K630 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Is it just me or does getting into a program seem near impossible? The stats people are putting up, that have been accepted, are so impressive. I feel like if you don't have an amazing GPA and GRE scores, you're not getting in anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayness54 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Congratulations to everyone who has received acceptances! As for me I am stilllll fuckingggg waitinggggg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gretel Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Same here. Solidarity. "Good things come to those who wait." Yes, I'm going to quote a trite saying in an attempt to make people like us feel better. I'm just happy to hear that some people are getting in places. I was starting to think that nobody would get in anywhere. Congratulations to everyone who has received acceptances!

It must be impossible to get into a program (at least for me). I didn't do poorly in any of my core classes and I've been a part of research projects, taught kids, worked for a while, and babysit kids with DD.. Doesn't seem to help.

I feel like if you don't have an amazing GPA and GRE scores, you're not getting in anywhere. I think it just depends on location and where you apply. I have had 2 interviews so far, with okay credentials. Definitely not what other people have been posting, but I also looked on EdFind to decide where to apply. Keep your hopes up!

HowNowBrownCow Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Ok, does everyone have an admissions decision box in ecommon for emerson? I don't have an enrollment box, so does that mean I am rejected right away or not accepted during teh first waive of admissions? These mind games are torture!!! Congrats to everyone who made it in! If they're right about 630+ applicants this year, then you really did well to gain admission. I wouldn't worry if you don't have an admission box. Several people have stated that Emerson is only half through reviewing applications, so if you don't have the admission box, that likely means they just haven't reviewed your application yet. I have the box but when I click on it, it says a decision is not available at this time. I'm trying to take that as meaning they added the tab to prepare to post my decision and it just needs updating, not as any sign of admission or rejection.

slp24 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 I hate waiting too! I'm home for Spring Break and driving my boyfriend and family crazy with my obsessiveness over hearing something. I hope we hear soon. Good luck! My spring break is next week and I am sure my obsessiveness is going to carry over... From Grad Cafe last year it looks like people heard from UF and Alabama this week or next, so I will be checking my mailbox everyday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not what other people have been posting, but I also looked on EdFind to decide where to apply. Keep your hopes up! I applied to Cincinnati and thought I had a pretty good shot, but then I saw from the results board the stats of someone who got in ("3.95 GPA, 560 V, 690 Q, 5.0 AW"). I was just shocked at how high the stats were for Cincinnati. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tayfray Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 I called Emerson to ask about enrollment deposit thing, and the guy said that he can't tell us over the phone, but the decisions will be coming out by mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the admission box and not the enrollment box too and I was starting to fear the worst! I am trying to remain positive and it would be so much easier if I knew that everyone who had applied had the admissions decision box and they had just added the enrollment box to the first waive of people??? UGHH I don't know I tried to email the admission's office, but they didn't really have any information for me. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dd2014 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Hey guys, Congrats to everyone who has been accepted to a program and good luck to those who are waiting! I start the application process in the fall but I was just wondering if anyone applied to LSU, UGA, or Auburn? I've started looking at programs but I haven't seen anyone on this site mention any of these schools. I was just curious to see if anyone knew anything about these programs/want to attend these schools! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squaresquared Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Has anyone harassed any of the schools in Texas to find out if we should be hearing anything soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katiekg Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 (edited) I go to UF currently and from what I have heard they should be sending them out this week. Have you heard anything from UTK? I am too scared to call any schools because I don't wanna bother them. My spring break is next week and I am sure my obsessiveness is going to carry over... From Grad Cafe last year it looks like people heard from UF and Alabama this week or next, so I will be checking my mailbox everyday!

The stats people are putting up, that have been accepted, are so impressive. I feel like if you don't have an amazing GPA and GRE scores, you're not getting in anywhere. I think it depends a lot on the school people are applying for. If you look at the USNEWS rankings, schools in the top 25 are going to have higher student stats than other schools. Obviously rankings aren't everything, but I am sure students with higher stats are more likely to apply to higher ranked schools. However, my friend had average stats and got accepted to UT-Dallas (in the top 25), so I am sure it also depends on the other students applying to the same school. WHO KNOWS! Has anyone harassed any of the schools in Texas to find out if we should be hearing anything soon? I'm not sure which Texas schools you applied to, but I know a few people who heard back from UT-Dallas. They did rolling admissions so two of my classmates heard back in January! The other mid-February... Edited March 4, 2011 by SLP_419 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ingolstadt Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Okay, so on my Emerson eCommon account, when I go to Submit Your Enrollment Deposit, that page says "Congrats, you're in!" but the Admission Decision tab says nothing. I wonder if this is an admission decision from the department that just didn't get sent to the other tab... or if maybe the graduate school accepted me and the department hasn't decided... or if it's just a generic greeting on everyone's account. I'd love for it to be the first but I haven't gotten anything through the mail or my email. :-\ I haven't heard back from anyone yet. I saw a UConn rejection on the results page so I'm getting frantic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katiekg Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 For anyone applying to UF, my roommate just let me know that she got into the Au.D program. So I'm sure SLP is next! I also currently attend UF and I've heard that it'll be this week or next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squaresquared Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 does anyone know if Iowa is done with decisions? or how they give out their decisions? I never heard either way yet, but noticed there were acceptances/waitlists on the results board. I'm debating shooting them an email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katiekg Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Just got an email about scheduling an interview with the University of Tennessee-Knoxville! Very excited and very nervous!
