wreckofthehope Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 Anyone had any info about Santa Barbara? Yes - what is going on there?! I have not heard a peep... and haven't seen any results on the board.
Raputa Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 (edited) I applied to UCSB & haven't heard anything. No change on the website either. Sheesh. I just checked the results for 2010: a couple acceptances in early Feb & the rest in early March. So, maybe next week? Edited February 25, 2011 by Raputa
Glossed Posted March 1, 2011 Author Posted March 1, 2011 Looks like there are two acceptances posted on the board. Anyone care to claim? Any information you could share?
margate Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 I got an e-mail late last night to check the website. I couldn't find any real information about the cohort or funding there, though there was an implication that contact by the department itself will follow.

alexdelarge Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 Same story here--not a lot of information. Anyone hear a rejection or anythign else?
noxrosa Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 I was just accepted, fully funded! I've been rejected by 10 places so far and had given up hope, and so the acceptance was so unexpected it made me literally cry for 10 minutes (too much info for Grad Cafe? I'm beyond caring!).
Glossed Posted March 6, 2011 Author Posted March 6, 2011 I got a call also, very very excited about it. Anyone attending the perspective student day?

noxrosa Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 Thanks for your nice words folks! Glossed, I for one won't be at the admitted students weekend as I live out of the country (although I'm Californian, so I already know what a wonderful place SB is).
The Faun Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 Hi all, I'm applying to MA & MA/PhD programs in Religious Studies, and am waiting to hear from UCSB. I just got accepted at Claremont yesterday, and they only had a month to review my application, whereas UCSB's deadline for my department was Dec 1st. Wondering if there are any other UCSB Religious Studies MA/PhD candidates/hopefuls out there... a friend who got rejected last year told me he didn't hear from UCSB until "mid-late March". Not sure if I want to make Claremont wait that long... oY!
noxrosa Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 More info for anyone who's curious: They expect an entering cohort of 10 or 11 students this year, and they admitted 22. They've cut the number of admittances in the last couple years so they could offer funding to more students (and get more competitive it was implied).
