Carlpolisci Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 ....my columbia status still says submitted? Am I looking in the wrong place?? Ince you open the application you should see something along the lines of "has been updated". There's another link. But it's probably not good news :/
cane14 Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Mine still just says submitted. Did anyone check that they wanted to be considered for the MA program?
mtbssd Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) Mine still just says submitted. Did anyone check that they wanted to be considered for the MA program? Same thing is happening to me. I sent them an email with my reference code but I'm thinking we should basically assume rejection. Edit: email from Columbia: "All students admitted or placed on the waitlist were contacted by the department via email last week. Official notices from the graduate school will be going out to everyone else this week." Edited February 24, 2014 by mtbssd
cooperstreet Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Yeah if anyone checked that they want to be considered for the MA program, you're going to be waiting a long time for those results. They did send out the admitted students welcome email last week, so if you haven't heard anything from Columbia by now, I think its safe to say you're rejected from the PhD program. MA is another matter though.
puddle Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 The Yale admit list is out (shared with the department) and many will receive emails from grad students or profs in their field. Official admits and rejections are handled by the university and will come later. Good luck to all. packrat and jeudepaume 2
anxious2151 Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Emailed a professor and to inquire about yale, and received official confirmation of rejection. Still waiting for harvard, but I would not take that over columbia so I guess this season is it for me! Incredibly grateful for the schools to which I've been accepted I wish everyone the best of luck for any schools that are still out there! NYCBluenose 1

Nords Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Heard that Syracuse should be notifying by the end of this week. If anyone else has any more detailed information, please speak up =)
puddle Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 'Will receive' means not everyone has received info yet? Some professors may not have contacted students yet... most are unlikely to until at least later in the day today. It's not over until the fat lady sings... some students only found out by official email from Yale last year. That Said, decisions have been made. Cazorla 1

It's not over until the fat lady sings... some students only found out by official email from Yale last year. That Said, decisions have been made. Thanks a lot! Last question--would it make sense to email the DGS?
jane4jane4 Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Didn't Chicago say that they would send out rejections by the 18th? It's kind of funny how terrible they have been throughout this whole process. Yep they had said that. They're quite bad with the apps, you're right!
puddle Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 The DGS is pretty busy. i would just wait it out (painful, i know). If you have been dealing with a specific professor or know a student in the department, go ahead and email them. lt does not seem right for me to tell strangers. Sorry!

Do you know when the grad school notifies officially?
puddle Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Thanks puddle! Do you know when the grad school notifies officially? No idea. It was 2 weeks between my unofficial email and official letter ...l thought for sure they had made a mistake because of the delay. Good luck, all.
cupofnimbus Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) Cheers to the funny person on the board re: UPenn! Official telegram from Benjamin Franklin apologizing on behalf of the admissions committee for the long wait. Some committee members have been stuck in Valley Forge because of snow. Others have been poisoned by cheesesteaks tampered with by the Redcoats. Edited February 24, 2014 by cupofnimbus silver_lining, qeta, Cazorla and 1 other 4
IR IR IR PhD Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) Hahaha they took that post down very quick. Oh boredom at work... (not that I officially claim any responsibility) Edited February 24, 2014 by IR IR IR PhD IRTheoryNerd 1
cupofnimbus Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) Hahaha they took down that post down very quick. Oh boredom at work... (not that I officially claim any responsibility) SIGH. I thought it was very good! (And it helps the mid-afternoon tired at work much more than this tea I have!) Probably a joke, right? Not even a joke from the adcom, letting us know they're still out there? Edited February 24, 2014 by cupofnimbus
packrat Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Is Yale usually consistent with funding amounts? The unofficial email I received said last year's stipend was $28,400. Are all admitted offered that, and is it likely to be the same this year?
IR IR IR PhD Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 SIGH. I thought it was very good! (And it helps the boredom at work much more than this tea I have!) Probably a joke, right? Not even a joke from the adcom, letting us know they're still out there? Sadly I am just an applicant. I called Penn a few weeks ago and they said results would be out in February. Time is running out. Clearly, so is our sanity.
cooperstreet Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 I'd be shocked if we didn't hear from Penn this week.

RCD2 Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Fore veryone who is still waiting for MIT: I received my official offer letter today (by fedex, it was sent to my permanent address in Europe), so expect to get your results during the next few days. TorrentOfArdentPathos 1
