Nothing is too good for you; you worked hard and identified schools. You put the work in and put yourself out there; you took a shot at yourself. Don't let people you have not met yet decide if you are too good or not for something. You got this! JingHuang, Lizesmore and Tia_2023 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24App Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Can anyone claim the Stanford acceptance? It is a bit isolated considering the previous releasing time for acceptance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evelyn27 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 I've seen several USC sociology acceptances from different websites, including reddit, gradcafe and another platform. It seems that they only send acceptance letters and do not send rejection or waitlist to other applicants, which is confusing... Did anyone receive anything?? From previous records of timeline, it seems like their "tradition". Not respected to applicants and professional as expected... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesecrethistory Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Hi, I have seen one UIC acceptance so far, has anyone gotten rejections or any other notifications? Also, anything from CU Boulder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YOYOK Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 I saw 2 people were waitlisted for Boston College PhD program, and I'm still waiting to hear back. I'm assuming that I'm going to be rejected, but I haven't seen anything aside from the 2 waitlist posts and I'm kind of hoping they're fake, so then I might still have a chance.

However, I still haven't gotten any news from Stanford. Is this normal? Do they send out waitlist/rejections this long after acceptances, or are they accepting in waves?

JohnnySmith Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 (edited) Hi all! I applied to six Sociology PhD programs: Harvard Berkeley Stanford Yale Princeton Columbia I just received my first decision. I was DENIED from Stanford, today, on January 31st, 2024. But I feel great!! My submission was super competitive and I'm very proud of the quality of work I produced. Excited for the next decisions to roll out! Good luck to everyone!

Okay, not to harp on this… but it seems like Stanford sent out their acceptances a week ago and rejections yesterday/today. From previous years, they seem to do everything in these two batches. With that said, I still only have “Submitted” as my status in the portal. Does anyone have insight to what that means? Should I reach out to the department or just keep waiting?

CrockPotKin Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Anyone heard from UW? I've seen one acceptance so far but surprised there aren't more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sociappfl2024 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Has anyone heard back from UMass Amherst? This is my first time posting on any discussion forum on this site. Some folks have already uploaded their decisions, including two acceptances and one waitlist. It's my top choice program, and I fear I will be rejected despite being a good fit. I'm sharing my stats just for reference: 4.0 Graduate and 3.6 Undergraduate GPA; MA in Sociology funded via TA'ship for 5 semesters; Research experience including undergrad honors and master's thesis along with research assistant on two projects as an undergrad; multiple conference presentations, but no publications; co-authored paper that is a revise and resubmit, but unrelated to my research interest Here are the other schools I applied to: UPitt Florida State (in-state) Boston U Oklahoma State Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lrbss Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Hello! Has anyone heard from Princeton? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GradSchoolTony3 Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 (edited) Curious why things are fairly dead here, especially this far into the process! Applied to PhD programs at five schools. Got acceptances to UMN and Vanderbilt, waiting on Columbia, Princeton, and Georgetown. Princeton and Georgetown are PoliSci programs (I am focused on social movements so depending on the faculty I can fit into both disciplines okay). Whole process has been super nerve-wracking though I am super happy to have acceptances under my belt. Based on past years I imagine we still have a week or two before we hear from Columbia, anyone else waiting on that?

mediokra Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 I am also waiting for Columbia in addition to Harvard, Berkeley, Cornell, and MIT (HASTS program). And even though Stanford has sent out a bunch of acceptances and rejections… I’m still waiting on them too. 😩 Only one I have heard from was UPenn, which I got accepted to! Very relieved and happy with Penn, but anxiously awaiting other results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
