Avocado_town Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) Friday still has several hours left here, but yeah, I was expecting more news today. I haven't lost the faith of hearing something from NYU today, though. Here I am two hours ahead of Eastern time and on other days I have received notifications at the end of the day.

Last year some Yale acceptances were posted on early Feburary but most of the results, both acceptances and rejections came together on Feb 22. So are those early acceptances trolls? Or it's the way Yale releases results: first some early acceptance and than the rest of the results... Expand I think those results are fake. I checked last year's thread and people were dicussing the auntenticity of those early Feb results and it seems that nobody claimed them. It seems that the same thing is happening this year ?. BTW, people were already on page 63 of the forum last year on February 4! Edited February 4, 2022 by Avocado_town CapTipps and LatinAmericanFootball 2
Bosox Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 Hi, everyone! A long lurker to the forum and results page. I've notified the University of Minnesota that I'll be declining my offer and the University of Virginia that I'd like to be taken off of the waiting list (IR for both). Hope this helps substantively and intangibly for those in the waiting game. Hang in there! modesteffect, PoliCommsGirl, Lighthopes and 1 other 4

Also, how did you declined de offer? I'm planning to decline some of mine but I don't have a clue how to politely do that LOL Thanks

ballofstress Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 Is the Illinois acceptance legit? Anyone claiming it?
zoooxu Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 A quick question: do we have a discord page, and if we don't, why not create one?

I live on discord half the day - but it seems to me like it's more of a gaming and geek kind of plattform. zoooxu 1
zoooxu Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 Both slack and discord work for me! I think a chat platform is good because 1) we can chat in a less formal way to make each other feel better in this long wait, and 2) we can connect better there. The Inbox system on grad cafe is super user-unfriendly. This being said, we definitely should continue to post questions and stuff here. Chats move too fast and will likely drown important questions/comments. These are just some of my thoughts...I just want a space to chat with others. DanTheGrad, CapTipps and Gryffindor50points 2 1
