PhDreams Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 I hope you get in. Not sure why someone negative rep you? Lol .. I don't know either. But I guess I was right about hearing something! I got in today!!! YAY! Hope everyone starts getting their good news soon! Bearcat1 and semperfi101 2
PhDreams Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 That's Great! So jealous lol, I didn't even apply yet. Hope you do well Thank you!!! I'm sure you will have your pick from many great programs next year when you apply!!!!
overlyresearched Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Did anyone apply to the Berkeley JSP (Jurisprudence of Social Policy) program? I haven't seen anyone discuss it recently in here, in Sociology, Poli Sci or even Law. Just curious.
thmp945 Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 If UCI sent out their acceptance letters today I guess that means I didn't get in because I didn't hear anything Congrats to PhDreams though. Do schools normally send out rejection letters too? Or are you just to assume that you've been rejected when you don't hear anything?

Do schools normally send out rejection letters too? Or are you just to assume that you've been rejected when you don't hear anything? Aww thanks. I've had different experiences. I already was rejected from UCLA and I thought that it was really early to receive something from them. However, I didn't get an interview from NYU yesterday so I basically decided I didn't get in. Some programs are pretty uniform in the way they inform- acceptances first and then rejections. Sometimes waitlists are left in limbo. Some programs dont have waitlists. In short, I think it's hard to say unless you look at the results page to make an educated guess about the patterns you see.
Wicked_Problem Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 PhDreams please confirm, but it was a phone call, followed by an informal email, not a letter.
PhDreams Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 PhDreams please confirm, but it was a phone call, followed by an informal email, not a letter. Phone call (voice mail) from the Department Chair congratulating me on my acceptance. Followed by email reiterating facts from the vm and asking to schedule a time to speak. Still walking on clouds!
thmp945 Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Looking through the survey results (http://thegradcafe.com/survey/index.php), it does appear that UCI sends out rejection letters via regular postal mail. The survey results show that there were a couple rejection letters received last year on 20 Feb and 3 Mar. So it does appear that they stagger their acceptance/rejection notices somewhat. I guess I won't give up hope just yet
Wicked_Problem Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Based on their website, and ignoring attrition, UCI CLS cohorts sizes were: 12-13 (9), 11-12 (7), 10-11 (9), 09-10 (5), 08-09 (14), 07-08 (8) Zsick 1
PhDreams Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 I just received an email from the graduate coordinator at UCI for a school visit in March. We were informed to confirm by this Monday. It seems like that might mean that all invites were sent out.

I DID get an acceptance to another program today that I was equally hoping for, so that has helped ease my anxiety. Although I am still waiting to hear back from my top choice... PhDreams 1

Wicked_Problem Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Zsick, Did you post your acceptance? Congratulations, by the way.
Zsick Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Zsick, Did you post your acceptance? Congratulations, by the way. I did, but it was for a sociology program. I generally applied to Crim programs that had a sociology emphasis and sociology programs that had a crim emphasis. Thanks

Panache Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 Hi politica, Have you heard anything back from your programs. I was asked to interview for CUNY, SUNY-Albany and was admitted to Rutgers University. It would be interesting to hear if anyone has heard anything back yet.
