ray323 Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 I just saw someone got rejected from the OSU higher education program. According to the post, the result was from the website, which I immediately checked but saw 'in review' still. Is there some other people out there who heard anything from OSU?? FYI, I applied to PhD program at school of teaching and learning.
Guest HEPhD13 Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 i received an e-mail letting me know that I was on the wait list-- I applied for the HESA PhD.
ray323 Posted January 30, 2013 Author Posted January 30, 2013 Oh thanks for sharing the information! Can I ask you when you got the email?
Guest HEPhD13 Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 The email I received was on January 28th. It was just a generic mass-emailed message that said I had been selected for the wait list and would not be interviewed. If I would like to stay on the wait list, I should email to let them know. I'm pretty sure that the HESA program runs on a different schedule than the other education programs so there is still tons of hope for you! Good luck!!
idontlikecoffee Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 I got a status update on the web-site and then received an e-mail the day after. "In review" status stays there for a while. Even though I am admitted I still have "in review" status because it is under financial review. Make sure to check the details and it will show more details. I applied for PhD in QREM.

Where do you see the "in review" status? My application still just says submitted. Nevermind! Found it. Edited February 5, 2013 by HEPhD13
ray323 Posted February 6, 2013 Author Posted February 6, 2013 Oh, thanks! When you said you got a status update, did your status said you were admitted? And, can I ask you when you got the email and was it from your POI or from the department? I'm sorry for bombarding you with so many questions! I haven't heard anything till now... and I'm getting nervous and even depressed a little!! I got a status update on the web-site and then received an e-mail the day after.

idontlikecoffee Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 My application status still says in review because it is under financial review. It says that my application has been academically approved. I got the e-mail from the Office of Graduate Studies. I think you shouldn't be nervous I have a friend who applied to the same department for a different concentration she still hasn't heard back either. I hadn't indicated any POI on my application form but I did get an email from the director of the student services (or someone with a similar title) saying that the department has recommended my admission. The email also said that my transcript is missing. So I don't think they contact anyone before the status is changed online. I think the only reason they contacted me was because my transcript was missing. I know it is hard to keep sane while waiting for results but I think it helps not to read too much on the forum Good luck
ray323 Posted February 7, 2013 Author Posted February 7, 2013 OOOOOOOOOO!! my status says "Your application has been academically approved and is now in Financial Review. Items with a status of Incomplete are still needed by the office listed in the Contact column." too!! Does this mean I'm admitted??? Please bear with me... this is my second round of application and my first official news was a rejection so I don't know what an 'acceptance' looks like!!
ray323 Posted February 7, 2013 Author Posted February 7, 2013 Thanks so much, idontlikecoffee!!! I just got the email that the graduate committee recommended me for admission and they need the financial documents! (I don't know if this is required only for international students...) Do you happen to know how to find out about funding? should we just wait? I can't believe I got the admission!!!
idontlikecoffee Posted February 7, 2013 Posted February 7, 2013 Yes we should wait to hear on funding. Then you need to get a bank letter depending on the amount they offer. Then all that gets attached to your I-20 which you will use to get in to the country along with your visa.
