aGiRlCalLeDApPlE Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 So... Penn has released its decisions. Any lucky acceptances? And does anyone know if historically they release their rejections significantly later than their acceptances? I had the same question in mind, since I haven't heard from them and my application status is still the same. It scared me when I saw 3 results from Upenn one after the other. I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight until I know something
getoutofmyhouse Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 ~*~*~losing my mind~*~*~ also, hello everyone, i have been lurking for a long time, more an habitué of the french forum Hi there. I swoop in here unannounced and ask questions about Brown. That's about it.

U-Penn is indeed sending mails out but who knows, maybe it's field by field. All the best... :|

All the best... :| I was waitlisted by Toronto. Are you a Canadian or a non-Canadian? I'm waiting for the decisions of non-Canadians.
katzeschatze Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) I'd like my Brown decision any minute now... Same thing for Emory...someone marked themselves as having been rejected earlier in the month, and someone had an interview invite back in Jan. I feel as if they never even received my application.

aGiRlCalLeDApPlE Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 So, 3 acceptances and 1 waitlist from Upenn. It seems that they keep rejections for last, it doesn't look good
en plein air Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Hi yeah one of them is me. Haven't been very (read: at all) active on these threads previously, because my response to stress is to hole up in a corner. Anyway it was a v. kind e-mail to be followed by a phone call and official (snail-mail) acceptance letter, and an accepted students' weekend in late March. I second this entire post. Tough decisions ahead....
Bennett Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I second this entire post. Tough decisions ahead.... Where else have you been accepted, and what are your thoughts on Penn? (For the record: I'm on the waitlist at Minnesota and am still waiting for a final response from Duke, after 2 rounds of interviews and a visit there last week; Penn is thus my first unambiguous "yes".)

(For the record: I'm on the waitlist at Minnesota and am still waiting for a final response from Duke, after 2 rounds of interviews and a visit there last week; Penn is thus my first unambiguous "yes".) The other unequivocal 'yes' was Chicago. Two rounds of interviews?! That sounds very stressful. I'm about 99% certain I will choose Chicago, but Penn does look like a superb program, and I feel like I should at least go to their recruitment weekend to meet people and case the joint before I make the final decision. Are you planning to go?
winged_words Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Has anyone heard from Princeton? Does anyone have information with regard to their admissions process?

Are you planning to go? It was stressful! And yes, I'm certainly going to the recruitment weekend; in any case I live in PA so it's an easy trip. As to choices, I'm still not sure; I work on Marxism and critical theory so Duke is in some ways a natural fit, but Pennsylvania has a lot going for it as well. Decisions, indeed...
getoutofmyhouse Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Has anyone heard from Princeton? Does anyone have information with regard to their admissions process? I haven't. Hopefully we'll hear from them by next Friday.
posteggiesm Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Has anyone heard anything from GC CUNY or Rutgers? Hi (I am newish but...). I got unofficially accepted into Rutgers's comparative literature program over the phone last week. I think, though, that they are still in the process of sending out notifications/interviewing now, judging from what the DGS told me when I talked to her again this week. Good luck with both! bateauivre 1
aGiRlCalLeDApPlE Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Is anyone still waiting for Upenn comp. lit? Do you know if they send e-mail for rejections too? Or they will choose to send letters? So cruel !!!
wmb Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Is anyone still waiting for Upenn comp. lit? Do you know if they send e-mail for rejections too? Or they will choose to send letters? So cruel !!! I'm still waiting... Wish they would send all decisions at once. aGiRlCalLeDApPlE 1

Congratulations! I will check the status of my application and hope for the best...
aGiRlCalLeDApPlE Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I'm still waiting... Wish they would send all decisions at once. Have you tried to contact them? I e-mailed them a few days ago but they didn't respond.
getoutofmyhouse Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Oh my god, yes! It looks like historically they notified weeks ago Ahem... ??????????
Marie-Luise Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Ahem... ?????????? Have you heard from any of your programmes?
getoutofmyhouse Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Have you heard from any of your programmes? Rejected by Northwestern. Waitlisted by Toronto. Five more TBD. I'm impatient :-)
aGiRlCalLeDApPlE Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 It hurts so much to be rejected by your first choice. And they don't even bother to e-mail
aGiRlCalLeDApPlE Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Anybody there??? Why Upenn suddenly appeared yesterday then suddenly disappeared??? I already e-mailed them last week and I don't think it's a good idea to e-mail them again. I'm very hopeless after receiving my first rejection from UT today. What can I do? Waiting gets harder and harder every second.
red&blue Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Hello, I have a question for you all: how do you consider CUNY for Comparative Literature compared to other schools? Thanks. Red&Blue
posteggiesm Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 It hurts so much to be rejected by your first choice. And they don't even bother to e-mail Hi Rose Egypt. I'm in a similar situation to you. I e-mailed the program coordinator regarding an issue with my app a few days ago, though, and I got an automatic message saying that everyone will be notified by March 15.... let's hold on to that thread of hope together. aGiRlCalLeDApPlE 1
Gustav Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 Anyone want to claim the Oregon acceptance on the results board? I applied there but haven't heard back. Another silent weekend is coming...
