violettebleue Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 Hey! I am waitlisted by Delaware, and it is said that I do not have a chance unless two people reject their offers. Could anyone tell me about my chances? Who gets offer from Delaware and are you going to reject it? Thanks a lot!!
anyli_t Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 Hey! I doubt this is of much help, as I don't have specifics. But I was waitlisted, then about to be accepted (they said there were nearly sure they'd find funding for me), but I withdrew from my spot. So maybe that's one of the two you need? I wish I knew more, but they didn't tell me a whole lot. But good luck! There's some really cool work being done in that department.

I was told that I am #2 on the list and #1 do not wish to get in. I guess you are the #1!?? You must be a strong applicant, judging from your sooooo many offers! Congratulations! And it helps that you withdrew from your spot at Delaware, because I may have better chances! Wish me luck! By the way, which program is your final choice?

experi-mentalist Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Hi Everyone, I have been accepted to UDel with full funding (TAship tuition, stipend, partial health care). I visited the program a few weeks ago, and I was very impressed. It's a great program in my opinion. The faculty was great, very enthusiastic about my research, and I got along really well with the students in the program. It seems like a good fit for my interests (syntax, psycholinguistics, lg. acquisition, and adult processing). Right now, I do have offers from other programs, but I am seriously considering accepting UDel's offer. To the others that have been admitted: have you visited? if so, what was impression of the program, the profs, the students, the campus, newark?

Glad to hear that you love the program. I like it too, and my research interest aligns very closely with that of Prof. Golinkoff. However, I am not as lucky as you are; I am just waitlisted. Whether I could be accepted relies on the decision of you guys who already got offers. I kind of hope that one of you guys could reject Delaware so that I could get in, haha. Anyway, good luck and wish you all the best!
hotlatte Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 Congrats Experi-mentalist. I'm envious you got offered wih full funding. I got the offer too (by mid-March) but without funding. Wondering why anyli_t was waitlisted with a possibility of funding...Anyway, I was impressed by Gaby and Jeff who interviewed me over the phone. I think I will receive the offer. So Experi-mentalist, perhaps we will see each other in Newark.

experi-mentalist Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 I have decided to accept an offer from Maryland. I hope this opens a spot for someone at Udel! Best of luck to everyone.
