HopefulSoc Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 Has anyone heard from Cincinnati? I have a friend who received an email from the director this morning. Apparently official acceptances don't go out until Monday, according to the email.
HippieHadley Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 Has anyone heard any updates from Upenn or Temple? I can't tell if I'm waitlisted or not.
newyorkmets188 Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 Temple: I emailed this week and they said that by mid-Feb you will hear decisions. I have not heard from Upenn.

Either we are all waiting for rejections letters to come mid-February... sigh... or they don't have their sh*t together. I'm shocked that a couple was accepted in December but then they don't notify anybody else of anything for two whole months it's a little aggravating.

It is very aggravating, frankly annoying, and inconsiderate on their behalf.

Do you think you have a chance at getting in? It seems like there's a lot of people on this feed that seem more than qualified but didn't hear anything in December. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

But truly, I don't know because you don't know what they are looking for and which applications they are tossing. Right now, my gut is telling me that I will be rejected. What about you? Where did you apply?

Where did you apply? Yeah, I feel the same way that I am definitely going to be rejected. I only applied to four schools Northeastern: rejected from the Ph.D. accepted into the masters with a scholarship; Penn State: still waiting; University of Iowa: accepted with a $20,000 stipend and full funding for five years (Sociology concentrated on crim).

Congrats on the acceptance! Yay! At least you got one with funding! I applied to Temple, UMASS Lowell, IUP, GMU, GSU, American, and UPENN. I got into IUP with funding to be announced in March. Got rejected at GMU.
beautifuladrenaline Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 Thank you! And congrats on your acceptance at IUP! Hopefully, there is going to be good funding. I didn't know they had online Ph.D. programs! That seems like it would be hard. I looked into UMASS Lowell but I am trying to coordinate schools with my SO, so it makes it difficult to find places that both align with what we want. American is a great school! And it's in DC which makes it even better
Exhausted Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 Just got an email from WSU. Accepted with full funding! anxious_scholar and EV1764 2

This is a huge confidence boost after some rejections. So excited! Hi! Regarding John Jay - did they invite you to interview via skype or in person? Because I was invited to interview via skype and would like to know if I should travel to interview in person instead. Thank you!!
Daniela_K Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 Hi! To those invited to an interview at John Jay for the Criminal Justice PhD - have you been invited to interview in person and visit or to interview via skype? Because I was invited to interview via skype, but would like to know if it´s more recommendable to travel there for an interview in person. Thank you!!

Skype was an option if I had scheduling conflicts with their visit date.
EV1764 Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 Heard back from South Carolina on funding. GA spot!! anxious_scholar 1
