Post Declines and Acceptances?

I declined SUNY Buffalo's presidential scholarship on Friday (English, PhD). Good luck, waitlisters!

Not that I think it will affect too many at this stage in the game but I've finally declined offers from NYU and Rutgers today.

If anyone's still waiting it out, yesterday and today I declined offers from Ohio State, Illinois U-C, UW-Seattle, CUNY, and took name off waitlist at Brandeis. The UIUC offer was a fellowship.

I'll be attending USC!! Very excited!

That's great to hear! Though I didn't reply in that thread, that's where I secretly was hoping you'd go.

I declined an unfunded offer from the University of Washington MA/PhD program (since it's unfunded the deadline was May 15th - I would have declined sooner but couldn't figure out how, or who to contact!).

I also declined a fully-funded + fellowship offer from the UC-Davis PhD program. Somewhat painfully - everyone there was so lovely!

Just accepted an offer from UC Irvine in Comp Lit.

Hello again!

Regardless of what you're doing today, congrats on surviving to see the sun rise on April 15th!

I declined fully funded offers from Boston College (a few minutes ago) and West Virginia (on Tuesday). I am also taking my name off the waitlists at Northeastern and the University of New Hampshire. I accepted an offer from the University of Florida. I hope this helps some of you out! Goodluck to those still waiting!

Before I make my decisions at other schools, I am waiting on Miami of Ohio. Anyone turning down a PhD in Rhet/Comp offer from Miami Ohio? Send me a message if you can.

Finally decided - I just accepted an eleventh-hour offer from WUSTL.

I turned down UC Irvine, which seemed like a really wonderful and friendly program and had almost as much of a funding package as Washington University in St. Louis. It was definitely a sad and difficult decision, but I couldn't say no to the job placement record at WashU.

I hope that UC Irvine will continue accepting from their waitlist after the April 15th deadline - I know they have one, because I was admitted from it myself. Best of luck to everyone still waiting. I firmly believe that hell will, somehow, feature waitlists in its retinue of tortures.

I accepted Bowling Green's offer and removed myself from the waitlists at Michigan State and Purdue (comp/rhet).

I just asked the University of Florida (unfunded) to defer my admission decision to Fall 2011. I think that it would probably be better for me to turn it down. It's not my top choice school and maybe I can free up the spot for someone else. My top choice (Arizona State) has not gotten back to me, yet.
