BigCheese Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Another morning, another day in the life of anxious grad school applicants. Life is beautiful. tell me about it :cry:
plisar Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 tell me about it :cry: Is Yale still playing with you? Geez man, what jerks!
spark25 Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Good morning to you all! It seems like UCLA has been sending out rejection e-mails last night. SIgnals what we are up for today, especially UCLA and Univ of Washington, possibly Duke! EDIT: Congrats to the one accepted to Stanford!
IRHopeful Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Good morning to you all! It seems like UCLA has been sending out rejection e-mails last night. SIgnals what we are up for today, especially UCLA and Univ of Washington, possibly Duke! EDIT: Congrats to the one accepted to Stanford! Speak of the devil. There's now a Duke acceptance on the results page. Looks like we're in for a wild ride today.
spark25 Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Speak of the devil. There's now a Duke acceptance on the results page. Looks like we're in for a wild ride today. Oh no! My Duke status page shows no change thus far.
PollyTheory Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Oh no! My Duke status page shows no change thus far. Same here.
mormegil Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Looking at all the places I applied I see only Northwestern coming out this week (or is it?). The grad secretary at Purdue, my ultimate safety school, told me on Monday that my file is with the last member of the committee and I should know unofficially by Friday (i.e. tomorrow). Over at the Marquette MA program, another safety, the DGS mailed me saying that my file is still to be seen by two more members of the committee but with comments from members who have already reviewed my file I look good for acceptance. Official decision to come in a week and funding decision to come at end February. Oh well. :| (and congrats to the person who got into Duke. )
BigCheese Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Is Yale still playing with you? Geez man, what jerks! yeah they are....its like damn just let me know that i've been rejected so i can move on and obsess over another school... :?
scintille Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Someone please convince me not to call Duke and Northwestern to ask when decisions are coming out because it won't help them announce any faster. Thank you.
plisar Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Anyone ever wonder what happened to UNC? I think we all forgot.
mormegil Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Did you guys notice we are already near surpassing the hopelessly long decisions thread of last year and we are not even close to February's last week and March's 1st week, probably the two most busiest weeks in admissions calendar. EDIT: we have already surpassed that. :oops:
plisar Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 I think we chit chat more than they did, to be honest. Plus there are definitely more of us.
spark25 Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Anyone ever wonder what happened to UNC? I think we all forgot. True! We all thought that UNC would be one of the first schools to notify along with UVA and then we sort of forgot once Duke sent out rejection e-mails. I'm curious myself now, did anyone hear back from UNC?
natofone Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Have you guys and gals checked your Duke application? I'm still not showing anything.
rlayla Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Is Yale still playing with you? Geez man, what jerks! The bastards! Think today will be the day?
IRHopeful Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Have you guys and gals checked your Duke application? I'm still not showing anything. I'm not seeing anything either. However, another person just posted an acceptance on the results page. It said they were accepted 2 days ago though, which is really strange.
spark25 Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Have you guys and gals checked your Duke application? I'm still not showing anything. Mine doesn't show anything either, but I have a bad feeling about this if I don't hear back soon. Because, according to last year's trend, Duke seems to send out acceptances and then the remaining rejections. But you never know and that one post could be bogus. Let's wait a bit and see.
PollyTheory Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Jeez! Another Duke acceptance posted! They appear to be both internationals, though, if that means anything...
cjh19 Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 I'm curious myself now, did anyone hear back from UNC? I think that if there had been any motion from UNC we would have heard about it--the gradcafe's web of informants is pretty broad this year. Congrats to all you Berkeley folks--I wasn't really expecting to get in, but nevertheless the silence in my inbox feels like the cancellation of Christmas.
rlayla Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Ooooh, stanford is starting to call people! EDIT: Which is weird now that I think about it cause its still hella early in California.
spark25 Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Ooooh, stanford is starting to call people! double uh-oh!
scintille Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Well I just called Duke and got voicemail, so lets hope they're all busy at their computers entering our decisions into the system.
