Canis Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 My thoughts on Toronto are: There's been one US American admission already, so that's probably the end. The word I got from the department was there wouldn't be space for more than maybe 1 or 2 international students - they have a really hard time getting funding for intl students. So it's my first choice, but unless I'm wait-listed, I'm considering it my first rejection for now. I could be wrong, but that's my thought as of right now. Which means, I can start preparing my application for next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canis, application for next year? Already? I can't even begin to list the number of things I've had to apply for twice to get into! It's like a rule for me at this point - if it doesn't work the first time, try again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canis Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 For those who applied to Toronto - what does your application status say on the web site? I'm wondering - it you were admitted has it been updated? If you weren't yet given a decision, does it still say "under review" as mine does?

Quirky Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 (edited) Congrats to those that got in. I guess I'm in the same boat as Canis... How did everyone find out about UoT? Email? Edited February 7, 2014 by Quirky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

widefellow Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 For those who have applied to Irvine but haven't heard anything yet - I have emailed the department to ask about my status and got a reply saying they only sent out the "first round" acceptances, and still working on the rest of the applications, but they "have no time table yet for second around admissions." So don't give up hopes. And it will be awesome if those who are admitted could share some inside infos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cotterw Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Has anyone heard much of anything from the Northwestern program yet? I saw a couple of interviews pop up on the results page but just curious if anyone can offer more info... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishjg Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Congratulations on the admission fishjg! Thanks so much, Canis! Still waiting on Northwestern, Berkeley, Princeton, etc. Got into Davis, though! I hate the waiting game!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do know that the admit students weekend is March 7th/8th (although I won't be able to make that day since I have a show on the 8th). So I'm guessing they'll have to let any second rounds know before then? Best of luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOWAYNOHOW Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Got an official rejection from Princeton. Was expecting it, but first news of the season being so poor doesn't bode well. TGIF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skylarking Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Got an official rejection from Princeton. Was expecting it, but first news of the season being so poor doesn't bode well. TGIF? That's a pretty heinous way to start the day I'm sorry, dude. Same goes for everyone else who got rejected from Princeton this morning. Hopefully better news is on the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
