Got into Berkeley and I'm curious if students typically buy their own flights Congrats on Berkeley! So far, Emory is the only school I've heard back from that offered to pay for the entire recruitment weekend. Also, I would bet that some schools offer financial assistance to low-income students who can't afford the trip, but not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got into Berkeley and I'm curious if students typically buy their own flights Most if not all of the schools I got into offered to reimburse flights and provide lodging with a current graduate student. One (University of Washington) said they would "subsidize" travel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping to find out about a travel stipend or something in the final details -- I don't think I'll make it to visit days without one, unfortunately.

Soc_foucault Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I just got accepted at Berkeley. I cannot believe it. I thought for sure I had been rejected after others were notified of their acceptance earlier this week. mighettio, KLMN0701, Cinnoo_ and 7 others 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artvandaley Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Congrats to all the Toronto admits! I had also applied there, safe to assume I'm rejected.. and no other acceptances yet. and despite all the pessimism brewing up inside me, I feel so warm when I read all these encouraging comments in this forum.

HumanHeatSOC Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 This waiting is hurting my anxiety numbers that I have been working so hard to keep at a bearable level. Have not even been called for an interview from anywhere... talk about blue. I had a temper tantrum in front of my mentor who told me I would be turning people away! There were vigorous hand gestures and everything... and I am her most decorous mentee. Sercan_ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jriveracal Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I woke up feeling like I was going to make February my bitch, but my horoscope is sad af ? Feb 1, 2019 - A goal you've recently been on the verge of attaining may suddenly hit unexpected setbacks. However major or minor they are, it's going to be disheartening. The only thing you can do is pick up the pieces and move on. The goal isn't dead in the water. There are only some extra tasks that need to be done before you achieve it. Do what you have to, and hang in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think Princeton will communicate about acceptances until later in Feb. now we are in feb so it could be any time now I guess. heres hoping I hear from somewhere today!

hardatwork Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Had a heart attack when a call came in during class today. Almost stepped out to take it but rationalized that I could call back after class. Finally listened to the voicemail and it was just the fake IRS telling me I owed California money... I feel like my anxiety is going to be at an all time high until 5pm today. markhame 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
