Kleio_77 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 As a Canadian applicant applying to Canadian universities, my first deadlines are in the next few days. Two of my applications have been forwarded for review and reading prior posts has definitely heightened my anxiety! I am already checking my email continuously throughout the day, and like @ashiepoo said earlier, I am also not being as productive at work as I should be! February is going to be difficult. LOL.

NOWAYNOHOW Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Not a historian, but dropping in to say a friend is on the CUNY history adcomm and they are meeting 2/6 (or 2/3, I could be mixing it up). My friend says the SOPs and CVs are all really impressive so far. Good luck everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IvanBezdomnii Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 This is only well informed conjecture, but I'm expecting the first round of UNC-CH decisions to come out today. Good chance they take a lot of people off of the wait list because their $15k stipends often encourage people to take other offers. Excellent school and department though with a top notch faculty and great history grads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magellan1521 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Has anyone received a formal rejection from Berkeley? I know they have already sent out offers of admission. I did not receive either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heimat Historian Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Fingers crossed that this Friday brings notifications from somewhere. I'd imagine that next week the floodgates will start to open (at least judging by previous years results). ashiepoo72 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr. t Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 Has anyone received a formal rejection from Berkeley? I know they have already sent out offers of admission.

IvanBezdomnii Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I'm anticipating next week being a pretty big one in terms of people hearing back, but who knows how the snow messed up the northeast schools? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L13 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) My Cambridge application has been recommended for admission, subject to approval by the Board of Graduate Studies! That's pretty exciting because from what I understand BoGS approval is all but a formality in Cambridge's case and I've basically been admitted already. And after only one week of review! My chances for funding at Cambridge are somewhat small because I missed the general deadline for scholarship applications and am only in the running for one specific source of funding, but that's still heartening news. I can't wait for the official offer of admission, though.

Heimat Historian Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 The frustrating thing is that schools that had earlier admission decisions last year (I'm looking at you Minnesota and Illinois) still haven't sent out anything for this year. It really does vary from year to year it seems. JTE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunshineLolipops Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I agree Heimat Historian. I'm not sure if I'm expecting too much out of UVA'S dates last year and UNC (according to another prediction) or it's just strangely quiet out there so far today. Best of luck everyone!

ashiepoo72 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Keep in mind people who received early acceptances may not be posting on the results board. In the next week or two, it's going to really heat up. I know it's impossible to enjoy the calm before the storm, but I doubt our anxieties will diminish until April 15th arrives and we all know, one way or another, where we are going to be come the Fall term.

Josh J. Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I've gotten three conference acceptances in the last 24 hours, including one international conference in Germany, which I am very excited about! But nothing, oh nothing, from schools... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
