TheHoff Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Contacted the Graduate Director at UCSC today as encouraged by the Graduate Advisor to ask for an update, she replied asking if we could set a call which I found pretty weird as she could just give me an update by email Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasturi Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Same story here. Applied for a PhD in Public Health at Davis and haven't heard back. I contacted the student advisor and she politely said I'll check and get back and haven't heard back since. I got accepted at Tufts, but I want to see what Davis offers before taking up Tufts. I need to respond to them before April 15th, which is the catch :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yomama Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 I was rejected by 2 programs from UC San Diego through email late March, however, I am still waiting to hear from UC Santa Barbara, UC Davis, and Oregon State University. It's getting so late now, I think that all programs will reject my applications soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHoff Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Got a phone call from UCSC's program director yesterday to tell me that I was accepted but they can't give me any financial assistance (again). Today I got my letter of acceptance from UCSB (my top choice) and it's the same situation. No funding, can't guarantee a TA and so on. I could afford to pay for the year and apply for a TA and hope I get selected so I don't have to pay, but I think if they didn't offer me financial assistance during admission they would probably not do it afterwards too. All hopes shattered for this year again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
