I have narrowed my decision between UT Austin and USC. I have rejected all other offers. If you are on the waitlist for UT Austin or USC I will probably make my decision by April 8. What was the deadline given by USC to make your decision? I’m just asking to know how much longer I need to wait for others also to make their decisions regarding USC.

Here are a list of schools who have agreed to this universal deadline according to the "April 15th Resolution": https://cgsnet.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/CGS_April15_Resolution_Feb2022Revision11.pdf woketaco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew I’d have to wait because I applied on Jan 30th which is very late compared to everyone else. So I guess it’s up to my luck now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also strongly implied that I would probably be able to get a GA position after enrolling (although from what I’ve seen, their GAs seem to just get a regular salary, not tuition remission). While I still probably won’t be attending (it would still be more expensive than UT or UNC without funding), I’m just excited to finally get an actual big funding offer. They sent me an amazingly detailed note that referenced the personal details of my statement of purpose, writing sample, and even connected me to some professors I should talk to who share my interests. Very excited to look into the program more! Now just waiting for UCLA?? Hi! I wanted to know what was the deadline given to you to accept Pratt’s offer. I might’ve been waitlisted so I want to know how much longer I need to wait. :’( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you did not already receive an email concerning acceptance/waitlist/rejection decision you might want to contact the admission team. The April 15 deadline is the deadline for those who are already accepted into the program to decide if they want to accept or reject admittance into the program.

The April 15 deadline is the deadline for those who are already accepted into the program to decide if they want to accept or reject admittance into the program. I sent two emails two weeks ago. Grad admissions replied saying that they have already completed my academic evaluation, now I just have to wait for the department. Then I emailed Sarah Esquivel and she said that my application is under review and I should receive a decision in the following weeks. This was two weeks ago so I don’t know what to think of it anymore. I don’t want to pester them but I don’t understand why it’s taking this long.

I think the reply sounds positive—Actually, if you received a reply, that means something positive (from my perspective)! I know some schools have their funding decision making separated from admissions so that will certainly take a longer time. Not sure if that's the case with UMD. I once emailed to one professor that I'd love to work with and they replied basically the same (still making the decision, etc.), and I received an update very soon after their reply. Good luck with you! Thanks! This is super helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTreePrince Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 Just received a rather generic acceptance email from UBC. No mention of any funding or personalization at all really, but the portal says I have an offer. They’re giving a month for my decision which is more than some other Canadian programs woketaco and planningapplicant 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

urban_geographer_planner Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 @woketacoI think that's just the official "yes, I'm coming" form that you have to fill out (+ any financial docs or official transcripts they require) - shouldn't be much additional work! woketaco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
