sooo is anyone else still waiting to hear?

 

I'm still waiting :/

 

I accepted an offer already--but I'm still hoping to get off the waitlist at my #1 choice.

 

Hope we hear back soon!

Im still waiting to hear back from USC and UC Irvine for Masters programs. I wonder if I'm on some hidden wait list or something :/

I'm waiting on MFA from NYU. In my email it says that notifications of acceptance of wait lists happen from May to the first week of class. Lol, first week of class??? Is this usual? From reading the forums it seems like people find out right after April 15.

I am still waiting hoping to get off the waitlist at University of Northern Colorado. Now that April 15th has come and gone, the waiting is really driving me crazy. To make matters worse, based on the results page, UNC ADDED two people to the waitlist after 4/15! What does that mean? Have they seriously not gone through all the applications yet?

Well, my waitlist saga has come to an end. Rejection from Michigan, and funding declined by Florida State. Good luck to everyone who is still waiting to hear! I hope you get better news!

I'm still waiting as well. I'm trying not to get too discouraged. I'm hoping good news will come this week!

I'm still waiting! Geez. Talk about my skill level increasing in patience.

Got the decision from the last program I've been waiting for. An unfunded acceptance offer. Very mixed feelings about this one...but at least I have all my results

Haven't officially heard from either university I'm waiting on yet, although I suppose it would be reasonable to assume I'm on their waitlists (unless the policy is to keep rejects on ice until May, which seems a little too cruel to be possible!!!) No word on how the spots are organized or anything like that, even after a phone call and an email.

 

My hands are aching from having my fingers crossed for so long. Come on, universities, gimme a spot!

Got rejected from my other option, to make matters worse they couldn't even send a letter or anything. I spent months working on an application and all I got was "unsuccessful".

 

Anyways, now it comes down to the UofT waitlist! approximately 75 people for what will most likely be 2 spots... I'm not crazy for having hope, am I?

Well, after applying to my top choice in September, I was interviewed in early March, then again in late April, and wait-listed this week. This is truly agonizing, especially after being rejected from everywhere else.

First time posting! I'm here in solidarity with all of the other waitlisted peeps. 

 

I was waitlisted back in March, was subsequently told to expect an update during the last week of April, and of course, heard nothing back. I've emailed twice and left a semi-desperate voice message yesterday afternoon. I am beyond shame right now. If it wasn't Saturday, I'd still keep calling them. At this point, I can't decide if it'd be better to be rejected via email or phone. As you can tell, I'm not feeling too optimistic right now.

Oops!

So I have been wait listed at my top school after the interview with them.

Apparently the only concern they had was my GRE score which was lower than expected.

I have taken the GRE about 2x which insignificant variation in the scores between then... I'm just not a good test taker.

So they're asking me to submit another letter of intent with an update if anything has changed in my life since the beginning of this process. I've gotten another job since then, so I'm hoping this will pan in my favor.

Anyone has any feedback to give?

I'm also going to submit 2 other letters of recommendation so I'm crossing my fingers!!
