monkeefugg Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 It seems that Jay Bernstein at NSSR philosophy has been emailing/phoning acceptees to inform them So I e-mailed to find out my decision and I received this reply: "apologies. at present i do not have a decision about your case on my list. i will be going in to the university tomorrow, and hopefully i will be able to provide more information about the state of your application. i am cc-ing this letter to the director of admissions. apologies again. best, j.m. bernstein" What does this mean? Does this mean he merely doesn't have the info re: my decision, or that they haven't even decided on me yet? Could it be that he only has a list of acceptees, and the fact that I'm not on it = rejection? What's going on?!
miratrix Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 I think it means he doesn't know anything about the current status of your application, whether there is a decision or what it might be, but he will check to find out. I would analyze it as "no news."

monkeefugg Posted March 18, 2009 Author Posted March 18, 2009 so JMB just replied and said this: you should be hearing from our admissions office within the next few days. apologies for the delay. best, j.m. bernstein what does this mean?????? If I was rejected, wouldnt he have told me? It must be the case that they haven't decided yet, or I'm on some sort of waitlist, right?? AHHHH!!!

monkeefugg Posted March 18, 2009 Author Posted March 18, 2009 "adcom" sounds soo Orwellian. like a cold assoc with deisgns on the last kernel of human spirit I've left HORRIBLE, utterly horrible
nandelle Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 AHH that's so frustrating. I'm sorry and hope it's good news!
