woonitza Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I am wait-listed (2nd waiting list, accepted at another two where I have to wait on funding; rejected from UCB and Cornell so far; expecting bad news from NYU and having couple of more anthro apps). Having in mind how chaotic my application process was with all those supplementary forms, I'm quite surprised I made it this far. They told me the ranking was "confidential", but that the I am waitlisted for a funded position. Anyone applied there? Any results? Anyone rejecting their offer? BTW. I hate their Minerva system. Can't access it and the tech support won't help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, I bet you do. Just keep on keepin' on. Donald Asher's awesome book, Graduate Admissions Essays: Write Your Way into the Graduate School of Your Choice, has some valuable tips for getting oneself off waitlists. Your university or local public library probably has a copy or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't faced any issues with the Minerva, and the graduate coordinator at AHCS has been very professional so far. My status still says Ready for Review. I have also applied to the Sociology program at Queen's. No news yet also. Hope you get your spot Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
