It appears that I inadvertently unleashed a storm of panic re Northwestern. Sorry guys! I'll try my best not to project my own fears onto you in the future.

In at Chicago!!!! I really didn't see this one coming... This is was my toughest-to-get-in choice.

I striked out last year. The world of Ph.D. admissions works in mysterious ways.

Cheers! Congratulations. :)

Lots of Emory rejections coming in (that includes me, got an automated mail) at the results page. Today's their dumping day.

Congratulations. Did they tell you today or yesterday?

Yesterday. But I was asleep--there is a lot of time difference between Chicago and where I live. And then I went to work. (The company I work for is draconian enough to block Gmail...) So I just found out :D

Accepted into UC Irvine. Received a phone call from the DGA. Full funding for 5 years (tuition + stipend for TAship). Says he will be emailing those he was not able to reach by phone.

First acceptance - yay!

Protocol question: Is it really that bad to call a school and check on the process???

No, I'm sure that they love it. Just post your results. :)

Really touch and go depending on the school. One I was violently told that no, my file was not reviewed, and that calling slows down processing my "little file". Others have been pleasant and accomodating.

Yikes! Your "little file"? That's rough. I'm about to call the University of Washington. The fact that my status changed last week and I still haven't heard anything merits (I believe) an inquiry.

Have any UVA admits heard about funding yet?? I called Cassandra who said she "thought" they were done making those decisions and to follow up w/ the Chair. Followed up w/ an email to Herman Schwartz. No word yet. Grr....

No news about UVA funding yet. Had sent an email to the grad secy Cassandra too. No response. Since you already mailed the DGS, I might try with the grad school next.
