have people been communicating a lot with schools they've been accepted to? I'm tired...

Actually no, but this is worrying me! I haven't heard anything about a visitation weekend, or funding yet, and obviously I have lots of questions about the program. I am pretty much sitting tight waiting to hear any additional info, but I'm now starting to think I should send a follow up email. I'm trying to discern the line between showing I am interested and finding out details I need to know, vs just waiting to be contacted and not bothering them during what must be a hectic time. What are you communicating with the departments about? And with whom?

I am freaking out bc of GWU! If that email doesn't come today, I will be very very sad... :(

I literally just got the email and it definitely didn't look like a blast. Hang in there... still plenty of time!

Congratulations!!!!!!

 

May I ask your subfield? Anything interesting in the acceptance letter, such as number of applicants and so?

IR. Nothing interesting really... $22K stipend, which seems like the standard for most places

just got into gw also and my subfield is comparative 

 

Congrats, you two! =) 

 

I shall now obsessively refresh my email. 

Chicago rejections are up too. So I'm assuming some of us are finally going to hear from them?

Congratulations!  Has your status changed in the online application portal?  I ask because constantly refreshing gradcafe isn't satisfying anymore.... :)

I hope so, though I think it is pretty cruel to leave candidates waiting for almost a month to tell them they were rejected.

Yeah saw that. Any way we can obsessively check our status or do we just have to sit and wait?

Ahh! Condolences. I'm also pretty much just waiting to be rejected. Were you notified by email?

No, I just checked my profile and there was a link(application decision available) at the bottom.

Anyone want to make some predictions about the rest of the week?  I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Harvard and Princeton come out tomorrow.

I second that! Good luck for everyone who wants to be in either NJ or Massachusetts next year.

On the applyyourself site? Hmm still no decision for me. Put me out of my misery, admission gods, I beg of you!!!

I must say, based on past years' performances, if you survive the day in which UVa sends out the blast rejection email (or updates applyyourself) without hearing anything then you are definitely on the wait list.
