badgerina Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 I can get Office very cheap. I'm not sure my institution covers it, but my husband can get it from work cheap I'm peeking online at various reviews of computers while pretending to finish my essay I'm going to try to go with a very small one, as carrying it around gets heavy. Maybe once I hear from more schools I'll head out to Best Buy see what they have in stock and what they can tell me. I'm really grateful for your advice, now that's one less huge choice to make!

NAU (Northern AZ), Teachers College, Baylor, TCU, Vanderbilt. At this point, I've really narrowed it down to 2-- UNC and another that I haven't heard from. I won't be heartbroken if I am rejected from all 7 schools, but I would just like to know! Edited March 4, 2013 by katieliz456

eavo Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Hey--I just discovered this forum. I have applied to ECU and UNC. Looks like most everyone has heard from UNC. I have heard nothing and can't find anything on website. Has everyone else received a decision?

It isn't the professional version, but it did include Word, Excel and PowerPoint. I've had a Mac for years, but for those exclusive Windows-only items, I've installed a virtual Windows drive on my Mac. Best of both worlds. Seconded. Microsoft runs deals for students as well. I got Office Ultimate in my undergrad for 60 bucks. Universities also often have huge discounts for other software (Adobe Photoshop, etc).

No. However, we are pretty sure that the rest of the decisions are split between wait lists and rejections. Another poster on the forum suggested e-mailing the program to have your decision expedited.
queenleblanc Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Yep, When I emailed Ina Diana at UNC about status of applications, she said ALL decisions had been made. So, at this point, I would start emailing her. The people in the graduate school admin office who update the computer system are probably VERY busy with uploading status updates from all of the MANY programs in graduate studies that UNC has. Best of luck to you, Eavo!

SLPjmar Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 I was so sure I would be hearing something today. Harumph.

However, about 2-3 hours after I emailed her and she replied, I got an email from UNC grad school that my application status was available online (in the apply yourself website). If you haven't checked the AY site with your crazy number/letter combo login, check there first, then contact Ms. Diana. I have a feeling that she made a call to get the decision uploaded more quickly, despite the fact that mine was a rejection. :-(

queenleblanc Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 I don't know if this is a rational paranoia or not ... our next-door neighbor has her mail on hold while she is out of state at her other house. The mailbox was empty today. Gosh I hope the postman didn't confuse which mail to hold and which mail to deliver...!!!!

NUslp Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 This might sound silly, but for those of you who got the email from BU about your acceptance, was it personally addressed to you or like a mass email type of thing? Not sure if I should start feeling depressed about not getting one!
