ADMIT TERM

[laurrun]

So my school has updated online and it reads "decision made" and the second line reads "admit term: Fall 2014."

 

Does this mean I was admitted or no?

[GeoDUDE!]

email them

Just email the department secretary? I never received much contact info.

Sounds like you have been admitted, congrats! You could email the department secretary for clarification, don't worry about not having much prior contact with them. I imagine they should be contacting you with more information soon, if you have indeed been admitted. I'd make sure for my own peace of mind. A quick "hey my app now says this, what does it mean?" (appropriately worded, of course) should do it.

Great, thank you!

Still haven't heard anything. Emailed first thing this morning. I am beginning to worry that "admit term" just means the term I applied for.

I saw your post in the History Fall 2014 Applicants thread and I'm in the exact same situation with Tennessee. I was thinking about emailing them too, but I wanted to check if you had heard anything back yet. Best of luck!

I emailed for a response and it was a no.

Best of luck to you, though!

Thanks for the update.

 They post their letters at the very top of the status webpage.  I was in the same boat and then last night a link to the official response from the grad admissions office was posted.  Mine was an acceptance, but still no word from the department.

 

Best of luck to everyone
