2012 Applicants

[Norman G]

When should I be hearing back from the master's programs, my last deadline was Feb 15th.

I applied to: WI-Milwaukee, Texas Tech, NIU, Univ. of Montana, Houston, A&M, Brandeis, Colorado State, Western Michigan.

If I haven't heard back does this mean I've been rejected?

Thx. :]

I do know that Colorado State and NIU have sent updates via "myNIU email" and "myCSU email." In short, to access these notifications check the email account that was created when you submitted your application.

Has anyone at heard from Columbia at all?

(...Aside from the rejection posted on the results list... sorry about that...)

Boston U was one of the 8 schools I applied to for this coming fall for a Philosophy ph.d. I have been rejected from 7 but have not heard back yet from BU. Strangely, it's been over three weeks since I heard from the last school and it's now almost April. Anyone have an idea about what's going on with BU?

Is anyone still waiting on UCLA? Do we know what's going with them, or there an informal waitlist or something?

I applied to Columbia. They told me I had been rejected from PhD and was being considered for MA on March 1. April 1 I asked if they knew anything, and they didn't. Still haven't heard but not waiting on it anymore.

That's a nice list of schools you're applying to! There's a few others in Canada that have good ethics and continental-type departments: Ryerson Univeristy, Memorial U. of Newfoundland, and Guelph are al really excellent schools.
