frodooftheshire Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Hello everyone. I was wondering if anyone has heard from this program - PhD English at ODU, particularly the part-time, distance option. I saw one acceptance and one rejection come through almost a month ago, presumably for onsite with funding, but nothing since. I'm starting to wonder if they're going to contact me one way or another, although I know they have until April 15. Thanks in advance for any information you can pass along!

haphazardmomma Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I'm in the same boat! I had my app in earlier than the deadline, so that's just making the waiting even worse. I was hoping to hear today just because I hypothesized that maybe full-time onsite applicants heard by the end of February and part-time, distance applicants would hear at the end of March. So far, no news. April 15th seems so far off! Best of luck to you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frodooftheshire Posted March 29, 2021 Author Share Posted March 29, 2021 Thanks for replying! It's good to know that I'm not the only one waiting (although, simultaneously, I'm sorry you have to wait too!). I had a very similar thought about the timing, and I'm sad that we didn't get the news we were looking for. Here's hoping it's this week! Best of luck to you as well!

midnightdreary Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Have room for a third in your boat? I'm also a part-time, distance applicant, though I had read the silence as more of an implicit welcome to a waiting list. But I prefer your theory of a tiered admissions process. I was unaware of the Apr 15 deadline, so it's good to know that an end to the wait is near(ish). Best of luck to you, haphazard and frodo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frodooftheshire Posted March 31, 2021 Author Share Posted March 31, 2021 Welcome to the boat, Midnight! Misery loves company, I guess? Best of luck to you as well! Here's hoping we all get news soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haphazardmomma Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Well, I emailed Dr. Phillips on Monday to ask for a status update (only time I've contacted her about my application), and she said they planned to have all decisions out by Wednesday...yesterday. So, maybe by Friday?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frodooftheshire Posted April 5, 2021 Author Share Posted April 5, 2021 I did end up hearing last week. I hope everyone else did too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
