TakeMyCoffeeBlack Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 have any of the recent UNC admits been in the comparative subfield? Also comparative here, still nothing (positive, negative or neutral).
PDCU Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Why, did you ask them not to refer you to the MA? I checked the box not to be referred, already have an MA so not sure why they'd suggest, or I'd desire, another!Yeah. I did exactly that, but still got admitted to the MA anyways.
scanthiliad Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 just called to MIT - all decisions were mailed out thursday night so i guess everyone else is out of luck
frankentheory Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Claiming the recent UC Santa Cruz theory admit. Very warm and detailed letter from POI. Unofficial info on funding (have to wait for the bureaucratic machinery to do its laborious work before specific details emerge), but initial indications are that it is a very competitive offer for 5 years of support. I hope everyone here receives good news this week!

hopefully2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 So, is it safe to say if you applied to Berkeley but haven't heard, you're toast?
frankentheory Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Congrats!! Thanks! I see by your signature that we've applied to many of the same programs. Are you planning on attending the Colorado or Minnesota visitation days?
Quigley Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 So, is it safe to say if you applied to Berkeley but haven't heard, you're toast? I'm assuming as much, but I guess you never know.
frankentheory Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 I'm assuming as much, but I guess you never know. I'm kind of feeling the same way about Berkeley, but hopefully not all the offers are out yet.
rkmattson Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Thanks! I see by your signature that we've applied to many of the same programs. Are you planning on attending the Colorado or Minnesota visitation days? Yeah, I thought that was funny - I guess theory ppl know where to apply! I will be going to both those. You?
rkmattson Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 I'm hoping it's not over yet, but I'm guessing if we don't hear by the end of the week it's over :/ So, is it safe to say if you applied to Berkeley but haven't heard, you're toast? I'm assuming as much, but I guess you never know. I'm kind of feeling the same way about Berkeley, but hopefully not all the offers are out yet.
TakeMyCoffeeBlack Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Claiming a UNC admit. Comparative Congrats! Was it a personal e-mail or form?
PhDhopeful2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Claiming a UNC admit. Comparative Congratulations!!
zzzzzz Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 It was a personal email from someone on the adcomm. Super nice email, actual details of the offer to follow.
frankentheory Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Yeah, I thought that was funny - I guess theory ppl know where to apply! I will be going to both those. You? I'll be going to both as well. I look forward to meeting you then! Best of luck on the rest of your apps! rkmattson 1
BornAndRaised Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) Has anyone else applied to Indiana, Bloomington? Think we'll hear from them this week? Last year's results have acceptances around this time. Edited February 12, 2013 by BornAndRaised
TTP25 Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 I'm in at UC Santa Cruz. It's my alma mater. If any of the other admits have any questions, feel free to PM me.
setgree Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) So, is it safe to say if you applied to Berkeley but haven't heard, you're toast? No it is not safe to assume this. If and when they decide to reject you, they'll send the letter. Admissions is like quantum physics. Until the decision takes a final form that you observe, i.e. a letter in your hand, and not your inference based on the unreliable information of a message board, it's an unknown.

brkrgal85 Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Has anyone else applied to Indiana, Bloomington? Think we'll hear from them this week? Last year's results have acceptances around this time. Wondering the same thing about Indiana.
TTP25 Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Congrats! Thanks. Congrats to you too! It's a beautiful school and a fantastic place to live.
MyUSofWhatever Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Has anyone else applied to Indiana, Bloomington? Think we'll hear from them this week? Last year's results have acceptances around this time. My guess is Thursday or Friday. That's based on the same historical results data you're referring to, however, so your guess is as good as mine
Mnemonics2 Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Schools be playin' with my heartstrings today... CautiouslyHopeful and rkmattson 2
