wintergirl Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 yes, please tell us about the Stanford skype interviews. DITTO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rawera Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Yes, and I've also made note of their area code: 650. Oh, god... what have I turned into? I did this today. A poor decision on my part. I also wanted to bump the Stanford thread, but I didn't want to give anyone a heart attack. rainy_day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0000000000AAA Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 So I've just setup my gmail account to forward a message to my (non-smart) phone every time I get an email from certain domains...like @ucla, or @unc, @stanford.... This has to end, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thestage Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 yeah, this stanford thing is kinda killing me right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0000000000AAA Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) I'm trying desperately to forget the three digit area code for stanford. And also regretting that I didn't apply to Northwestern. What's one more school when you've got 15 already on your list? EDIT: And it's now the 26th of January. We are in a realm in which it wouldn't be ridiculous to actually hear from schools. Edited January 26, 2012 by WellSpring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indalomena Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I wonder if I should give up gradcafe for the next two months, I have a feeling this could get ridiculously painful UNLESS I GET IN Two Espressos and Grunty DaGnome 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thestage Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 isn't it a little weird to wait list people before admitting anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takethiswaltz Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Yeah, it does strike me as weird. Maybe they meant to select "Other"? Anyone care to claim this result? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0000000000AAA Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 ...as much as I dislike waiting, this is better than applying! At least now we are delightfully out of control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainy_day Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 ...as much as I dislike waiting, this is better than applying! At least now we are delightfully out of control. I believe this whole process tells us much about ourselves. For example, I am neurotic and an utter control freak, and find this excruciatingly more painful specifically because it is out of my control.

JeremiahParadise Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Just wanted to say that, as a person who's not applying until next fall, watching you all wait for these decisions is really exciting to me. No, I'm not a sadist or anything. It's just that I know it's crazy stressful, but you're at the verge of a major, life-changing event, and I think that's awesome/exciting. Keep it cool (as best you can) and remember to enjoy the interim -- if things work out, you'll never be back in this time/place in your life again! Savor friends/family/freetime (what little you might have) for now. Who knows, you might need to start planning a cross-country/Atlantic move pretty soon!

Grunty DaGnome Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Apparently someone has gotten wait-listed at Yale! Good luck! Well, it wasn't me, but I did notice it was a "waitlist/other" entry and the comment stated that Yale doesn't do interviews for the English PhD. I think this comment was left by a Yale hopeful who called the department asking about interviews and thought they would share their info/spare the Yale English Department similar calls from Grad Cafe readers.
