wabbitt09 Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 I understand some folks got their acceptance emails alst week, but am told by the school that's not the end of it. Anyone hear back?
ebee Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 I got an email on the 11th as well. It said financial aid info would come by mid-march.
wabbitt09 Posted February 17, 2009 Author Posted February 17, 2009 thanks guys. Am trying to find out whether the 11th was all acceptances (if so, I'm screwed) or it will be a mix throughout the month. As far as I know, no rejections on this site yet and no more acceptance notices either...
causey Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 I got an email on the 11th as well. Official letter and financial info to follow..
wabbitt09 Posted February 18, 2009 Author Posted February 18, 2009 I called the office today to get some more clarification on whether they would be sending out more admit notices. the woman I spoke with said that they sent out decisions to the first half of the alphabet last Tuesday and that the second half would go out within the week. Sigh of relief; my last name begins with "R."

wabbitt09 Posted February 20, 2009 Author Posted February 20, 2009 accepted this morning. What a relief.
dagger Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 accepted this morning. What a relief. Congratulations! Did they send your funding info as well?
wabbitt09 Posted February 20, 2009 Author Posted February 20, 2009 no word on funding. Sounds like we hear on March 15.
ebee Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 So is anyone seriously considering going to Minny? Its location isn't ideal for me, but the program sounds very solid and they have a big International Ed program at U of MN, and I eventually want to work in international ed. Anyway, I registered for the March 30 visit day
wabbitt09 Posted February 20, 2009 Author Posted February 20, 2009 I've actually spent a lot of time in the Twin Cities area and it's fantastic. If it weren't so cold, I'd argue it would be as popular as DC, Boston, San Fran. The people really are that nice, too. It's unnerving.

It was in the 20's this morning in DC and VERY windy and I was struggling
wabbitt09 Posted February 20, 2009 Author Posted February 20, 2009 I live in DC, too. The wind is driving me bonkers.
ebee Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 I got my officially official letter from the U Mn graduate school this morning! Also participated in an accepted students online chat earlier this week, thought that was a nice idea and a good place to ask questions.
ebee Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Anyone have any better idea about when we'll hear about funding from Minnesota? I think they said mid-March which would seem like this coming week...
NebBronco Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Anyone have any better idea about when we'll hear about funding from Minnesota? I think they said mid-March which would seem like this coming week... I received my funding notice via email on Friday. Needless to say, I'm really happy with it.
ebee Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 I received my funding notice via email on Friday. Needless to say, I'm really happy with it. Congrats Neb!!!! does not look good for me
NebBronco Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Congrats Neb!!!! does not look good for me Thanks ebee. I wouldn't get too worried. I'm sure that they just started rolling out financial offers on Friday with more to come this week. Hang in there.
ebee Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Welp, got the dreaded letter today. Never really thought my GPA or GRE score would help me but I still held out some hope. Such is life!
