kant_get_in Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 The GradCafe acceptance thread. "I hope we hear from X university today." Later that day…... "I really wish we hadn't heard from X university today." shelbyelisha and Edit_Undo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ungerdrag Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Got a voice message from NYU... saying that I forgot to upload my transcript. Despite the heart attack, it's nice to know that I'm still in the race, and that they'll be meeting soon. kant_get_in and philosophe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philosophe Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 CONGRATS! I have some friends up there, and they love it. Thanks! I remember someone else on the thread saying they had attended, and that it was grand. If anyone who's attended SASP is on the threads, please message me. I'd love to hear about your experience!

TheVineyard Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Lol. Accepted into Harvard, might not go because the letter was rude. Man I want that problem. It was obviously a joke/troll. The guy says he is 'on the fence' when he was supposedly rejected to every other school but accepted to Harvard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hexenkid Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Anyone here still waiting to hear back from Queen's University? I see some acceptances have gone out, but a lull since then. Do you know how their process works? I have a few deadlines coming up from other places but I would REALLY like to hear back from Queen's. thanks!

Occam's Razorburn Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Heads' up, guys! I just got a call from Calvin Normore--UCLA is still admitting its initial batch. Apparently they just didn't call everyone at the same time. I'm hoping this is awesome news for some other people besides myself. Good luck to all.

But hey, you never know--it could just mean that you'll be getting called in a few minutes. In which case, advance warning might help you sound like less of an idiot than I did.

dgswaim Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Do you think a flattering love letter to Rice might help my chances? Before discovering philosophy, I aspired to be a poet. Maybe I can woo them into an acceptance. It worked on my wife... Maybe something like: Roses are red Violets are blue Funding is awesome And so is funding Rice's response was something like the following: While the admissions committee disagrees as to the constitutive properties of roses and violets, we can confirm that funding is, indeed, awesome. Your application, however, was not, and so you won't receive any from us. Ok... maybe it wasn't quite that harsh... philosopheme 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also claiming a UChicaog rejection (at least I finally heard something...) and a Stanford rejection. Stanford and Princeton are my absolute dream schools. It was such a nice rejection, but I'll be feeling this one for quite some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
