Yeah, just DePaul and Penn but judging from some of the invites you are already receiving, your stats might be significantly higher than mine haha.

Nice! Oh, I don't know about that. I never really understand the weight different aspects of the application have on everything! I am sure it will work out for you! Let me know if you have any further questions! Best of luck!

Who was your poi?

In my essay, I identified Dr. Converse, Dr. Gabrenya, and Dr. Wildman as my main POIs, but received the email to set up a phone interview from an associate professor with the department.

Does anyone have any info on the PHD programs at UGA and NC State? Also one quick question about the process. I saw on the results search that UGA had one acceptance and NC State has two acceptances. Do programs normally send out all first round offers at once, or do specific professors send out their offers at their own convenience? Just curious because I have not received an acceptance, rejection or waitlist notification yet and I am trying to wrap my head around how this works.

 

On a side note I have received my first offer into the MA program at Tulsa!

 

Thanks for your time!

Hi Alecno, may I ask your POIs at BGSU and Akron, thanks :)  (via personal message)

Are there interviews at Akron?

Could the person who wrote on the results board that they were wait listed at Clemson please PM me their POI?? And do you know if first round offers have already been extended?

Hey,

 

I'm currently a first year in I/O here at UGA. UGA does not extend acceptances at the same time. Each professor does it on their own time, and as of now there are still professors who plan to take a student and have not extended an offer to anyone yet, so just hang in there. NC State: I don't know officially because I'm obviously not there, but I did apply there last year. I didn't hear from them until April that I was on the "final wait list" to get in and I just replied to take me off because I had already accepted UGA's offer. It just depends on the school and even if someone is accepted to a program they can still reject it/haven't necessarily accepted it yet, so I would never assume rejection from a program unless you officially get news of that.

 

Hope that helps!

What's the deal with the Colorado State post on the Results Board? Not much info... Maybe they're only currently contacting people who live out of state to plan out flights? Anyone hear about the open house dates?

I haven't heard anything.  Not from them or from NCSU or from Virginia Tech.  I've seen results posted for those schools, but not very many so it's hard to tell what's going on.  Guess we'll just have to continue to wait and see!  :unsure:

I was told I would not need to interview. I was invited to visit in March.

I'm interested in the Colorado State thing as well... Would that be an acceptance?
