I applied for Language Literacy and Culture PhD program at Berkeley. The deadline was Dec 3rd. Did anyone hear anything from the admissions committee?

Polisci had a Dec. 2 deadline and I have not heard from them. I don't know how comparable the applications to staff ratios are between the departments, but I'd be surprised to hear about acceptances any earlier than Feb.

I called in on Monday, and a lady who works there told me no one's application has been reviewed yet. All applications are being sent this Friday, Jan 14th.She is also the only lady doing all applications for all departments.

Educ2011, which program did you apply to? Thank you for sharing that info!

I applied to the Social and Cultural studies PhD program, and haven't heard anything yet either.

I did speak with one of the Professors who is on the Admissions Comm though, and she seemed super nice- not that that means anything!

I talked to her in October and she told me out right that she was on the Admissions Committee, which was a bit nerve racking!

Good luck everyone!!!

Sadly no, although I believe we should be hearing back soon base on last year postings.

Hopefully we'll hear back within the next couple of weeks....arrrrgh! The waiting is driving me crazy!!! I am obsessively checking my email every 5 minutes!

Good luck everyone!

Just spoke to someone in the LLC Dept. Apparently the process is a little slower this year than last, so notifications might be a little delayed for accepted candidates.

Was it someone in admissions? Thank you for sharing. Oh well....good luck to everyone!

Also, when I checked the Admissions website, it seemed to indicate that online application notifications are not enabled, which means that we'll receive paper letters. Does anyone else know if this is what we can expect?

the waiting is making me a little nutty!!

Apparently, the professors in LLC will traditionally call accepted candidates before official notifications are sent out by admissions. Admissions is not required to send out such notifications (via snail mail) until the end of February :-/

I saw in the Results section that someone had posted an acceptance to an Education PhD program, but the program is not specified.

If you're out there, CONGRATULATIONS! Which program did you get into?

I emailed the adcom about the status. Rochele replied the faculty are reviewing the application and the result will be sent out starting from mid-Feb.

Good luck, everyone.

no news yet. hopefully we will hear soon. i'm tempted to call Admissions, but it is only just February! good luck to all!

Did you send email to adcom or check the website status?

I saw someone just posted a rejection in the results section for the POME concentration. They emailed and were told that they were not one of 14 people recommended for admission. Apparently notifications of acceptances have already been sent out for this concentration. not sure about other programs though. aaaaaaaah!!! the wait is driving me completely nuts.
