graspinghandsandfeet Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 Has anyone receive formal/informal acceptance into any of the NYCEP programs? I am waiting on these. I have only heard that I am waitlisted at Columbia, still waiting on the others.
LongGraduatedStudent Posted February 25, 2011 Author Posted February 25, 2011 I got a CUNY rejection on the 18th, I know the NYU information is being released tomorrow (25th). In the morning, I will be either very happy or very sad.

tanshp Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 Oh no. Now I'm really nervous. Back to frantically trying to finish a paper and continually procrastinating with grad cafe. I got a CUNY rejection on the 18th, I know the NYU information is being released tomorrow (25th). In the morning, I will be either very happy or very sad.
LongGraduatedStudent Posted February 25, 2011 Author Posted February 25, 2011 (edited) I was rejected from CUNY on the 18th also. Is there any validity to the no interview means rejection at NYU rumor?? I was interviewed. I don't know if it is valid, but it could be, dunno. My understanding is that CUNY has very little money (think about it, it isn't even a state school), so getting rejected there probably means nothing in relation to NYU.

This actually makes me feel a little better about the CUNY rejection. What I heard/read was that there were 10 people interviewed for NYU and from that they were going to pick 4 for Bio Anth. I have no idea if it's true or not. Good luck! I'll keep my fingers crossed that you get in.

monkeybrains403 Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 To clarify - CUNY is actually part of the state school funding system in NYS. They receive the same money, it comes out of the same state offices and is regulated by the same state administrators as SUNY. NYCEP is actually run mainly out of CUNY. They have a big chunk of IGERT money. The CUNY side of NYCEP doesn't accept many students. It's really hard to get in. Best wishes to you all. I hope you got acceptances to the places you want to go.
