newyorkmets188 Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 Definitely nervous and anxious. It is hard not to think about when we will get the decisions.
aaustin Posted January 13, 2019 Posted January 13, 2019 George Mason decisions have started coming out.

newyorkmets188 Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 I have not gotten my decision from Temple. I got rejected to George Mason and accepted to IUP.
newyorkmets188 Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 I just made some calls. UPenn said they are trying to have decisions in by the end of January. GA State, UMass Lowell, and American should have decisions by the middle of February. Here is where I applied and my decisions so far. Applying: Temple, UMass Lowell, IUP, George Mason, GA State, American, UPenn Accepted Waitlisted Rejected Attending
newyorkmets188 Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 For Temple: Decisions should be posted no later than the first week of February.
mighettio Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 Hi all! I got a call last night inviting me to UC irvine's interview weekend (AHH!!), does anyone know what to expect?? How many people do they invite to the weekend and how many do they accept after?

newyorkmets188 Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 I called Temple because I saw that some people were accepted already and that is what they told me.
Daniela_K Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 Hi! I have the same doubt as Mighettio, I was invited to the UCI interview and would like to know what it entails and what the chances are of being selected. Thanks!!

I haven’t been invited and had a feeling they’d start yesterday. UCI is my first choice and I know Dr. Reiter and Dr. Lynch so I’m hoping I’ll still be contacted.
EV1764 Posted January 17, 2019 Posted January 17, 2019 South Carolina decisions are out. Accepted, but no word on funding.

I spoke with Dave Halgreen there earlier -- UCI invited 30 people to attend the weekend and 28 have already confirmed.

Do you know if they only invited those 30? The status of my application is still only “Submitted” as they haven’t even looked at mine yet. Also is this for February 3 or 4th? Or is the combination of the two? Edited January 18, 2019 by HighStrangeness

I'm not 100% positive, he said "we invited 30 and 28 have already confirmed." My understanding is that the visit is both the 3rd and 4th, verse two separate visit days, but maybe I'm wrong! I'd call dave halgreen, the graduate coordinator, and ask him for the status of your application. He made it very clear to me that they had not yet determined the admission status of anyone.

I am not feeling extremely confident, I have been in email contact with Dave Halgren and he has to be vague with admissions, but he ended his email with “Try to have a nice weekend,” which sounds like I should be prepared for rejection. I emailed Dr. Lynch feeling that I may not get an interview. She said she wished she was on the Admissions committee to give me a slot, but she can’t. She said the program is EXTREMELY competitive at UCI this cycle. But she made it seem that if you didn’t get an interview you aren’t in. Edited January 19, 2019 by HighStrangeness
EV1764 Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Is anyone already at that point where you're infuriated at any emails not related to PhD offers?
