Ashley Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 Did anyone here apply to Northeastern? Any ideas on when they will have decisions? I did. No idea...but the deadline was feb 15 so I'm guessing a little later in march
Abeja Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 If anyone applied to University of Arizona and Vanderbilt- admissions at both schools told me letters will be arriving by next week.
slp24 Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 Just got an email about scheduling an interview with the University of Tennessee-Knoxville! Very excited and very nervous! What should I expect and how should I prepare? This is my first grad school interview.
SLP_419 Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 Just receieved an email from University of Washington to check supplemental app for notification: ACCEPTANCE to medSLP!! Good luck to everyone!
slpundergrad Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 (edited) Did anyone else get a weird email from Vanderbilt? It pretty much says that letters will be sent out "no later than Thursday, March 7, 2011." What is up with this date? I feel like I'm going crazy! EDIT: just got an email correcting the date. Letters will be mailed March 10th. Good luck to everyone!!! Edited March 4, 2011 by slpundergrad
ingolstadt Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 It looks like I'm going to grad school next year! I just got my letter from Emerson 5 minutes ago!
slpundergrad Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 I got that too. I'm inclined to think it's a good sign. The email was supposed to be blind, but wasn't, so I counted 60 recipients. That falls in line with admissions practices of some schools to accept about double the applicants they expect to enroll, so 60 accepted for a class of about 30. Otherwise, why wouldn't we be on a declined list with 300+ other recepients? Also, she said mail will go out no later than 3/10 you should contact her by email if you haven't heard by 3/11. I'm thinking this is likely to notify everyone quickly so that we can start arranging campus visits, which she said start 3/18. I could be really fishing here, or completely wrong, but I don't think so. This is pretty much what I was thinking. I am really confused if the letters are going out on the 10th, how are we supposed to magically have them by the 11th? After all of this I'm going to be crushed if it is a rejeciton!

Does anyone know how many people are usually accepted for the program every year?
slpundergrad Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 Does anyone know how many people are usually accepted for the program every year? According to ASHA 41 people last cycle.

I don't think I'd jump to that conclusion yet, by any means. Mine also lists all recipients, and it looks like they're just sorted alphabetically by last name, at least from what it seems like in mine.
tayfray Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 It looks like I'm going to grad school next year! I just got my letter from Emerson 5 minutes ago! I ran home to check the mail when you posted this. :)

Do you think the email was sent to all applicants - just in segments so that each list of names could fit in each email??
SLP_419 Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 Acceptance to Northwestern as well today is turning out to be a great day!! It seems like a lot of schools sent out letters today! Still waiting on the Boston schools... (Mgh/BU)
HowNowBrownCow Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 Do you think the email was sent to all applicants - just in segments so that each list of names could fit in each email?? I see now, that makes sense. I guess it really is up in the air.
slpundergrad Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 I see now, that makes sense. I guess it really is up in the air. Yep... Well, we will know in about a week either way.
katiekg Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 I think so. When I received mine (which I prematurely thought was an acceptance because they used the word "delightful"), all of the addresses were for letters g-i i believe.

seyeau Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Acceptance to Northwestern as well today is turning out to be a great day!! It seems like a lot of schools sent out letters today! Still waiting on the Boston schools... (Mgh/BU) I haven't gotten anything on my Northwestern status page yet, and I'm going crazy waiting! Grats on your acceptance! If you wouldn't mind sharing stats, I'd appreciate it!
mscongeniality1 Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 I think so. When I received mine (which I prematurely thought was an acceptance because they used the word "delightful"), all of the addresses were for letters g-i i believe. Hmm...mine was all blind (I can't see any recipients) and I only received the incorrect email, not the correction. Maybe I should take that as a bad sign? My friend who also replied to Vanderbilt received 4 emails from Penny Welch in 10 minutes. It was bizarre.
hbaudrey Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 If anyone applied to University of Arizona and Vanderbilt- admissions at both schools told me letters will be arriving by next week. How did you receive your acceptance from UW-Madison? And Congrats!!!
hbaudrey Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 I ran home to check the mail when you posted this. :) Congratulations on your acceptance! Did you hear via snail mail or email?
SLP_419 Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 I haven't gotten anything on my Northwestern status page yet, and I'm going crazy waiting! Grats on your acceptance! If you wouldn't mind sharing stats, I'd appreciate it! Thanks! Double major (3.84 overall, 4.0 in both majors), 1350 GRE, lots of volunteer/research experience good luck!!

Maybe I should take that as a bad sign? My friend who also replied to Vanderbilt received 4 emails from Penny Welch in 10 minutes. It was bizarre. My roommate also only received one email. Her last name is in the s-z range. I also had 4 emails from Penny in 10 minutes, but my last name starts with A...I think the whole thing is probably just the fluke. It doesn't seem like they've separated accepted from rejected in their listserv yet.
SLP_419 Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Just got accepted to UW's MedSLP program! Yay! Congrats!!

It doesn't seem like they've separated accepted from rejected in their listserv yet. Ah, yes, that seems consistent, since I have an S last name. My friend with the 4 emails has a P last name. I think I'm just being silly and reading into it way too much!
