CrazyCatLady80 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Annieca - you probably already know this, but getting into a MLS program, even with the MA, isn't too difficult. I got into all the schools for my MLS with my crappy undergrad grades. Granted....this was ten years, but I don't think things have changed. I am sure you will get into these programs without any problem. Are you planning on being an archivist? I did that for five years. Loved it, but it wasn't for me.

Wicked_Problem Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Thanks to comprehensive post from person accepted to The Ohio State University.

Wicked_Problem Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Got into my favorite today!!! No word on funding though. Annieca, You'd previously said, "One of the schools I'm looking at eliminated their dual Library Science, Public History program because they didn't have the professors for the Archives Concentration. This was by FAR my favorite program for the actual program aspects. (Another school took top spot for one professor.)" Is your acceptance to the former or the latter? Congratulations!!

hanbran Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Does anyone know how OSU is staggering offers of admissions? Like, is it based on fields, or a ranking, or funding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New England Nat Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 hanbran that is how it was done at OSU in several previous cycles. I would not be surprised if they are still admitting in March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coffeehog1218 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Welp, so far accepted at LSU, rejected at Duke. Still 5 to go though, here's hoping! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
czesc Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 And condolences to the first rejection. Everything is really coming fast this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annieca Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 @CrazyCatLady- well that was just slightly depressing there. Yeah, I expected to get into most MLS programs (except Chapel Hill where I just missed the GRE cutoff) but Aber's is special. They require Latin and I don't know a speck of Latin but... Yeah, I want to do archives for a nonprofit, prefer ably humanitarian based. @Wicked problem- neither actually. I was deterred from applying to the program with a favorite professor (by said professor). Still waiting to hear on my favorite US based one (the first one). I didn't know at the time Aber was ever even going to be an option until I fell in love with the university, the opportunities and the people. And to everyone else, thanks!

GuitarSlayer Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 ROFL, I was about to post the same thing, VT. XD Jeez. That's my #1, so I'll be on pins and needles until I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dknows Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Hey what's the story on that Northwestern acceptance that just got posted? haha I am probably going to ask the same thing for every additional post.

lafayette Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Last year Northwestern sent out all their acceptances and rejections at once, so who knows about that lone update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New England Nat Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Guys, i hate to tell you this, but in previous years there were false notices on the result board. Don't get your heart set on outliers or start freaking out because of them. They may be private notices from PoIs, or they might not be real. czesc, lafayette and Andean Pat 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to believe people would do something so rude...but you're right. Trying to keep things in perspective, but it's hard not to keep checking the results pages!

New England Nat Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 At least for the last two years there were notices posted from schools that were later known for a fact to have not sent out decisions. The internet breeds sociopathic behavior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
