policygrrl Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 in the "under 20 %" club. am on the cusp of the 'whatever' stage...sigh!
ManleyQ Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 I'm waitlisted!! Does anyone know if the waitlist is ranked? Now I won't know until the summer, more waiting AGHh.. At least there's still hope, I guess. Hey,judging from the different 'off-waitlist' time, I guess it must be ranked
Dreams Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 I sent a request asking for my decision. We will see if they bite :twisted:
WishinnHoping Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 First the 20% club and now the under-20%?!! What are they DOING to us? Aaaaarrrggghhh!!!! I'm just praying the decision comes today... I don't think I can wait till Monday Funny thing is, I got accepted into Sciences Po waaayyyy back in November, and they're probably going to offer me money (damn! I forgot I'm waiting on that too!).. so I'll probably head off to Paris anyway. Unless Columbia offers me enough to be able to attend. I wonder if they're done with the "acceptance with funding" offers.. anyone else feel like we're now the do-we-take-her-or-not bunch? Bah. I'm soooooo depressed already
NadirLineage Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 I'm confident they'll send out the rest of the decisions today. Looks like some are already starting to trickle out again. Let the madness continue!
sas Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 I hope you're right NadirLineage. Still nothing here, though...
escincau Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Nothing here either... but I suppose they could post decisions anytime today.
escincau Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 To the people who posted that they received their decisions today-Did you guys get an email or anything and also, were you actually accepted/rejected yesterday and just posted the result today?
Godiva Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Got In!! E-mail wasn't sent, just checked website. Being part of the last 20% really sucked and I am so grateful for this website because I had people in my situation who could relate.
escincau Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 ^^^ Wow Congrats! Ok, so anyone else with me in the .0000001% club?
Jeppe Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 ^^^ Wow Congrats! Ok, so anyone else with me in the .0000001% club? Congrats Godiva! And yeah, I'm still doing the waiting game as well.
gizmooow Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 I'm still here... can't believe they actually still give out rejections after this long wait... I wish they looked at this forum and figured out how so many ppl are saying "got in but ain't going bcz it's too expensive", so that they just give the rest of us waitlisted, at the least yup, I'm day-dreamin'
MaterialRight30 Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 i'm in the 0.0001% club as well. Youpi they must have been thinking a lot about our applications... hang on ! :!:
mad.am.anxiety Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Still waiting! And congrats to those who got in! Maybe there's a special ice cream party we all get invited to if we have to wait this long. That's it! They're still drawing up our ice cream party invitations.
escincau Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 ^^^ At this point, I'm not settling for anything less than a top shelf drink yourself into oblivion party...
Jeppe Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 ^^^ At this point, I'm not settling for anything less than a top shelf drink yourself into oblivion party... Count me in.
Godiva Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Congrats Godiva! And yeah, I'm still doing the waiting game as well. Thanks!
NadirLineage Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Yeah, tonight will definitely involve a celebration or an attempt to erase the memory of the past two weeks from my mind. Either way, excessive amounts of drinking will be involved.
irgraduatedr Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 I had to deal with this insanity for a week. I can't imagine having to wait two weeks. That's just plain wrong! Hopefully you guys get in and get some funding for all your worrying. Good luck!
policygrrl Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 congrats to those of you who have just heard! keeps my sliver of hope alive. am in .0000001% too. need, drink, now...
mad.am.anxiety Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 I can't believe this... I've been waitlisted. I'm happy to have the chance... but now I have to wait more? Crap.
WishinnHoping Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Tried calling the Admissions office today. Got a polite pre-recorded message asking me to leave my name and number and someone would get back to me A special Hoy There! to all my fellow .0000001%-ers Still keeping my fingers crossed that we hear by end of today. And not tear our hair out over the weekend. How insensitive is it that they're still handing out rejections?! Like just waitlist! I'm sooooooooooooooooo nervous.
verito Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Just got the answer ! got accepted ! No funding though, but for now i m just going to be happy a little bit after all this wait. The decision was posted on the website ( same for GWU) and I did not receive anything by e-mail. Thing is you have to scroll down and then, you will see the link. Don't do like me and check the " message center" Anyhow, congrats to all who got admitted ! and good luck to those who are still waiting ! As for those waitlisted, i m pretty sure you still stand a very good chance given that the program is super expensive ( and they re raising tuition) and loans are scarce...
escincau Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Waitlisted...I can't believe I had to wait two and a half weeks longer for that...
NadirLineage Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Haha... I'll be super pissed too if I get a waitlist notification. I've been opening up my rejection notification from last year as practice for what's to come.
