My sense is that they tend to have very small cohorts. Thank you! I'm not sure, but I definitely plan to ask when I talk to them. Will keep you in the loop. heterotopia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shake829 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 I’ve been avoiding logging into my portals for a few days. Logged in today and had a rejection waiting from Chicago that was dated 2/4. Never even received an email notification . . . if you’re like me and trying not to check, it seems that the results are there even though there’s no email. why_tho, Submarina, medievalpeasant and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shake829 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 I’ll also never understand why programs with obvious shortlists (i.e., conducting interviews) keep the rest of us in the dark for so long. If you know you’re not going to interview us, why not just put us out of our misery early? Hard times!, PlacingJane1994 and Submarina 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry but I don't know what to say or what might help at this point! I am as miserable... I haven't heard from a single place and would love to stay off these portals since I am having horrid dreams even in my waking hours. But habits die hard!

robertsona_grad Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 irvine asked for a reupload of my transcript and whereas that's a big enough part of a grad school app that I can't at all guarantee anything man it feels like it'd be H E L L J A I L not to get accepted thereafter lol. fingers crossed I guess Submarina, Hard times!, forgottenworks and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I submitted an unofficial transcript to a school accidentally and when I asked them about this they were just like "we don't need your official transcript unless we accept you," uh, so..?!

robertsona_grad Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 well what's funny is I applied in 2020 for f21 unsuccessfully and my transcript is the exact same since then and the website was like "yea just keep that one" and put a check next to it but I guess they needed me to upload it separately so tbc it's a little different from asking me for an upgrade to an offish transcript still kinda optimistic though. kinda.

mostlygoo Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Kept thinking "I just want to hear from *someone*" and then got my Hopkins rejection today... Be careful what you wish for and all that, but I think I'm happier knowing than not knowing. Maybe? A little bummed because it was probably the best fit, at least in my head. Already recalibrating. Still a chance I get in somewhere, but I want to feel positive about the fall, so I'm thinking about what I can do (and what I'd enjoy doing) that would also make me a stronger candidate next time. Congrats to those with acceptances already! Hard times! and PlacingJane1994 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

medievalpeasant Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Does anyone have idea what's going on with UoOregon? ? It's been quite for a few days, I'm wondering if that's bad news or if they're just moving slowly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
