magiec Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 I am going into panic mode waiting to hear back from schools. When people applied to UCLA, did you receive confirmation e-mails stating they received your transcripts / GREs? I was looking back on past forums for the previous years and they said they received these confirmation e-mails and I did not. I am trying to refrain from panicking and calling the school, even though it is completely late.
Cat Face Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Same here. I'm checking my email multiple times a day. They probably won't let us know until February 28th. I wrote an email asking about the decision date few days ago. They also said they will release the results by the end of Feb. Seems like the only thing we can do now is waiting...
CCR1 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Re: UCLA. I applied by the Dec 15th deadline and would only hear back if I inquired about particular materials. I wanted to confirm they had received my final transcripts and they did respond. They never sent the GRE email confirmation that they stated they would send. Also -- last year applicants got their decisions from mid-February through April. Not yet time to panic, more than likely. It's really early. :-)
ljaffe19 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Has anyone heard from UIC?I did! I was accepted Snail Mail
kmed Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 @paige_elizabeth 10 @magiec I applied by the December 15 deadline and I heard back via phone. Good luck!
basquiat81 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Can I do that? I didn't know you could withdraw.. :/ Yes, I think from what I've read from past forums people have done that especially with CSULA since they only give you 2 weeks to accept from the moment they send out an acceptance letter.
paige_elizabeth10 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 @paige_elizabeth 10 @magiec I applied by the December 15 deadline and I heard back via phone. Good luck! Great, thanks for the response. I applied to the January deadline...so I probably won't be hearing back for a while. I'm worried that my chances became significantly lower because I applied late(ish). Ugh
magiec Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Great, thanks for the response. I applied to the January deadline...so I probably won't be hearing back for a while. I'm worried that my chances became significantly lower because I applied late(ish). Ugh I called today regarding my application and Lance Fooks was super nice. He let me know whether or not my application as been reviewed or not. I wouldn't worry about your chances being lower since the fellowship deadline applied to all graduate programs! It seems like it was just a UCLA general deadline if you wanted fellowship considerations.
magiec Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 & Thanks @kmed for sharing! Congrats again for getting in!
MSWgradcandidate Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Oh definitely, without a doubt! I can't wait! I will probably be seeing you there! Still waiting to hear from Fordham and see if they also give me some scholarship funds, and interview with Hunter is coming up soon. Will keep u posted since we may very well be classmates!
Atefeh Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Congrats to everyone hearing great news. I am still patiently waiting on University of Md, Salisbury and SUNY..ahhhh..god help me!
citychild Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 ^^ You applied to SUNY Buffalo? My response was quick...
MH0709 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Has anyone heard from Columbia yet? I got an email back in December stating that they typically send out decisions in early March. I also completed my FAFSA last week since they emailed requesting that we do so by Feb 15th.
Kim K Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 I got an email back in December stating that they typically send out decisions in early March. I also completed my FAFSA last week since they emailed requesting that we do so by Feb 15th. I just heard from Columbia about half an hour ago via email - accepted! They said my decision was ready to view and directed me to sign into the application website. You have to scroll down when you sign in to find the "view decision" link - I signed in expecting to see it right away at the top of the page and was holding my breath! They need my decision by 3/30 and have a $400 deposit. I'm still waiting for a few schools to get back to me so hopefully by 3/30 I'll have a better idea of where I want to go. Good luck everyone, hope you hear soon! callyw22 1
MH0709 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Just got my acceptance to Columbia too!!! Yay! Guess I was wrong about March! callyw22 1

Good luck everyone, hope you hear soon! My letter has the same info and also states that scholarship info will be emailed in the next two weeks. That is key for me- otherwise my scholarship to NYU is too good to pass up! Congrats!!
bukowski Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Accepted to Penn, Michigan, NYU and Columbia. Very exciting times! Congratulations to everyone callyw22 1
gradschoolmom Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I wish USC would hurry and release results. Me too. I applied to Virtual campus; was told a 2-6 week wait. Entering week 3. Seems like forever ago that I worked on my app and SOP! (it was December but man!)
Perky ash Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Accepted to Penn, Michigan, NYU and Columbia. Very exciting times! Congratulations to everyone Hi congrats to the news! I was wondering what is your gpa and all that because I am getting super scared because I applied to two of the same schools as you but didnt receive any emails.
psychbabe Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 For those who got into columbia when did you all apply? I didn't apply until the deadline 1/3 but my app was completed on 1/8 and ihant heard anything. I'm getting very nervous wa
CrazyColleen Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Everyone that got into Columbia today, congrats!! I was wondering, did you just apply by the January 3rd deadline or did you apply earlier? I'm worried I didn't get in since I didn't get the email today!
