jane4jane4 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Have many people heard back from NYU? I still haven't --most likely a bad sign, but do you think emailing them would help? They must be quite annoyed by countless 'where is my decision' mails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They must be quite annoyed by countless 'where is my decision' mails. I emailed Prof Sanford. No reply yet. I'll let you all know if I do get a reply later today.

IRTheoryNerd Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Cazorla, I've been referencing this very useful resource, myself: http://www.ask8ball.net/ LOL. Thank you.

aecp Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) Am I going to be accepted anywhere aecp? YES! Stay positive. Fight your doubts by remembering your historical accomplishments.

packrat Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) if I were a betting man, I would bet on stanford giving peeps a buzz tomorrow evening... Much as I many of us would love this, someone on here a week or two ago (who is a current grad student there) mentioned that the adcom is meeting again tomorrow. So my guess is for Friday or early next week. But if I'm wrong, wouldn't be the first time... Edited February 12, 2014 by packrat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So my guess is for Friday or early next week. But if I'm wrong, wouldn't be the first time... Well, I guess it doesn't matter since we will all still check obviously until we hear something. I think someone mentioned that they check their e-mail every hour...honestly I'm probably at: while I'm at work: check e-mail 3 times per minute, grad admissions and forum every 15 minutes, school admin sites at least once an hour. when I'm not at work: e-mail every 15, grad forum and admissions every hour and no check of school sites. Anyone wanna claim to top that? I deleted the saved links on my browser for the schools I've heard from. Honestly, I couldn't believe how much emotions I had wrapped up in those little digital logos... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year they made calls at 8pm EST, so I wouldn't be surprised if they notified tomorrow after the meeting (if the meeting is indeed the final one).

IRToni Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Do people prefer phone calls or emails for notification? Emails. I'm awkward at phone calls even on good days... In addition, I can choose to only check my emails if I am ready for bad news (i.e. alone etc.), while a phone call can take me by surprise. Lastly, I have no idea how articulate I could be on the phone after an acceptance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cupofnimbus Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Do people prefer phone calls or emails for notification? I have no idea how my emotions will run when something happens unexpectedly, and I'm not sure the first impression I want to give a program is my stammering, blubbering, awkward thanks. Email is the more dignified option for me. IRTheoryNerd and boazczoine 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xuejia Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Do people prefer phone calls or emails for notification? Email. Nobody hears me dancing and fistbumping, I step on campus for visits with a thin veneer of professionalism intact.
