Weltgeist Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 4 BU acceptances with the posters saying they will most likely decline; for the love of casserole could some one claim one of these? I'll claim one - which I just the other day declined. I hope that works out for you! Wait For It... 1
nietzschemarket Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Can anyone confirm? No email here yet EDIT: Nevermind. Does this mean that you've gotten an e-mail?
Establishment Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Has anyone heard from Tulane? Tulane? More like... Ustedlane... philstudent1991 1
dgswaim Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 (edited) Tulane? More like... Ustedlane... I bet this would be really funny if I knew what you were talking about... Edit: I just got it. Language joke. Been a while since Spanish class. Edited March 10, 2014 by dgswaim
philosophe Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Has anyone heard from Tulane? I applied and haven't heard either. Last year they made offers on 3/6.
AquinasDuo Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 It is good news to see so many BU spots planned for decline. They are one of two schools who have yet to get back to me, and I would be chuffed by an offer even coming off a waitlist.
MattDest Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 I know someone who got a Purdue acceptance, so I'm pretty sure they are legitimate.
philadam Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Anyone claim the 2nd Purdue accept? I can claim it. This is my first good news so far. My AOI's are philosophy of religion and early 20th century philosophy. Also, I've been lurking here all season, so I feel as though I know many of you pretty well, though you guys are just now meeting me. I also go to school with MattDest.

Hope the funding package comes through.
dgswaim Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Just out of curiosity, philadam, did your status change on the application page?
philadam Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 (edited) Congrats! Hope the funding package comes through. Thank you! Hopefully you hear back as well. Re:status change. No, the page looks the same as it did this morning. Edited March 10, 2014 by philadam
shelbyelisha Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Strange that only one person here heard from UMass today... philosophe 1
Hypatience Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 (edited) My offer came with a Puryear Fellowship, I'm not sure if that's standard or not. But if it's not then maybe other offers with other kinds of funding will go out later? Edit: this is reply to the above about UMass Edited March 10, 2014 by Hypatience
lesage13 Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Does this mean that you've gotten an e-mail? No, just saw Hypatience's post above mine after I finished writing mine. That she got a named fellowship explains why she's been to only one around here to hear from UMass so far. Also, congrats, Hypatience.

Not sure if they are transferable or not.

Now I'm Hympatient for UMass news... Edited March 10, 2014 by nietzschemarket humean_skeptic and shelbyelisha 2
dgswaim Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 I can feel Purdue slowly slipping away as the minutes and hours pass. Don't go, Purdue... don't go.
Pheminism Posted March 11, 2014 Posted March 11, 2014 (edited) Thanks, Vineyard! I'm probably going to go to NYU, given how strong it is in all my AOIs, but I'll visit some other places just to be sure. Believe me: I didn't expect to get in everywhere. I applied to some safety schools, but withdrew once I started hearing back from top tens. (The safety schools aren't in my signature anymore.) What are your areas of interest ? Edited March 11, 2014 by Pheminism
perpetuavix Posted March 11, 2014 Posted March 11, 2014 Just got accepted to CUNY off the waitlist, but I'm still waitlisted for funding, so I don't feel like my position in life has substantially improved. Hypatience 1
ungerdrag Posted March 11, 2014 Posted March 11, 2014 What are your areas of interest ? They're broad: metaphysics, ethics, philosophy of mind, and philosophy of action. Whenever possible, I work on all of these at the same time. (Example: metaphysics of pain/pleasure.) I'm also getting really into formal semantics, which is unbelievably fun.
MattDest Posted March 11, 2014 Posted March 11, 2014 Just got accepted to CUNY off the waitlist, but I'm still waitlisted for funding, so I don't feel like my position in life has substantially improved. Congrats! I'm really interested in what happened to Logos... I hope s/he got in somewhere. philosophe and ta_pros_to_telos 2
