Thank you very very much czesc !! I'll keep all these in mind - actually, they sound rather similar to my own survival strategies here. Basically: don't eat out, use public transportation, exploit your student identity card to the maximum. :)

 

CarrieLe5 - I received an e-mail with instructions to check the website, and the link to my decision letter was there (somewhere in the bottom of the status page). Did you get any e-mail of this sort?

Thanks, Heulwen. I haven't received an email directing me to the website yet, but I'll keep an eye out for it.

 

Congrats on CUNY, by the way. I love NYC and hope you'll enjoy it there.  :)

Anyone heard anything on UVA or William and Mary?

No news on my end. I'm still waiting to hear from William and Mary as well. :unsure:

Thank you ! I'm really excited about this!

 

Well, if you haven't received that official letter of rejection yet, I assume you are on  their waitlist or maybe you are admitted ! Best of luck & fingers crossed ! B)

I am also waiting on Virginia, but there appeared at least 3-4 acceptances in in February, so I am not very hopeful about it :(

Hi Vtstevie - I contacted the DGS via email. He replied saying that I would receive an official notice in the next week or two.

be sure to post in here when you get your acceptance so I can know whether or not to get my hopes up!

Yep. I emailed him yesterday and he replied this morning. I'll submit the news when I receive official word. In the meantime, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!!

when it comes to e-mailing DGS people to try and get info, what approach to you folks take? or do you avoid it entirely?

I have been, but I'm inching closer and closer to doing this, so I can finally start focusing on writing my MA thesis...

yeah, I've been able to with two schools so far since i know people who have gotten unofficial emails (in which case i ask if not having received one means I should not expect one), but the waiting is killing me on my other schools and I just want to get this over with...problem is, I can't figure a good way to ask outside of just, "hey I'm impatient, can you just tell me if I'm in already?!"

I was the Tulane admit. I don't really have any info for you other than what I posted in the results, though. Admitted students days are March 18-20. I got an email from the DGS but haven't heard from any of my POIs. I did not contact the program during the admissions process. I also just noticed that the stipend is $22,500 not $21,500. Hope that helps!

The University of Delaware has started to contact their admits. Best wishes for those who applied to the program!!! :)

I wish the UW would just break my heart already. Anyone want to claim those UW admits for the sake of my curiosity?

 

I got into their international studies program, so I'm not really sure about the history dept. Best of luck though!

carrie you're havin' a good couple of days over there!

I can't complain! :D I'm looking forward to putting the "waiting period" behind me and return my focus to comprehensive exams.
