kant_get_in Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 (edited) Have you had any contact from South Carolina or tried to solicit any information? I sent an email yesterday morning to the DOGS. I'll let you know as soon as I hear anything back. Would you consider it over your other choices? Edited March 20, 2014 by kant_get_in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgswaim Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Well, I'd certainly wait to hear from Purdue before making a final decision, but I might take it over my MA offers if given a sufficiently generous financial aid package or something like that. kant_get_in 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wait For It... Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Can the person who posted a rejection from BU give any more info? I've emailed the department secretary, who said she forwarded my email to Walter Hopp, yet I haven't heard anything for a while now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edit_Undo Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I have just got a rejection from BU (solicited). I've sent an email to Hopp and received an email with pdf attachment. You need your BU ID to access it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait For It... Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I've emailed the department secretary twice, and in both instances she replied that she had forwarded the message to Dr Hopp. But it's been a week or so and I have yet to hear anything. I did email Dr Hopp today. I suppose silence is better right now since they are sending out rejections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArtsyFartsyCoffee Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Does anybody know if the University of Michigan rejections are out yet? They said they would let me know by March 15th, but so far I haven't heard anything. I know for the MSW program they have already gone through the first round of rejections, acceptions, and wait listing. I think the final choice will besome time during the Summer.

TheVineyard Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I don't really know where to put this, but CUNY just sent me an email inviting me to their M.A. program in Liberal Studies. Somewhat personalized email, surprisingly. Very strange, and I have no interest in it (in at great PhDs), but I'm wondering if they are just sending this out to all of their rejected applicants. philosophe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not sent to all rejected applicants. That's an interesting approach on their part, do you focus on interdisciplinary work? Congrats on the PhD acceptances!

objectivityofcontradiction Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 One thing I'll never understand about this process is how rejections trickle in. UCR sent out acceptances and wait-lists weeks ago now, clearly those of us who did not hear are rejected. How hard is it to click a computer screen and send out the rejection emails as a single group? What is with this, okay, let's reject A-G today, H-S tomorrow, and the rest the day after?

Monadology Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 The comment thread on this post might give some insight. Sounds like it's at least partially wait-lists and partially bureaucracy (departments have to notify some other entity and that entity is responsible for sending out rejections, presumably processing has to happen to make sure everything is 'official' before it's sent out). There might be other reasons as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, this is really odd. I've heard of some programs keeping internal wait-lists but otherwise I do think it's a little silly that programs wait so long to release rejections.

TheVineyard Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 The problem with not sending rejections out all at once is that typically, not getting rejected is good news. Two of my waitlists/acceptances came a couple days after all rejections had been sent out, so my optimism was rewarded. In the case of Riverside, it's just annoying. But again...isn't there some rule that they are breaking by waiting until freaking April to even let us know if we are accepted/wled/rejected?

Wait For It... Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 My UCR post is the latest. It was solicited; I emailed yesterday and was told I would hear something "sometime soon." I heard today and the "something" was a rejection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
