wakeupright Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Rejected off the wait list at Oregon. Sad day. How did you find out? Personalized email? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pearclick Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Form email from Scott Pratt. I think it was the same email they sent for the first-round rejections because it never acknowledged that I had been on a waitlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One day you'll make it out of NOVA, I promise. pearclick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pearclick Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Sorry to hear that. One day you'll make it out of NOVA, I promise. I'm a little south of NOVA, thankfully. These rejections would be a lot more depressing if I were getting them in Fairfax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakeupright Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I used to live in DC so I'm generally hostile to NOVA. But I am not white, so SOVA is generally hostile to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pearclick Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I don't go to school there, but I grew up in Virginia Beach, which is a nice blend of NOVA and SOVA attitudes. Traffic is better, and we're not as racist as the western half of the state! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pearclick Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Good news! Scott Pratt just emailed me. The form rejection was an error, and I'm still on the waitlist. Hypatience, wandajune, philstudent1991 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakeupright Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Good news! Scott Pratt just emailed me. The form rejection was an error, and I'm still on the waitlist. Awesome. And just like Virginia Beach is the fence between two worlds (SOVA and NOVA) on which you sit, so too is the wait-list on which you find yourself. It's worthy to remember that sitting on the fence all day will make your arse hurt. philstudent1991 and pearclick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattDest Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 What if you get an offer from Rutgers? I'd be very shocked and honored, but I'd turn it down. Too many good reasons to go to Arizona.

Wait For It... Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) Waitlisted at UCR - will be turning it down shortly. Good luck to others on it! No word yet from UCR to me. I guess that means I'm out, even though the website still says my application is "being processed." Has anyone else removed themselves from the wait-list? MattDest: does your account still say "being processed?" Congratulations on Arizona, by the way! I bet it feels nice to know where you're going already! Edited March 4, 2014 by Wait For It...

ta_pros_to_telos Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Whoops, sorry, read quickly, and then quoted the wrong post. Congrats to Monadology's girlfriend as well as to you, Matt. Are we expecting a Stanford wait list at some point? I highly doubt I would make it, but I'm curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasperlenspieler Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Also claiming a UCR wait list. Anyone know more details? I emailed Mark Wrathall back. He said that its an unranked wait list, and they try to keep things balanced out in term of interests, so if a spot opens up for someone with your interests, then you get admitted. So what are the AOI's of the people on the wait-list or who have been accepted? I'm kind of broad with German philosophy, ethics, phil religion, and aesthetics.

Monadology Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I've been accepted at UCR, my AoIs are Agency, 19th & 20th Century Continental and phil of language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcademicX Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I just took myself off the DePaul waitlist. I will be also declining Fordham's offer soon. Hope this helps those that are in the waitlist(s). While it was easy to decline a spot in a waitlist, I find it a lot harder to write to Fordham and tell them I will decline their offer of admission. Any advise on how to decline an offer in a nice way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
