sociology27 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Someone posted a U. of Chicago acceptance on the results board already!? This seems really early. I didn't apply there but I'm curious if this is for real. Anybody want to claim it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allhandsonthebadone Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 The only thing I got from U of Chicago today was an email invitation to apply for FLAS funding. It was addressed "Dear Applicant." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sciencegirl Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 @TSISV hahahaha - same thing happened to me when I saw the e-mail from them - then realized it was fellowship info. Weird how there are two supposed acceptances on the board, and neither one is claiming them here. It seems that at least one of them applied super early (they waive the fee if you apply before Nov 15.) Maybe this is their version of early action and they are doing an early round of acceptances for those that applied early? Or maybe just one advisor who might be gone/out of the country this quarter and wants to do her/his admit stuff as early as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sciencegirl Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 OK - so I am thinking that we got punked with this... unless someone would like to step up and claim the U of C acceptance I am under the inclination that someone was just playing a prank on the board. Oddly too, there is now only just one acceptance on the board, not 2... one of them got deleted. I realized after looking at the post on acceptance dates, that Chicago acceptances are normally mid-March.. their apps were also due Dec 10... so somehow, a top program was able to come to agreement out of hundreds of applications in 3 weeks during the holidays/end of semester to admit a small part of their incoming class on Jan 3. Seems really fishy to me. Especially since we haven't heard more acceptances or from the person claiming the admit. Bueller? Bueller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allhandsonthebadone Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I believe there was a case where there was one very early acceptance from U of C sociology last year. Either way funny how we can get riled up so easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
