pinkoats Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Does any one have any info on when and how phd applicants will be notified by SUNY Albany this year? Previous years' notifications are spotty/all over the place on the results board.

augustquail Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 i think they are on mid-winter/spring break... Today is the first day they are back from break. My guess is they'll notifying this week or the next.
pinkoats Posted March 2, 2011 Author Posted March 2, 2011 Oh man. Albany is pretty much my last chance this year, and I am just dying to know!
augustquail Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 (edited) I was told that notifications are going out this week, and that Albany saw a very large increase in applications this season. Good luck to you guys! Edited March 2, 2011 by augustquail

augustquail Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Thanks - do you have any idea how they are going out? No, sorry! My guess is via email or phone...
ssundva Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 I was told that notifications are going out this week, and that Albany saw a very large increase in applications this season. Good luck to you guys! So...has anybody heard anything?
QuentinComp Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 So...has anybody heard anything? Still waiting...
QuentinComp Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 no news here either. I'm wondering if it would pay to send them an e-mail, or just continue to hang tight. Being patient is sooooooo hard!
pinkoats Posted March 8, 2011 Author Posted March 8, 2011 Seriously. I almost emailed, but I already bugged them a bunch when my transcripts were missing, and I don't want to be THAT person.
pinkoats Posted March 9, 2011 Author Posted March 9, 2011 (edited) A rejection has popped up on the board. Anyone have any info? Edited March 9, 2011 by pinkoats
QuentinComp Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 A rejection has popped up on the board. Anyone have any info? I caught that too, but it says for creative writing. I applied for lit.
tinycat Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 I caught that too, but it says for creative writing. I applied for lit. My friend her from a POI there in early feb, but decisions are, I think still officially forthcoming.
QuentinComp Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 My friend her from a POI there in early feb, but decisions are, I think still officially forthcoming. Was your friend a literature or a CW applicant? The deadline for apps (for lit at least) was January 15th, so early February seems a little early to hear back. If this sounds defensive, it's just because I am starting to get anxious. Tell your friend I said congrats!
QuentinComp Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Ok, so there is now an acceptance on the board - I am wondering if anyone has any more information? Thanks
QuentinComp Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 I just checked my app status and a decision was available. I'm out! Oh no! I am so sorry! I just checked mine, and nothing has changed. I have a hunch that those accepted have been notified though. I will be checking obsessively. Inafuturelife, if you have any more places to hear from, I hope it's good news.
pinkoats Posted March 10, 2011 Author Posted March 10, 2011 Oh man. It looks like the end is nigh. If I email to ask my status do you think I should email the English dept. coordinator or the graduate admissions assistant? Oh, and congrats on your other positive responses, Inafuturelife.

If I email to ask my status do you think I should email the English dept. coordinator or the graduate admissions assistant? Oh, and congrats on your other positive responses, Inafuturelife. I would say graduate admissions assistant. Are you going to e-mail? I'm wondering if I should too.
pinkoats Posted March 10, 2011 Author Posted March 10, 2011 Do we check our status on applyyourself or someplace else? I just checked my app status and a decision was available. I'm out!
pinkoats Posted March 10, 2011 Author Posted March 10, 2011 Thanks for being so helpful! it was on applyyourself. status said "decision available" and the link to the PDF rejection letter was at the bottom.
QuentinComp Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Thanks for being so helpful! Ahhh mine still says nothing. I have been obsessively checking. Wondering if I should e-mail them or not. Ahh this process sucks.
pinkoats Posted March 10, 2011 Author Posted March 10, 2011 Agreed. I just looked on the grad admissions website, and it says they will not release decisions over phone or email...
QuentinComp Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Agreed. I just looked on the grad admissions website, and it says they will not release decisions over phone or email... Oh really? Dear Albany, TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON! Sincerely, Anxious applicant.
