allplaideverything Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Somebody reported that they checked the SUNY Buffalo application website and were waitlisted, so I checked mine, and it also says I'm waitlisted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1Q84 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 A colleague of mine just emailed UCI English and received a response that they still haven't completed their review process. So strange that they sent out a spate of acceptances and then radio silence for two weeks. Anyone on the board here receive an acceptance? Was it because you got a fellowship that you heard back so early? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riks90 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Hey guys, Anybody have any word on UPenn? One anonymous admit and then...silence. Is anyone else chalking it up to implied rejection, or do we still have hope? I have a few other offers, but Penn is my top choice... and a girl can dream, right?! cjmullis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurayamino Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I'm wondering if chicago has some sort of silent wait list or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
margeryhemp Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) Do you know this from insider knowledge, by any chance? Yes, I heard that unofficially through the grapevine, but there's always a chance that I'm completely wrong! It would be great if some good news is still to come, since I loved Penn myself I'm wondering if chicago has some sort of silent wait list or something. Ooh, interesting! Has anyone seen anything about waitlist notifications? Speak of the devil; just got an email that I've been recommended for the MAPH, but I'll remove myself from the running. Also, has anyone heard from UToronto? Edited February 25, 2015 by margeryhemp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speak of the devil; just got an email that I've been recommended for the MAPH, but I'll remove myself from the running. I don't know why, but I'm actually ever-so-slightly miffed that I didn't get that recommendation! I never would have taken it, but the notice that was sent was very terse. Probably more terse than it ought to be, in my opinion. Oh well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Q84 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) Argh what's the deal with the U Toronto radio silence. Historically, they've notified within these past two days. They're the only school I applied to that haven't sent out anything yet. Edit: oop, didn't see this edit. Also, has anyone heard from UToronto? It better be coming tomorrow!

The record for the past two years say Feb. 27-28 for acceptances, so they haven't broken with history just yet, and last year those were Thursday/Friday of this week in Feb. Still hope! Still hope!

TeaOverCoffee Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 So I'm on OSU's wait list. How many people do we think actually get in from the wait list, though? Are wait lists just false hope for most people? I just ate an entire box of skinny cow caramel chocolate; I'm ready for frank answers. Also, these sporadic Purdue acceptances are possibly driving me crazy. Just send them all out at once, Purdue. All. At. Once. Nobody likes the guessing game. softcastlemccormick and empress-marmot 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepriorwalter Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Other people can probably speak more to this than I can but from past years, it seems like OSU's wait list is based on area groups? They can let in a certain number in each group and then they wait list a small number of candidates for each as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katla Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I have no particular place to post this but I had to share somehow.... I went to a "Queer and Now" late night and the V&A, I totally hadn't checked what events were on so imagine my excitement when it turned out there was a talk with Jack Halberstam. Why did I not apply to USC? Only an hour and my head was buzzing! 1Q84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
