sarab Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 So as part of this waiting obsession, I had a dream last night that one of my POI called me and interviewed me in Spanish, and then I got a letter saying to ignore the previous rejection letter because I had been accepted.
FaultyPowers Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 So as part of this waiting obsession, I had a dream last night that one of my POI called me and interviewed me in Spanish, and then I got a letter saying to ignore the previous rejection letter because I had been accepted. I dreamed that I woke up, checked the results page on my phone and saw that people were posting from my top choice school. So then I checked my email and didn't have anything! But the anxiety from that made me ACTUALLY wake up, at which point I grabbed at my phone and tried to check the results page but I was too tired and couldn't focus my eyes or see what I was entering in on my touchscreen! The whole saga took about a half hour and revealed absolutely nothing. My life is ridiculous! daykid 1

fishjg Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 so much for my theory about hearing from michigan today... wah wah It would have been nice to pair today's Princeton rejection with word from Michigan!!! #overit #notreally
sarab Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 I used to look forward for the weekend, but not anymore because I'll just be impatiently waiting for Monday. Canis 1
eriatarka Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 I used to look forward for the weekend, but not anymore because I'll just be impatiently waiting for Monday. I know right? I've never in my life been this excited for Mondays. Canis 1
Forsaken in LA Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) I'm at my field site right now and I'm supposed to be paying attention. Obviously I'm not. I'm going nuts. Edited February 8, 2014 by Forsaken in LA
Shmoo Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Hi there! I have a question for people who are getting rejected via email: are you emailing the department to inquire about your status, or are they sending out emails unprompted? Im asking because Im seeing that some people are getting accepted/rejected to the programs to which I applied, but I havent heard anything positive or negative from them, so I dont know whether I should still be hopeful or not. Thanks!
colorless Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Hi there!

Im asking because Im seeing that some people are getting accepted/rejected to the programs to which I applied, but I havent heard anything positive or negative from them, so I dont know whether I should still be hopeful or not. Thanks! Often, the departments send out positive results earlier than negatve ones. But sometimes they don't do ti at the same time. Sometimes professors send personal emails to let you know before the official letters are sent out. Maybe these people learned directly from their professors. I think you can wait a bit more, maybe you are being wait listed.
colorless Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Who was the one who had an interview with POI at Harvard? If you are reading this can you give more info? Pls.
MPollywog Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Colorless - I haven't heard anything new from the POI I've been in contact with since my interview. I was told that the professors (I'm not sure if Harvard has an official admissions committee) were meeting around the end of January and that I should probably find out in mid-February. The POI I spoke with didn't know the exact admissions schedule and was just estimating when things would be sent out, so it may take longer. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. I'll let you know if I hear anything.
sarab Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 A short video to lift spirits as we head towards the end of yet another week of waiting: http://vimeo.com/85040589 This is actually great and applicable to many areas of my life. Thank you!
ENMC Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 I think I’ve read the documents I submitted to the schools about five hundred times, trying to find every possible mistake, dwelling on every thing I should or should not have said and therefore submitting myself to all kinds of self-deprication. I can’t wait for it to be over... hopefully with an acceptance. It only takes ONE! HrdyWordy 1
NOWAYNOHOW Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 (edited) Thoughts on CUNY's incoming cultural cohort size? I am pretty much hinging my whole season on them. Any news out of Rutgers? Can anyone confirm/deny rumors of a potentially tiny (1-2) CITE cohort this year? I've heard this from multiple sources. Edited February 9, 2014 by NOWAYNOHOW

If anyone has info on CUNY's incoming linguistic cohort size, I'm also interested. I heard from a grad student there that they'll only be taking one or two due to full 5 year funding, but I don't know.
letmein14 Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Any word on Yale? I know that they are doing interviews but from my understanding, this is more for the socio-cultural applicants and not archaeology. Does anyone know anything about Yale archaeo?
Forsaken in LA Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Well, good luck this week everyone! HrdyWordy 1
