I would say WUSTL is almost done with acceptance letters, last year 7 were reported on gradcafe, this year we already got 5... Sad, I know, I was hoping for that email... 

Posted

Any brave soul here willing to take one for the team and call UCLA?

 

I'll email them! I've gotten a lot of responses that way.

Do you think they know gradcafe exists? :)

 

Yea, I guarantee a few do too. A few I've met in the past have said how informative it is to look after decisions are out (so they can try and gauge responses I guess?).

Congrats!  Out of interest, what sub-field are those who have heard from Chicago?  A friend of mine who was also accepted studies American politics.  The email also went to his spam folder, by the way.

Since I haven't gotten an interview with the University of Washington, should I consider that as a rejection?

Congrats to everyone! 

 

Dang! 73 people... noon CST is a hot time to be here!

I hope not. I haven't heard anything from U of C. I don't think I can handle two rejections at the same time.

First of all, i had to look up "their ears were burning," that's a great phrase, I'm going to use it more often. second, it said "Greetings from U Chicago!" and its entire text was "see attached." Attached was a very nice letter detailing the stipend for which I've been "recommended," lord only knows what that means, visiting students day/travel stipend (it's march 7-8), and the itinerary for visiting students day.

 

I hope your all good news comes soon! (Also i meant to say, UCSD, the school from which I got rejected last week). For half a minute this morning I was considering applying to their masters program, and also to a variety of other jobs for next year, but now i know, I'm in somewhere i'm very happy with.

 

I feel like Biggie- "It was all a dream, I used to read word up magazine..."

Congrats! Gives me hope that I might still get into my higher ranked choices. Nice touch with the Biggie Smalls reference.

That's great!

Bummer.  Been waiting for the rejection e-mail from Wisconsin, but it still stings a bit. 

 

I'll be taking my Wisconsin sweatshirt to Goodwill this week.

Oh no, UW bloodbath today!

 

UW massacre  :wacko:

 

Damn!  Type "political science" in the results search, and your screen will bleed cheese!!  That's the first time I've seen a half-page hammering go out at once.

For the people who had phone or Skype interviews for Vandy: did they say anything about when they were planning on letting you/other know by?

anyone else feeling left out? I've gotten no decisions yet, which I guess is a good thing for UCSD, but a bad thing for UCLA, Chicago, Duke and NYU!
