Triple Tall Cappuccino Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 @wlkwih2 and @Triple Tall Cappuccino - I had my interview with Harvard today (I mistakenly wrote February 4th on the result survey page, should have been 3rd), and they told me that decisions are due at the end of the month, so there is still plenty of time. Keeping my fingers crossed for all of us! Ling304! How did it go? I would have crossed my fingers for you today! LOL How do you feel you did? What did they ask?
Reddawg50 Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Hello everyone-- first post. I applied to 13 programs (insane, but I'm trying to coordinate geographic location with my partner). I also got the Berkeley rejection. UPenn (Educational Linguistics) has already sent out their invites-- I did not get one. However, I did get an invite to Johns Hopkins (Cognitive Science)! Still waiting on the other ten...
Triple Tall Cappuccino Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Welcome, Reddawg! Sorry about the rejections, but congrats on the invite! I hope they keep coming!
Reddawg50 Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 thanks, Cappuccino, and good luck on all of yours-- maybe we'll be colleagues at Harvard or UMD!
PhDreaming Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Just got my rejection from Stanford (as did 2 other friends of mine). Sounds like they sent out a mass e-mail. Sorry to everyone who got that! Anyone get invited for an interview?
snoods Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 my webloggin/ wolverine access still doesn't say "Rejected" for Michigan even though I didn't get a campus invite & I'm assuming I've been rejected! Will they please just put it up already?! ahhh. The dreaded wating continues....
snoods Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 oh wait there it is. wasn't here this morning. it's official yay I can move on!
Athenrein Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 I got my Stanford rejection today as well. 2 down, 3 to go. I'm glad to know that not hearing from Harvard yet doesn't automatically mean rejection - but I can't help but feeling that if Berkeley and Stanford don't want me, I don't stand a chance with Harvard. Congratulations to everyone getting acceptances!
Ling304 Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Just got rejected by my first choice (Stanford). Ouch. What the %$#@ is going on in California this year? It seems that both Berkeley and Stanford had an unusual large amount of applicant. Now I am worried about UCLA more than I was before.
fuzzylogician Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Public universities in California are in a bad financial state. Santa Cruz accepts between 0 and 1 international applicants a year recently and things are not looking great at Berkley and UCLA either (though considerably better than at SC). Stanford is a whole other matter. In any event, congrats to everyone who has been admitted or got interviews and good luck to all who are still waiting! Don't go too mad
busbus Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 oh wait there it is. wasn't here this morning. it's official yay I can move on! where are you seeing this? lol

I'd love to put my rejection into perspective!

I try not to go too mad!
Reddawg50 Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 everyone getting letters from Stanford, was for linguistics-- not for educational linguistics-- right?
PhDreaming Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 everyone getting letters from Stanford, was for linguistics-- not for educational linguistics-- right? far as I know... at least me and my three friends were ling and NOT ed ling

Don't go too mad Quick question: Are you at Harvard?
txelizabeth Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Ack, people are hearing from UMich (my top choice) and Texas, but my email, voicemail, and online statuses tell me nada! And, of course, it's the weekend now. :/
fuzzylogician Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Quick question: Are you at Harvard? No. I'm at the other Cambridge school. (But I have friends who go to Harvard, if you have any questions.)
LinguisticMystic Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Congrats to everyone who's gotten good news this week. I still haven't heard anything (other than my UCBS rejection). This wait is worse than waiting months for spinal surgery. Safe to say!
Pleng Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 May I recommend you all 9gag.com? It's fun so maybe it can help us dealing with our nervousness.
ladyling Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Hey all! I went through this last year and just wanted to say good luck to everyone.
PhDreaming Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Congrats to everyone who's gotten good news this week. I still haven't heard anything (other than my UCBS rejection). This wait is worse than waiting months for spinal surgery. Safe to say! I hope you get in to Madison and choose to go there. I LOVE madison so much (did my undergrad there). It is the best small city in America. Good luck!
LinguisticMystic Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 I hope you get in to Madison and choose to go there. I LOVE madison so much (did my undergrad there). It is the best small city in America. Good luck! Hah, thanks. One of my recommenders told me that she expected to have heard something about my application if they were seriously considering me. But she hasn't. Sooooooo, we'll see what happens with that. I do love living in Wisconsin, but my car & I would love more to live somewhere without so much snow/cold for a few years (at least)...... And Madison is indeed a wonderful city, though I might favor Minneapolis. Minnesota bias...
busbus Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 (edited) where are you seeing this? lol Oh gosh, I finally found the little "Application Decision" link. Duh! So U Mich is a rejection for me, peeps! Edited February 4, 2012 by busbus
