Anyone else already submit their applications?

[petitebiscuit]

Anyone else already submit their applications, and are now wondering why they gave themselves the extra weeks of waiting????

 

[JTacademics]

Yeah, I did.  I put in quite a few, and probably rushed mine a bit, but I was just so excited.  On the brightside, one of my schools does rolling admissions (ECU, my undergrad), so I may hear back from them quickly.  The rest are pretty good schools, so I likely won't hear back until March-April.

NC State (Physics), Wake Forest (Physics), Duke (Medical Physics and also Molecular Cancer Biology), UNC (Biochemistry), ECU (Medical Physics).

Really hoping for a Physics or Medical Physics acceptance, but will continue on with Biochemistry as well, because I do enjoy all of it. We'll see!

[ResilientDreams]

I've submitted one and am sitting on three more that are "done" but just need some final edits. I have two more with later deadlines to work on and I also need to gently remind my recommenders to submit their recs..

I did the same thing! But I had been working on them since like September. I was just so ready to send them in! 

[MichaelMonroe]

Submitting three tonight! 2 others require extra writing samples that I'll finish over Thanksgiving and the other 3 have January deadlines so I've got more time for them. 

[sociological_introvert]

My program was rolling admissions and I applied a little over two weeks ago! The suspense is killing me!!

[bloome]

yes! I submitted today and I'm already antsy! Some of my programs are rolling admission though so fingers crossed I hear back sooner rather than later. The holidays are going to be full of suspense.

I am only missing a LOR to my application for PhD. But I am done with all the other documents. I'm also an early-bird!

@Adelaide9216

I'm also from Canada and applying to PhD's in social work! Where are you applying? I'm having so much difficulty narrowing it down for US schools, as I don't have post MSW experience.

Ottawa  What about you? 

[mayu101]

I also ended up submitting my applications "early" - the last one was put in yesterday. Still waiting on my LORs to trickle in, which does keep my mind off of the application results, at least for now.

Best of luck to y'all!

[crazycheese8]

I just submitted tonight! Been working on the app since it came out in September, I probably rewrote my SOP 10 times before seeking help and coming up with something I really love. I'm only applying to one program – I'm finishing undergrad this year, and I only want to go straight to graduate school if it's the perfect fit. Waiting for my last couple of LORs to come in as well.

[loffire]

Submitted the bulk of my application. Just got feedback from my professor on my writing sample so editing that and hope to get them all submitted by end of the weekend. Then probably check in to see all my documents have been received before the deadline

[historygeek]

I've submitted all of my applications, just need to pay 2 more application fees and get my letters of recommendation in. I absolutely can't wait another 1-4 months to find out!

Thank you! You too! The amount of documents for that school is super weird to me.

As a first-time (intl) applicant, this is the worst part! I'm not too sure *how* I will cope with the next couple of weeks. Time to pick up a bunch of new hobbies I guess! 

[Teaching Faculty Wannabe]

I have submitted to eight! I can't submit my ninth one because as I was about to submit, it says that a writing sample is required. I didn't even know what to submit because it didn't say anywhere on the website and the other ones didn't ask for a sample, so I emailed the university. I am also waiting on one LOR writer to submit for all the universities, but otherwise, I hope all goes and I hope the same for you all!

[pineapplepizza]

I was determined to get it done before Thanksgiving.. but now the suspense is killing me haha. 11 programs psychology PhD. fingers crossed!

[dna]

Applying to 8 - 10 schools ( I thought it was a lot until I read somebody applying to 25 schools). I have completed 5 already and working on four atm. Hoping to submit them by the end of the week
