grad Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Anyone still waiting to hear from UCLA, or anyone just heard recently? (Congrats again, flowerchicken!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piper Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Still waiting and still nothing. :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laureltoosh Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I'm still waiting as well. Haven't heard anything. I don't know whether I should continue to hold out at this point, or cut my losses and start figuring out how to make my application stronger for next year.

tessa Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Still waiting, still not a single word from anyone at UCLA. I'm trying to decide if I should call and bug them again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piper Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Was thinking the same thing... This can't possibly spill over to MAY, can it?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grad Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Well, it came in the mail today. Postmarked yesterday, the letter is dated April 30. Rejection letter. I really wanted it, too, and it's really starting to sink in that now I might be moving across the country in a few months for up to two years! But I knew that when I applied, and it'll definitely be an adventure. Does anyone know about appealing graduate decisions? Or if UCLA's MLIS program accepts transfers? I'm considering trying to find a job or volunteer in a library and just re-apply next year. I do like the other schools I applied to, but for personal family reasons, it might be best for me to try and stay local. The other schools I'm considering are Rutgers, Simmons, and San Jose State if anyone has any thoughts on those schools? Thanks and best wishes to the rest of you!

laureltoosh Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Grad, I'm sorry you got rejected. I still haven't heard anything from the MLIS department. Good luck trying to figure out everything. Maybe next year will be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laureltoosh Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 Thanks. We'll see. At this point, I've kind of lost hope. I shouldn't say it, but it's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piper Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I was just wait listed today. Anyone else hear anything? How did you find out? e-mail? phone call? I'm still waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristela204 Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 An email from the department. There was no change to my status on the graduate website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piper Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Well, I finally e-mailed the program director and was told that I'm on the waitlist. Estimation of when I will hear back = indefinite. Bracing myself for rejection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bracing myself for rejection. I'm in the exact same boat. Moving on.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
