Willows Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 I see the first acceptance has been posted. Anyone want to claim it? Not for one of my schools, but congratulations!
RandomDood Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Congratulations to whoever got the first acceptance of the season! :-) According to last years' results, Minnesota usually issued decisions starting in February...could this early acceptance hint that programs will start giving answers earlier in general? If so, I gotta go out and amass supplies. I'm not leaving my computer until March.

If so, I gotta go out and amass supplies. I'm not leaving my computer until March. I hope so. I had a grad coordinator email me well before the deadline to let me know if I could get the rest of my application in (LORs), my file would go into review immediately. Of course, I'm not holding my breath for early results, but it would be lovely. Edited January 15, 2013 by Willows
RiseofthePhoenix Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Niiiice! Congrats to whoever it was. Minnesota has a very good program. Good omen for the rest of us hopefully with more notifications to follow. Best of luck to all.
ohgoodness Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Yeah good on whoever got in Go Gophers!! I just submitted my final paper for my MA so now I can spend all my time thinking about the future and what's in store.. From my understanding - UNC has sent out acceptances in the week to come (20th) and then Duke is followingly closely. After that UM-Amherst and Princeton come around 1-2nd Feb and then we get into the crazy period.
Willows Posted January 15, 2013 Author Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) I think UT-Austin will announce on Friday. For the last 2 (3?) years they have announced on the second or third Friday in January. Now, I'd love them to prove me wrong and send them out right now! Haha.

wmnshlthsoc Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Congrats!!! Based on last years dates some schools are a little behind. I searched specifically for programs I'm interested in but to get an idea. Fall 2012 Notification Boston U 2/20- No Visit Emory 1/10 -Visit Day notification Rutgers 2/1- Phone Interview
Willows Posted January 15, 2013 Author Posted January 15, 2013 Oh, I applied to BU as well! It seems really competitive in admissions from what I've seen. Let me know if you hear anything, and I'll do the same.
rnmack Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 I also applied to Minnesota. Last year, decisions were posted the 24th, which is still 9 days from now. While I wait, I'm going to be a good American and try to decide if Minnesota sweatpants would look cute on me.

I applied to Emory as well and have been thinking the same thing...they're late! *grumble grumble*

RiseofthePhoenix Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 I really don't think too many of us will be notified that early. I'm not saying the 1/10 notifications on search results are bs, but that's probably a very early acceptance primarily through a POI who really really wanted the person in their program. Most programs seem to have weekly waves of notifications so I don't think they're late in any way. To the fellow Emory and UNC Chapel Hill applicants, I suspect that the first round of offers will probably be notified late January and the first week of February. I'm with you though. These are exciting times. Best of luck to all.
Willows Posted January 16, 2013 Author Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) There are 2 from Minnesota now. Congrats to the "other" person! Edited January 16, 2013 by Willows

Tahoma Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Hey all, I'm a longtime lurker, but I'm another one of those who received an acceptance e-mail from Minnesota. Excited as hell and breathing a sigh of relief. I didn't know I had it in me to get into a good PhD program, and I was more than slightly convinced I'd have to move back in with my parents next year. Now to hear from the other five...
AaronM Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 I got accepted to Ohio State! So Stoked! ohgoodness 1
