lonestarflag Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Slllloowww dayy...lots of red. It is green o'clock...I can feel it!!! Every email I get from my current university just has a hint of disappointment with it

astreaux Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 I have a sneaking suspicion the Stanford bloodbath awaits w/in the next 24 hours. Fingers crossed for a Vulcan bloodbath from Stanford instead. anxious2151, ajaxp91, kal5 and 3 others 6
loginthewoods Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Fingers crossed for a Vulcan bloodbath from Stanford instead. That is some major league level nerdiness right there, and I love it.
lonestarflag Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Has anybody heard anything about anything? ajaxp91 1

Nords Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Has anybody heard anything about anything? Nope, though I'm really hoping to still hear from UNC!
cupofnimbus Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 (edited) Waiting for my rejection from Penn State (right? That's what's left from there? ), and keeping an anxious eye on the Maryland results. And breaking open a bottle of wine with dinner! Edit: Congratulations to everyone with good news today! It is so good to see green on the board! Edited February 13, 2014 by cupofnimbus
AuldReekie Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Slllloowww dayy...lots of red. It is green o'clock...I can feel it!!! I misread this as 'gin o'clock..'
lonestarflag Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Nope, though I'm really hoping to still hear from UNC! Me too! I misread this as 'gin o'clock..' Same thing.
tinkerbell Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 I claim one of them. Congrats!! I'm still waiting though, hope to have news soon.
cane14 Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 Is it normal for POIs to want to call/skype you after you've been accepted to "chat" about the program? Not sure why the thought of skyping my POI makes me nervous, considering I probably can't be so awkward that they revoke my acceptance ha.

Not sure why the thought of skyping my POI makes me nervous, considering I probably can't be so awkward that they revoke my acceptance ha. My POI wants to skype/call as well. It's good, it's part of the process of selecting the best place for yourself. That said, it made me a bit nervous too, kind of like a blank-slatey feeling.
Orlien Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 So, it's 9:30 est & no Stanford results have popped up on the board. Guess it will be tomorrow. What a Valentine's day.
lonestarflag Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 So, it's 9:30 est & no Stanford results have popped up on the board. Guess it will be tomorrow. What a Valentine's day. Or God forbid next week. I just want to know UNC
packrat Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 So, it's 9:30 est & no Stanford results have popped up on the board. Guess it will be tomorrow. What a Valentine's day. Sort of makes me wonder what it's like to be a professor's spouse on V-Day. "Sorry honey, can't go out, gotta call these 40 admits..."
TheGnome Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 Nope no Stanford today. I mean, realistically, there is no point for me to even wait for Stanford. Still, I just want to be put out of my misery and concentrate on my current options and be happy.
Orlien Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 Sort of makes me wonder what it's like to be a professor's spouse on V-Day. "Sorry honey, can't go out, gotta call these 40 admits..." I thought it was POI calls? so realistically, it would be like, 2-3 admits per prof, right?
packrat Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 I thought it was POI calls? so realistically, it would be like, 2-3 admits per prof, right? Sorry, I was speaking generally, not just for Stanford! I think Stanford does POI calls, or whatever prof was representing each subfield on the admissions committee calls those accepted to that subfield maybe (I thought I read something of this sort several days back).

Ya, I got called by Paul Sniderman last year on Valentine's day, at around noon eastern. packrat 1
TakeMyCoffeeBlack Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 Who will be making dreams come true this Valentine's Day?
guest2401 Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 Who will be making dreams come true this Valentine's Day? Me.
MrLister_The_Sister_Fister Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 So uhhh if we haven't heard from Duke or Penn State we should assume rejections, right?
