lkaitlyn Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Hi everyone! I figured someone should start this thread eventually. Hope everyone is doing well/relaxing as application deadlines pass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliAcademic Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Hello! I've applied to UCLA's Gender Studies PhD. Excited to hear back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lkaitlyn Posted January 21, 2020 Author Share Posted January 21, 2020 Same! It turns out other gender studies people, for whatever reason, have this year congregated in the Waiting It Out thread (now a little bit down the page because it's been quieter recently). Join us in commiserating there! No one seems to have heard from UCLA yet. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soupnazi Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Are any of ya'll currently enrolled somewhere? I'm an undergraduate (at UCLA), and I'm finding it SO hard to focus, waiting for these results--especially those coming from UCLA Gender Studies!

Same! Or refreshing the results page. Also, congrats on your UCI acceptance! I have my interview tomorrow.

lkaitlyn Posted January 29, 2020 Author Share Posted January 29, 2020 (edited) Thank you! Rooting for you. At least in Sociology, the interviews were totally informal — they'd already made admissions decisions — so I certainly would take it seriously, but not stress! I'm literally responding to this thread in the middle of a class. I'm so distracted, it's ridiculous. Edited January 29, 2020 by lkaitlyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soupnazi Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Thank you! I was feeling very casual about it for a while, but now I'm beginning to feel some nerves. Of course, they're not manifesting in a productive way; instead, I'm fixating on wardrobe choices. So, that's cool. As far as I know, the decisions are not yet made, but "finalists" have been invited for this recruitment visit/interview thing. Honestly, I was nervous that I might get a rejection right before this recruitment visit and that it would impact my confidence. So, I suppose it's a good thing that I have no news as of yet.

Are you referring to UCLA Gender Studies? Have they historically offered recruitment visits to every finalist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The recruitment visit is for UC Irvine (also a different interdisciplinary program). Edited January 30, 2020 by soupnazi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliAcademic Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Apparently UCLA has notified for Gender Studies on 1/30 over the past two years...fingers crossed yall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lkaitlyn Posted January 31, 2020 Author Share Posted January 31, 2020 I love you all but if anyone here is posting on the Results page about UCLA asking when it will come out, please ask questions in the forums (here!) instead. It's giving me a heart attack to see UCLA on the Results page when people are actually just asking a question meant for the forums. ♥️ But in answer to that question, it seems like no one has heard. Enough of us have applied that I'd imagine someone would post in the Results area if they got accepted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't posted the rejection on the Results board until it's official but sounds like that's what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masthana Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Anyone got news from Rutgers WGS or UCSC Feminist Studies? Emailed them both about my application status and no answer yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowkey2020 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 (edited) I had an interview with Rutgers back in January. I was told I'd hear back within two to three weeks. I emailed them two weeks later (mid-February) to check in and was told (from a faculty member within the department) that they are still waiting on the graduate school to inform them of financial aid packages and how many people they can admit. She said she would let me know as soon as she hears anything. I am still waiting, so I doubt any admits have gone out yet.

Things probably got slowed down because of the COVID-19 thing going on— keep your hopes up! I applied and have not heard back so I know they haven't sent rejections!!
