fedupofthewait Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 Just saw 2 UC Santa Cruz Literature acceptances on the Results survery.....anyone want to claim those? Eagerly waiting to hear something :-(
Germaine123 Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Ahh. Wasn't me. But I'm also eagerly anticipating hearing from them... fedupofthewait do you know anything about their target cohort size? There doesn't seem to be much info on the results board from past years to go by.
fedupofthewait Posted February 13, 2012 Author Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Germaine123, I don't know much about the cohort size either. I looked at the past 2 years' results survery and couldn't gather much either. Seemed as though there were not may Gradcafe-ers who applied there ? Their deadline was so early; I am guessing we should be hearing something soon. Edited February 13, 2012 by fedupofthewait
Germaine123 Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Yeah, seems that way. Let me know if you hear anything. Hopefully some good news will come our way soon!
Germaine123 Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 Hmmm. Seems like someone posted another acceptance. Is it me or does this seem a bit erratic?
fedupofthewait Posted February 15, 2012 Author Posted February 15, 2012 I was thinking about PMing you to see if that was you. This is making me so restless. I just saw the two acceptances as well. I guess we will be hearing something soon?
ekant Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 I'm eagerly waiting to hear back from Santa Cruz too.
Germaine123 Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 I'm eagerly waiting to hear back from Santa Cruz too. I wish there was more to glean from past years' results survey.
ekant Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 I wish there was more to glean from past years' results survey. Right?! The information is shaky.
fedupofthewait Posted February 20, 2012 Author Posted February 20, 2012 I m with you two on the insufficient info on the results survey from previous years....I wish all three of us hear some good news.

Baccarat Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Hey guys! i have been admitted to phd in literature of UCSC. I dont know if the same program you are talking about. My interest is Latin American literature. A prof. called me last week and sent me the funding offer. Sorry if I have mistaken the program or something. My aim is to be helpful.

I do think we're talking about the same program. Is Santa Cruz one of your top choices?
Baccarat Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Congrats, Baccarat! I do think we're talking about the same program. Is Santa Cruz one of your top choices? Thank you very much Germaine. Well, I did not apply to many programs, just 4 since I gotta move to the bay area. I like all of them. I will decide after the visiting day. Anyone else comming?
Germaine123 Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Thank you very much Germaine. Well, I did not apply to many programs, just 4 since I gotta move to the bay area. I like all of them. I will decide after the visiting day. Anyone else comming? Oh, nice. The bay area is awesome. When is visiting day? If it's coming up soon, that may not bode well for those of us who haven't heard anything yet (myself included).
Baccarat Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 The visiting day is March the 5th. Maybe, I was told in advanced because I don´t live in the US. I have not received a formal letter from the Graduate Department but a professor called me and told me about my admission. Besides this, a secretary sent me a e mail about the visiting day and stuff. As I can not become a resident of the US during my PhD, I was offered an acelerated phd. I am telling you all this because you (Germaine) and the rest may have chances to be admitted in the regular program. I hope it will be like this if UCSC is one of your top choices. xoxo

I'm still holding out some hope, but, March 5 is definitely right around the corner...I feel like they would have notified most of their admits by now... Your "xoxo" totally made my day. Love it. Enjoy your visit!
ekant Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 There are 4 acceptances up on the board. I got an e-mail today from the DGS (regarding the status of decisions): "I apologize for the delay in my response to your question. Application decisions should go out via email from the UCSC Graduate Division sometime next week. Best, Emily" If a visiting weekend is March 5th, they've definitely notified all their admits by now. Assuming another rejection, then.

fedupofthewait Posted February 29, 2012 Author Posted February 29, 2012 Just got that too. Was expecting it, as their Welcome day is in the first week of March. Oh well.
Ryzhaya Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 Yup, me too. Ah well. And with that, I'm officially moving out of California . . . weird!
