wheatGrass Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 4/4. I was initially waitlisted for one but got moved from the waitlist a couple of days later. I only applied to programs that were a really good fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We regret to inform you Posted April 29, 2012 Author Share Posted April 29, 2012 (edited) i'm happy with the funded acceptance i got and the program is an awesome fit for me, but i am kinda curious why i had such poor luck. i'd consider myself a pretty solid applicant, but maybe not.

Gneiss1 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 1 fully funded acceptance, 2 waitlists, 2 rejections. The acceptance ironically was my top choice so I am pretty happy with that haha:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stell4 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 17% Applied to 7 programs Accepted: 1 (top choice!!!) Rejected: 4 Heard nothing from: 2 My ego would have like to get accepted to more (all really), but I am in my top choice, so I guess that's all that matters.

bentharbour Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 ~83% - 5 Accepts and 1 Rejection 1 Still MIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imonedaful Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 0% so far. Still waiting on 2 of the 3 schools I applied to. I feel like the time I do find out about whether I got in or not I will have forgotten I applied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
contretemps Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 60% (3 out of 5 PhD programs) Last year obviously it was 0%, but that was for MS Programs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mallorn Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 50%, one fully funded, counting the school I need to hear back from. Pretty good I guess, but I wish all of the acceptances had been fully funded haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillary Emick Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 50%, one rejection and one well-funded acceptance. I only applied to 2 PhD programs. I had no idea how competitive it would be or I would have hedged my bets better and applied to more programs. I am grateful it worked out for me.

Ameonna Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 28.6% acceptance rate, with 2 acceptances and 5 rejections. All that matters to me, though, is the 99% chance that I will be starting classes for my doctoral degree this coming Fall, which is really exciting! As long as you get in where you'll be happy, it doesn't matter how big your rejection pile was... at least, that's my opinion on the subject. stell4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeaGirl Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 0% so far I'm still waiting on one last decision, but I don't know how likely it to be a positive one. In all likelihood, I'll trying again next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazygirl2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 10% acceptance rate. 40% interview rate, which is slightly better... unless it just implies that I'm bad at interviews (which I swear I'm not!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmokramer Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 5/6. 5 acceptances and 1 rejection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaywalker Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 22.2%...1 PhD acceptance, 1 Masters acceptance, and 7 rejections (including my dream school). But after seeing first-hand just how competitive this process is, I am more than happy with my results! I'm also at 25% for outside fellowships (accepted to 1, rejected from 3). I fully expected this rate to be 0%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnceAndFutureGrad Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 (edited) 2009: 17% (5 outright rejections, counting the consolation MA as a success). 2010: 0%. 2011: 50% (1 rejection, 1 PhD acceptance with fellowship). Not including the MA, all three years put together equals 6.67%. And more GRE and app fees than I'll ever let myself calculate Edited May 7, 2012 by OnceAndFutureGrad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
