screencheck Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Has anybody heard anything? I'm not expecting an acceptance but I'd like to know either way.
sarab Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 daykid has or had an interview today.I got an email saying they're considering my application very seriously, but that's all.
screencheck Posted February 4, 2014 Author Posted February 4, 2014 Ok, now I can stop wondering. Which school should I obsess over now?
daykid Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 I just had my interview. I honestly don't know how it went as it was quite short (20 minutes ish) but we had a lot of common interests with my POI, so....we'll see!
Chapuller Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 daykid has or had an interview today.I got an email saying they're considering my application very seriously, but that's all. Congrads! I applied Umich sociology not anthropo, but I wonder your scores?

eriatarka Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 I applied for Anthro & History, who knows when that news will come in... congrats to the interviewees
daykid Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Congrads! I applied Umich sociology not anthropo, but I wonder your scores? My scores? I think they are pretty average. I took the GREs back in 2009. They were a 710 verbal and a 680 Quantitative. 4.5 Writing. I don't know what that means for todays GREs
skylarking Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Nothing really from them on my end except that they were missing a couple things. I'm not expecting admission since it's kind of a long shot but also one of the only unis with a Center for my area
screencheck Posted February 4, 2014 Author Posted February 4, 2014 is it safe to assume that if you didn't get an interview, you wont be offered admission?
daykid Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 All I was told was that my POI and another professor were interviewing finalists. It seems like they were doing us back to back. I don't know if other POIs were handling it differently.
screencheck Posted February 4, 2014 Author Posted February 4, 2014 yea, sounds about right. Well, it was a long shot in the first place. I'm not too disappointed.

Mirabilis Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 It seems like only the linguistic anth people were contacted then? Im still holding out hope..I think if I can score outside funding, it might secure me a spot.

Im still holding out hope..I think if I can score outside funding, it might secure me a spot. interesting. maybe we have a shot after all. how do plan on getting external funding? I applied for the NSFGRFP, but seeing as how I have not heard back it seems as if I did not get it haha.
eriatarka Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 If anyone else is applying to Anthro/History - according to the History forum, Michigan is making a shortlist and we could be hearing back in a week or two.
daykid Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 My feeling is that they will announce by the end of the week. Based on last years posts and my impatient desire to knoooow eriatarka and NOWAYNOHOW 2
fishjg Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Any sociocultural applicants hear anything? I'm dying waiting!!
daykid Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Every day I think: "today has to be the day for Michigan" and every day nothing! You're killing me Smalls!!!
jogatoronto Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 Anthro-History is making final decisions today. Probably 6 offers. No idea when students will be notified of the decision. Good luck
eriatarka Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 Anthro-History is making final decisions today. Probably 6 offers. No idea when students will be notified of the decision. Good luck Thank you for the info Here's to hoping!
eriatarka Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 C'mon anthro & history! Am I the only one?
gracedavis91 Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 anthro accepted 6 students for Michigan, all of them have already been notified as of last week
fishjg Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Well there goes my hope for Michigan! Thanks for the update
sarab Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 I don't think it was 6 total. Apparently 5 linguistic anthroplogy people were accepted, so I'm sure more than 6 for the entire discipline.
