonymous grad cafe posts. agreed. I did called today and they said "no admission have gone out yet" and it will be going out this week or next week. they are mean and careless.
anthroboy2010 Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 agreed. I did called today and they said "no admission have gone out yet" and it will be going out this week or next week. they are mean and careless. OMG...ugh. Is Yale on Spring Break? This wait is nuts.
Nina Posted March 8, 2010 Author Posted March 8, 2010 to those who have been rejected or waitlisted.. are you guys cultural? or are you guys also biological? i am wondering if it's only bio anthro people who have been notified. i am confused.
a fragrant plant Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 I just found out that Yale's dept is a really good fit for my proposed research. I'm not sure if I should apply next year. Any insider insight? What's the department like? Competitive? Supportive? Family-friendly?
