Berkeley Cognitive

[liszt85]

Has anybody heard from Berkeley Psychology as yet? The results page show a few interview invitations extended to school psychology and social psychology applicants. What about the cognitive section? Its driving me nuts, I've emailed them about thrice this past week and there's been no response. Do you think this implies that my application has been rejected? Do they send out rejection emails?

They had sent me a link to a status page ages back. I happened to notice it only a few days back. The administrator had left me a note which said that my transcripts hadn't been received and also requested me to tell them the name of another professor who I'd like to work with since Prof X was no longer a faculty member at UCB. I have now emailed the administrator those details. I'm pretty sure they received my transcripts because I have evidence that they signed for it from my courier service. I also have email confirmation from UCB that they received a scanned version of my latest transcript (which came out after I'd submitted my application). UCB is probably the only place I'd prefer above Northwestern, McMaster and Ohio State (who have all mailed me saying that my name would be recommended to the graduate school for admission), so this is driving me crazy and NU has been pressurizing me to start my visa application process. Please do let me know if any of you have an idea about why UCB's taking so long and if they send rejection emails (unlike MIT for BCS which doesn't send out rejection emails).
