grantman Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 Sorry to ruin everyones Valentine's Day, I just got word from Ohio State, they have declined my application for admission. Well this was expected I have always been a huge Buckeye fan, but I am from Ohio anyway so loyalty to OSU is almost obligatory.
Megan Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 Do you think schools may not be notifying today because of valentine's day? It's always horrible to get a rejection, but it would be especially annoying today. But an acceptance would be the best V-Day present EVER! non humilis mulier 1
wuerzburg Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 Do you think schools may not be notifying today because of valentine's day? It's always horrible to get a rejection, but it would be especially annoying today. In the cold hearted world of political science there is no room for romance non humilis mulier 1

I hope I get a confectionary acceptance heart that says, "Be Mine" with an impressive chocolate covered strawberry funding package. non humilis mulier 1

I'm still waiting get word from OSU, but at this point I'm going to call it an assumed rejection. Oh well..
non humilis mulier Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 lol. I think we should lobby -- schools shouldn't be allowed to send out rejections today. non humilis mulier 1

PoliSci27 Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 Someone posted an OSU rejection? grantman mentioned it a little earlier in the thread. Sorry to hear about it!
blackcoffee64 Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 I just got out of a 2 hour history of east asian civ exam...you guys are killing me
Ironheel!! Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 lol you inspired me, here's what I came up with: Uncertain for me, Acceptance, Rejection is Worrying indeed District Poetics. Spend my V-day at BusBoys I guess.
balledematch Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 I just got out of a meeting and saw that a bunch of new posts were added. Naturally, I assumed that every one of my remaining schools had notified, and had completely ruined my holiday. Luckily, it was just a poetry slam. Whew. You guys are DA BEST. whirlibird 1

Surely, it is their loss. whirlibird 1
iwouldpreferanonymity Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 So, UCSD just scared me. They sent an e-mail with the subject line "This e-mail contains a link to important information regarding your application to Ph.D. of Political Science, UCSD." As I had already been denied, this note caught me be surprise. For a moment, I thought that they had reconsidered. Alas, they had not. I logged in to their application system, checked the messages tab as expected, and saw a note about their Master of Pacific and International Relations program. Did anyone else get one of these notes? I imagine that they are just canned marketing messages, but I am curious to know if anyone else received one, or if anyone knows why the school sends them out at all . . .
potbellypete Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 so as much as I hate to interrupt this poetry session which is much nicer than the anxiety we are all enduring, I must ask....... does it seem Rochester is done? 8 or so acceptances posted this year -- only 10 all of last year.
orst11 Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 I get to join the OSU rejection club. Thanks for the V-Day gift OSU, NOT.
balthasar Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 Rejection breathes OSU, Sucks, it still Foreknowledge regardless worst Haiku ever..

Perhaps you and I are particularly awesome. Yep, must be.

whirlibird Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 I got one as well. Perhaps you and I are particularly awesome. Yep, must be. Yup, me, too. I, however, didn't think they had reconsidered...I assumed they wanted to rub salt in the wound. To them I say: you can't take away the joy of post-valentine's chocolate sales, even with your cold-hearted correspondence! Except I don't know if we have those sales here...oh. Okay, haiku time: Ignorance is bliss Before, we begged to differ I take it all back! I'm glad we're passing the time in style.

To them I say: you can't take away the joy of post-valentine's chocolate sales, even with your cold-hearted correspondence! Ah, well, I suppose that this process has not yet sapped me of my optimism. In hindsight, it was silly to assume that they might have reconsidered. At the moment, however, it seemed the best possible explanation. I mean, why wouldn't they?
