honkycat1 Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 being on waitlist is a kind of good news at least it's not bad. you will still have opportunities Basically: BGSU has 4 spots, they gave out 5 initial offers + 4 on the shortlist for interview.

iobaby Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I didn't apply to NCSU because I think they said the TA is really limited...I must have full funding Thats a deal breaker for me also. How did you come about this information, did you talk with them directly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natasha Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 how did you know this information? Did you ask professor directly? I am on the waitlist at USF and also want to know this kind of information Basically: BGSU has 4 spots, they gave out 5 initial offers + 4 on the shortlist for interview.

duoduo Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 No, I just checked their website. I'm currently in a program without full funding so I'm kinda know what's behind the wording. If they have the full funding they will say it in an explicit way rather than a conservative way Thats a deal breaker for me also.

paiged2 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Just to let everyone know, a fair amount of programs are moving away from the "accept everyone before they visit" model. So if that is what you here, it's not necessarily a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duoduo Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I don't get it...it's not a bad thing but not a promising thing either right?

mocha11 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Hey whitecarnation, yeah, I just heard from them today; I'm waitlisted. not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing yet.

whitecarnation Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Hmm.

mocha11 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 If you didn't get an email saying you are on the waitlist, maybe that means that they'll be sending your acceptance letter next week! Especially if you were high on the waitlist last year, I think you have a pretty good shot this year! Good luck!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynos23 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 has anyone received invites for the Georgia Tech recruitment weekend yet? i had a phone interview last week but have yet to receive their decision also has anyone phone interviewed with CUNY Baruch yet? If so, what was it like??

duoduo Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 I hope this is true... I knew some programs sent out rejections but I got nothing...but I also heard that they gave out acceptance too...so weird... good luck to everyone~ If you didn't get an email saying you are on the waitlist, maybe that means that they'll be sending your acceptance letter next week!

tj1983 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Rejected from George Mason. Got the letter in the mail Friday. Oh well, I was really hoping for G Washington anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paiged2 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 It's not "not promising." My program didn't accept anyone straight out this year... we have a small pool visiting so that they can meet us, see what our program is like, if research fits, etc. Then decisions will be made. I don't get it...it's not a bad thing but not a promising thing either right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitecarnation Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 I sure hope so. Thanks Mocha.

Natasha Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 You mean you were high on the waitlist last year but finally did not have change to get in (no one declined offers last year)? I was worried now. I am on waitlist of two schools, 2 official rejections (maybe one more next week) and I haven't heard anything from the other three (I applied 8) I was worried I would get nothing this year right now.

whitecarnation Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 @ Natasha---- One person declined last year, but they only had two spots. I believe I was 4th or 5th on the list - so I would have been next up or close. I was almost there!!!! I have really strengthened my credentials since applying last time around. I will be very disappointed if I am rejected. I hope to at least make the waitlist this year. Hopefully Mocha is right and I got accepted. I would not be worried about your admits Natasha. 2 waitlists sounds promising. I think you have a good chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i/o hopeful Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 has anyone received invites for the Georgia Tech recruitment weekend yet? i had a phone interview last week but have yet to receive their decision I've received an invite-- it's the first weekend of March, so there's definitely still time to hear back before then. I didn't have a phone interview though....who's your POI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natasha Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I know that feeling!!

v0411s Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Basically: BGSU has 4 spots, they gave out 5 initial offers + 4 on the shortlist for interview. This site was just brought to my attention by a friend of mine. I wish I would've known of it while I was actually applying to schools, but it's good to get a sense of where each school is with regards to processing applications. For BGSU, does this mean that all 9 who have a chance (5 accepted and 4 shortlisted) have already been notified? I haven't heard anything from them since the letter last month infoming me that my application had been sent to the psych department for consideration. After seeing this post, I'm guessing in this case no news is bad news for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitecarnation Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Rejected. Best of luck to those on the waitlist. I've heard they often enter their list so there's a good chance you will get in.
