SocInTheCity Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Well, I looked and based on last year, it was a bunch of acceptances in one week, a bunch of declines in the next week, and then various mixed results until April.  So until we know...we really don't know.  GOOD LUCK!

riverscuomo Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) I'll claim the second UCLA acceptance - got a call a couple of hours ago. I'm obviously thrilled! Edit: I would guess that calling admits leads to a wider variance in the notification time than sending e-mails - I'm sure they're not done contacting people yet.

SocInTheCity Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 That's great; congrats! I'm glad it's a real person so I can start to process this as a possible no if I don't hear soon. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SocInTheCity Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 And I hate to bombard you with questions...but was the call from the department secretary or a faculty member? Â Thanks for sharing insight into the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinoysoc Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I know I've been so crazy about finding out decisions. But I have a serious question: How do late materials in application packet affect decisions? For some reason, two materials for my UMD College Park application never made it (writing sample & transcripts). I'm getting worried because I've been getting e-mails from the POI stating that they never arrived. The waiting PLUS this last minute things are freaking the crap out of me : ( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riverscuomo Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Thanks y'all! odeta - I submitted my applications a day or two before the deadline. I'm pretty sure they don't use rolling admissions, but there may be "rolling notifications". ChicagoHusker - the call was from a faculty member.

allhandsonthebadone Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) Pinoy- Â Things were slow going for me at CUNY and UBC. I called up the departments and they allowed me to send unofficial transcripts and GRE scores as place holders. I also included e-receipts to prove I sent the requests long in advance of the due dates. Try to explain your situation and see if you can work something out like that. Good luck!

SocInTheCity Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Another Davis admit. It's okay. I am sure your acceptance will be there in no time. SocGirl2013 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlu438 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 The waiting is killing me a lot more than I thought it would!! Colorado State doesn't usually contact people til the end of February from what I've seen... Another month of this, eek. Saying that, congratulations to everyone so far with an interview or acceptance!! Whatever the opposite of schadenfreude is, I'm experiencing that right now! Really exciting seeing the results roll in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SocInTheCity Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) The first rejection was posted today. Whoever that was, you may be the first but you certainly won't be the last. Thanks for posting so people are aware that rejections are, indeed, going out with the acceptances. Â Â A January 8 UCLA acceptance? Â Anyone care to claim?

SheWrote Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I just saw a UNC acceptance. The dates match up with historic notification times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maleficent999 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I was diagnosed with the swine flu today. Awesome. Keep yourselves healthy out there, applicants! The stress can really f*ck you up. I've been banned from work for the rest of the week so my pocketbook is crying a little. The silver lining is that if I get an acceptance by the end of the week (unlikely) I won't have to hide my excitement at work. Keep your fingers crossed for me.
