PhDhopeful2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Really? All? That makes me feel better. After talking to them, I was under the impression that all of the apps had this problem. curious... For anyone who has actually heard from Michigan, did your app ever say Complete on the Wolverine site?
PhDhopeful2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 If you can sleep, for the sake of all things decent, get some sleep! agreed! best case, you wake up to a glorious acceptance... worst case, you stay up constantly refreshing your email in vain and are exhausted at the end with no new info. I defintiely vote for Sleep! pseudonym and Wemayet 2
CGMJ Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Doesn't Stanford typically do calls from professors? It looks like a lot last year were calls.
CGMJ Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 By post? Seriously? Even for internationals? That would actually take forever. Better listen to Lemeard, then. A lot were, all on the same day too, so they probably overnight them. But some calls and emails too.
raptureonfire Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 For anyone stressing about the status of their Columbia apps, I called today, after seeing that my GRE scores were not received. It turns out that they were, but the site isn't updating. Now all they have to do is accept me with full funding!

I defintiely vote for Sleep! That's great advice actually! I woke up to my NYU acceptance having no idea they would send out decisions that early. Best morning ever. As you can probably tell, I live on the other side of the world. Sleep it is. Seems to be working for me. On the other hand, I got the UCLA acceptance when I was in a drunken stupor way past midnight. Maybe I should... In any case, best of luck to everyone! Have a good weekend! I will do my best to stay away from the forum until Monday... PhDhopeful2013 1

Well fortunately they have guaranteed funding for all their phd students and all ppl get the same. Love schools that do that! So good luck to everyone on gettin in!

Wemayet Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 "You have reached your quota of positive votes for the day" What a hateful forum. +1 for you!
PhDhopeful2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 it always said incomplete! ok thanks! there goes that theory!
CGMJ Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 That's pretty cruel. I think if in the 1 in 9,999,999,999,999 chance that I answered my phone and it was Shanto Iyengar calling to congratulate me on my acceptance, I would be so utterly shocked that I would probably just end up making a fool out of myself. Indeed!
CGMJ Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 it always said incomplete! So there is no reason for me to keep refreshing wolverine access?
GopherGrad Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Oh, I've been rehearsing my chat with Jeremy Wienstien for months now. Bring on the POI call! scanthiliad 1
certaincertainties Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 curious... For anyone who has actually heard from Michigan, did your app ever say Complete on the Wolverine site? Mine still says incomplete and I got in, so I think it's a system-wide glitch (I also emailed to check that they had all my materials and they confirmed that they did).
PhDhopeful2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 uhg - just got the official UMich rejection email...
news2yous Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 uhg - just got the official UMich rejection email... Oof... sorry about that, man. Crap now I'm really going to check my email every 5 seconds.
PoliSwede Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 I don't see a single Michigan acceptance from today. Just waitlists and rejections. Bad.
balledematch Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Sorry for all the rejections today guys can't wait till this hellish week is over...been an absolute bloodbath for me. Spirit crushing

phdhope2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Is it safe to assume that the Northwestern acceptance does not exist in reality? Really waiting on this one. phdhope2013, balledematch and teamind 3
news2yous Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Why does have to be so harsh for people who struck out? Just give a clean beheading already.
hopefully2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Another MIT acceptance on the results board.... does somebody, anybody, have an idea what sub-field is?? This one is killing me more than most!
PhDhopeful2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 (edited) Oof... sorry about that, man. Crap now I'm really going to check my email every 5 seconds. thanks... yeah depressing start for my admissions cycle... really hoping for a positive turn soon...

Quigley Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Sorry for all the rejections today guys can't wait till this hellish week is over...been an absolute bloodbath for me. Spirit crushing The day is still young. Things could turn around by this evening. balledematch and Wemayet 2
