belief_in_jerks Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 (edited) Just received an email from Notre Dame saying I was divided into their "hold" pool - does anyone know anything about the pool, like how many people are in it, is there still any chance of being accepted, etc.?

SleeplessInSomewhere Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 (edited) FYI to those who were interviewed by CUNY: They have finished finalizing the list of students they intend to extend offers to, are waiting on final approval from the administration and will be sending offers out early next week Edited February 2, 2021 by SleeplessInSomewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PopStudies Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I heard back from Berkeley Demography. The department is making decisions right now, but it could still be a few weeks before we hear anything. socszn_28 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of luck for it. Did you only apply to the program in Shanghai or solo in NY? In Shanghai. Students of the program will spend their first year in NYC and then go back to Shanghai for conducting research - this is what I learnt from the page of the sociology department Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming that is the case, because it would be rather unfair to extend an offer to someone who didn't go through the interview process and for example reject someone else who did. But I would recommend you email them just to make sure and get a definite answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the information! If someone gets accepted without an interview then the department would not have done interviews in general... do you mean you know of someone who got accepted at a place that did interviews without having to do one himself/herself? if so, I'd be really curious to know where this happened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a couple of years ago so it may not necessarily apply to this cycle. Anyway, I sent the email to CUNY Sociology department to inquire about interview and admissions to make sure about what I asked you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicolesaparty Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Anyone heard from UChicago? I had an interview last week and I am dying.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sippingjoy Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Hey y'all! Congrats to those who have received acceptances. For those who are still waiting or waitlisted, like myself, I'm sending positive vibes and good thoughts! I am wondering if anyone applied to UC Davis, Riverside, or San Diego? Is anyone familiar with admission procedures or have any news about when prospective students might hear back? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m going crazy. yes, same here - I was told it could be up to a month because the graduate school had to process the department's decisions, but today the letter I got was unofficial, from the department itself.

socapp21 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I also interviewed at Chicago last week and was told 2-3 weeks, but seems like they've sent out unofficial offers sooner...didn't get one Based on past years, it looks like most of the acceptances are sent out in one day.

Might be worthwhile to check and see if he/she/they know if all the offers have gone out, and gives you an opportunity to also ask for feedback if your application wasn't successful. Keep us posted if you do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
