I got the email from them last night, and a call this morning too for the campus visit. This was only the second response I got from my applications so I was getting really antsy.

trashfire Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 I wanted to make a post to summarize my application results, since I liked reading them from previous years. Undergrad GPA: 3.96, GRE: 159V/157Q/5.5W. I had about 3 years of various research experience when applying. I graduated in spring 2018. I did not have any publications and I only presented a senior capstone project at an undergrad research conference. My letter writers presumably wrote some kick ass letters also. I applied to 5 schools, all criminology/criminal justice programs: U of Maryland, SUNY Albany, UC Irvine, George Mason University, and John Jay. I received acceptances from the first 4 and am currently wait-listed by John Jay. I have not decided on where I'll be attending! I don't really have any special advice. Although, I did wish that I started the apps earlier. I very much procrastinated and submitted some the day after the deadline! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my rejection from them early Feb. I'm an American though, and they essentially have no funding for international students so its possible they just reject us pretty quickly.

I haven't heard a peep yet from them (emailed them a few days ago and still nothing) and my other schools are getting antsy for a response.

I wasn't very impressed with the program's response to my emails. The grad coordinator was impossible to reach, and no one even told me they have no funding for international students until a few days before the application was due. Admittedly, it was partly my fault for not reading the international student page, but what can I say, as an American I just didn't really think of myself as an international student going to Canada ? I hope you get an answer one way or another soon! I assume you've logged into the portal and it doesn't show a response there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That lack of communication is unfortunate. Thank you for your help!
