SexandtheHaecceity Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 (edited) My implicit Stony Brook rejection became an explicit Stony Brook rejection, though I did get admitted to the MA program. Anyone know about funding to determine whether it's worth serious consideration? Think I'm going to send a follow up email today and see what they say. Ā Edit: NVM. The website explicitly says that there's no money for MA.Ā Edited March 1, 2019 by SexandtheHaecceity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kantattheairport Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Rejected at Rutgers and UPenn. Penn had the annoying email -> portal -> download a pdf letter to find out thing, but the letter itself was unusually optimistic - 'we trust that you have been admitted, or will soon be admitted, somewhere else'. Thanks for the encouragement Penn! On 3/1/2019 at 5:47 AM, Moose#@1%$ said: Sorry to hear that! ? hopefully it wasn't your top choice. Thank you! It was sadly one of my higher choices (fan of Akeel Bilgrami's work) but there are still a couple of others to hear back from.

Moose#@1%$ Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 So,Ā anybody got an email from UMass- Amherst saying that there has been a change in status and check portal? But, when you go check there is still says status "pending update"... I'm asking this in this section because I have a strong feeling that it's a rejection and thinking maybe others have received their rejection this way?

Yeah, mine says, "As of 03/03/2019 the status of your application is Update Pending." I'm definitely assuming it's a rejection.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got the same email and portal says the same as well. If you go back and look at the email they sent it states it will take 1-2 buisness days for the formal status change to be reflected on the portal. Definitely a rejection. *Also note it is the weekend*Ā Edited March 3, 2019 by DoodleBob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear your bad news. I also applied for UMass, but I didn't receive a offer or an email which indicates a rejection. Maybe I miss something?Ā I cannot find any useful info onĀ www.spire.umass.edu with my SPIRE ID... On my website, it says: As of 03/04/2019 the status of your application isĀ Application Under Review. Explanation:Ā Your application has been forwarded to the graduate faculty in your desired program of study for their consideration. The Graduate Admissions Office is awaiting the conclusion of that review process and the program committee's recommendation in regard to your admission. Depending on the size of the applicant pool, it typically takes six to ten weeks from the application deadline for the program committee to communicate their admissions recommendations to the Graduate School. In turn the Graduate Admissions Office makes decision letters available in SPIRE within 4 business days of the receipt of the admissions recommendations.
