mikers86 Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 I think I might force myself to leave the house and do some errands so not to worry (as much) about the 3 rejections. addictedtococoa 1
iExcelAtMicrosoftPuns Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 I think I might force myself to leave the house and do some errands so not to worry (as much) about the 3 rejections. Nothing any of us can do about it now... unless you've been sandbagging and you have some super-powers.
despejado Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Do they just send rejections in some arbitrary order? Maybe alphabetically...? I keep refreshing my email. Taking it as a good sign for now that nothing is there.

Taking it as a good sign for now that nothing is there. I think they send them out based on the least amount of "status page" views. mikers86 and bennoarchimboldi 2
despejado Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Â I think they send them out based on the least amount of "status page" views. Â Â Hahaha well I really haven't checked mine at all, so that bodes well. Thanks
mikers86 Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 And there's an acceptance. Hmmm. Well, fingers crossed still. despejado 1
Katia_chan Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 We should know something soon...they seem to accept a fair chunk, so we'll know when things start pouring in... Â *returns to stare at inbox*
mikers86 Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 I have to remind myself not everyone uses this site. Which might make this worse on my sanity...
Katia_chan Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 ...and it's starting to look like the flood. Â Dammit. Â Given that every Email comes out the same day, does anyone have any idea if it's, like, a mass Email? Â It seems so consistent and fast...
despejado Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 I have no idea.. I'm hoping for at least a wait list. Fingers still crossed.
iExcelAtMicrosoftPuns Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Folks - sometimes it takes longer. Have a ginger ale and relax. If not Austin at least somewhere else.
mikers86 Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Well, there's always the possibility of being wait listed.
despejado Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Hoping that's what happens for both of us. Â Well, there's always the possibility of being wait listed.
mikers86 Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 I mean, I ultimately can't complain since I have an acceptance. But UT was my top choice.
iExcelAtMicrosoftPuns Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Looks like we're still left waiting.
Tweedledumb Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Looks like one of the acceptances won't be attending though, so that might be kinda good? Maybe? I don't know, I'm grasping at anything these days lol iExcelAtMicrosoftPuns 1
Katia_chan Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 They did say they take a lot from their waitlist.... Â Now if we can just get on that.
cloudofunknowing Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Hi, everyone - I'm one of the ones who posted an acceptance to UT-Austin earlier today. I received an e-mail from the Director of Graduate Studies around 5pm &, within the past hour or so, received an automated e-mail from the ApplyYourself letting me know that a decision had been made on my application. So while I can't speak to when other notifications are going to be sent (waitlist, etc) - because I haven't been in direct communication with anyone there - I would think that they'll be forthcoming very, very soon. Here's hoping for good news for each of you! Katia_chan 1
subjunctivity Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Chiming in to second what cloudofunknowing said - I only heard from the school this evening (2/13) around 7pm est. I imagine they should be in contact regardless of decision soon!

I imagine they should be in contact regardless of decision soon! Soon would be nice - although "be careful what you wish for". It would be a shame to not at least land on the wait list
iExcelAtMicrosoftPuns Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 More rejections? None of my friends though right? Right- my friends are still good?
iExcelAtMicrosoftPuns Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 This friend is still good! Whew! We're still in the clear.
