sef802 Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Congrats policy_applicant! I'm still waiting...... But glad to see someone else on here this morning!!
dagger Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Per usual with me.....I expect to hear 2 weeks from now. For reasons beyond me, I always hear late. And its not like the schools are determining enormous funding packages for me either. PS. Congratulations! I'm jealous you always hear before me!

And its not like the schools are determining enormous funding packages for me either. PS. Congratulations! I'm jealous you always hear before me! Hahaha. Oh no! I'd put money on you hearing by Monday at the latest. Plus, no funding decisions for a couple of weeks, so you're not missing out on anything yet. :wink:

Plus, no funding decisions for a couple of weeks, so you're not missing out on anything yet. :wink: You know the lack of funding decisions w/ admissions offers is killing me! Its like, we've waited this long, cant you get your things together!
policy_applicant Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 You know the lack of funding decisions w/ admissions offers is killing me! Its like, we've waited this long, cant you get your things together! Seriously! I'm ready to be able to start seriously considering my options, but I can't do that until I have a complete funding picture. I need to just resign myself to having an incomplete picture until April 1 at the earliest.
golonghorns Posted March 13, 2009 Author Posted March 13, 2009 omg, it has finally started!! congratulations policy applicant! im still on the waiting train....but i will post here the minute i hear something! ....now off to meditate.
dagger Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Seriously! I'm ready to be able to start seriously considering my options, but I can't do that until I have a complete funding picture. I need to just resign myself to having an incomplete picture until April 1 at the earliest. I'm starting to realize the same thing. I want to know whether or not I should be visiting schools. I don't want to drop $300 on a visit to a school that I later find is not offering any funding.
MCneelified06 Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 I'm still waiting, too. Not sending out all the emails simultaneously is annoying :-) I'm so glad y'all mentioned the funding issue. It seems like every weekend beginning in late March there are student days -- and I have to take off work, etc. I can't believe these schools don't tell you your scholarship award in the admit email!
dagger Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 I received mine at about 2PM Central. First time I was notified around the same time as everyone else. The lack of funding info still kills me though.
sef802 Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 I just received an e-mail 30 minutes ago saying I got accepted for Global Policy! Guess they are trickling out throughout the day. Looks like I will be at UT this fall!!! Congrats to everyone else as well!
policy_applicant Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 I received mine at about 2PM Central. First time I was notified around the same time as everyone else. The lack of funding info still kills me though. Yay! Congrats, dagger!
dagger Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Yay! Congrats, dagger! Thank you! I couldn't let you be the only one. :wink: It looks like my SOP slip up and subsequent scramble to fix it worked out.
s800x Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 I just received an e-mail 30 minutes ago saying I got accepted for Global Policy! Guess they are trickling out throughout the day. Looks like I will be at UT this fall!!! Congrats to everyone else as well! Congrats sef802!
policy_applicant Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Thank you! I couldn't let you be the only one. :wink: It looks like my SOP slip up and subsequent scramble to fix it worked out. That's right! How did you scramble to fix it, though? I thought you just left it in there. Did you resend the SOP or something?
dagger Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Yes - I resent it in an e-mail but I figured I was done. They had the original (e-mailed), and two hard copies, one to LBJ and one to the Graduate School. Three of the four they received had the mistake. I didn't like my odds. I bet its going to bite me when it comes to funding though.
mpp2011 Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Anyone else still waiting to hear? I really thought I'd hear from my last three schools this week, but nothing so far...
golonghorns Posted March 13, 2009 Author Posted March 13, 2009 still waiting...patiently. i refuse to give up hope. maybe they will send out something on saturday? i know some schools do... congratulations to all those who have heard. dagger i'm glad it worked out for you!
s800x Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Yup still waiting. My surname begins with S if that's of any interest!
dagger Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 I said it on other threads, but it is not at all unusual for things to come out over the course of a few days. This is one of the first times that I've heard the first time notifications came out. I'm sure you all will be hearing positive news soon. Just be patient.
mpp2011 Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 OK - if someone who got into Berkeley and Princeton hasn't heard yet, then I'm not going to worry. Thanks for the responses, and best of luck to everyone.
golonghorns Posted March 14, 2009 Author Posted March 14, 2009 OK - if someone who got into Berkeley and Princeton hasn't heard yet, then I'm not going to worry. Thanks for the responses, and best of luck to everyone. Haha I know right...that is exactly how I felt when I saw that a Berkeley and Princeton admit...hasn't heard either! At least we can sleep easy tonight knowing that....
sef802 Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 OK - if someone who got into Berkeley and Princeton hasn't heard yet, then I'm not going to worry. Thanks for the responses, and best of luck to everyone. Yeah, seriously! From last year's results page it looks like the first notifications came out over a span of 3 days. And yesterday they weren't sent at one time but all day throughout the day. So I'm sure the sending will resume Monday morning.
golonghorns Posted March 16, 2009 Author Posted March 16, 2009 do you think it would be inappropriate to call or email them today to find out our status?
