I just received funding information (literally a few minutes ago), so I guess they started sending them today. Ah yes, got it soon after I posted that lol. Lower than I expected/had hoped for — hopefully I can figure something out! Hope it's a good offer for you! Doxa 1

hardatwork Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 Has anyone else been watching their phone obsessively? I wish everything was via email! I'm worried I won't be coherent over the phone because I'll be too excited! jamjar, Miners Canary, bandanajack and 1 other 2 2
jamjar Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 Seems like there has only been two acceptances to Columbia...anyone in here heard from them? Also when people say they are contacting their POI, are you just emailing to say in a nice way “what’s the hold up?”
thedudeabides Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 A bit off topic, but we're 9 results away from the 10,000th Sociology-related result on the board. Hoping that it's a solid acceptance for whoever hits that number! high_hopes, user4224, quantso and 3 others 6
Vldksh Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 I see that interview process has started for Yale today..... when will i hear from them please God

Unfortunately yes, it's normal. Obviously depends on your specific program, but many program will only send out decisions in February (usually mid to late). From what I see, and UMass Amherst says explicitly on their web page to not hear anything back until the end of this month. So I am also in the waiting game... Hoping to hear back from UConn any day, any hour, any minute now... Good luck! markhame and TheBunny 2

DuBois Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 So I had a perfect fit with POI at U Chicago and even mailed him a few times, but I haven't been interviewed. I am wondering how this stands for me ..
SgtDonut Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 Think positive thoughts y'all! Lots of us haven't heard back from our fave schools yet. I have only heard from two of the 12 schools I applied to. But maybe today will bring some exciting surprises. If not, this will all be over by March... Good vibes all around.

jriveracal Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 (edited) Is this the calm before the storm? It's February 5th and I've heard from 1/14 programs. What kind of sick joke is this? Edited February 5, 2019 by jriveracal socio_socio and thetrailblazers 2

both_and_also Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 Did anyone apply to LSE by any chance? It's rolling admissions, and they say it takes roughly 8 weeks after your date of submission for them to release a decision. I'm going on ten weeks now and still have heard nothing. It's been "under consideration by the department" pretty much the whole time. I'm curious if anyone has heard anything from them as well as whether one's application passes onto a stage after "consideration by the department" before a decision is made. I'm American and am unfamiliar with the UK system and the timelines on these things. Thanks so much for the help!

aniesociology Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 Is it to late to hope for a Duke admission now?
SeijiAmasawyeah Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 If anyone ends up declining a Rutgers funded offer, would you be willing to post here letting us know that it's been declined? It might help some of us waiting to suss out where we are on the waitlist if we know when funding lines are coming available. socio1251 1
smam Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 Claiming one of the Indiana acceptances! Very surprising considering I thought that they interviewed before sending out decisions. Super excited nonetheless!

HumanHeatSOC Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 I thought this whole thing would feel better, BUT am genuinely happy for those who are getting their acceptances! Temper tantrum (Rejection) #2 Me: Just received my second rejection. This is terrible and I am beyond surprised. This is not what I expected at all. Prof/Mentor: Just hang in there! You haven't heard from everyone yet. I am so glad that this is surprising to you. It shows how far you've come and the confidence that... Me: I AM SURPRISED BECAUSE YOU AND COHORT TOLD ME I'D HAVE MY PICK OF OFFERS. Prof/Mentor: Would you like some tea, crazy lady? *Verbatim*... and I am devolving into the worst version of myself!

I feel this. All of my mentors were like "TRUST ME, you're going to have to end up deciding who YOU want to accept." I did get into Irvine, but am sitting on 4 implied rejections at this point. Did you already hear anything from Brown? I see your signature indicates that you were rejected? socsoc19 1
