ashiepoo72 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 congrats on MSU anthrohis! I'd upvote you, but it seems like I was overzealous with my votes earlier! anthrohis7092 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SunshineLolipops Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I'm interested in 19th century U.S. Military history and counterinsurgency during the Civil War, but my MLitt dissertation will be on the formation of British Bomb Disposal in WWII.

ashiepoo72 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Heimat -- don't worry! You're going to rock that interview!  Magellan -- I'm sorry to hear that. There's still a ton of schools that haven't notified, I'm sure you'll get into a great program!  anthrohis -- thanks for doing me a solid   and yeah, I was dreading the first notification, but having positive news certainly lifted a weight off!  I'm over here keeping my fingers crossed for everyone and sending y'all good vibes!!

paulxobear Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I haven't received any news, good or bad, from any school. I am really anxious to see that some schools that I have applied have sent out interview emails! How sad I've got none! Does it mean I am out of the game if I haven't received any interview emails by now? Can anyone knows about the interview process illuminate me a bit? Is it just with the POI or also with other faculty such as DGS etc.? Is it in person or by phone/Skype? Wish you all get admitted to your dream school!

ashiepoo72 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Most programs don't have official interviews. Usually it's a POI wanting to get in touch informally. Others can probably inform more about programs that tend toward more formal interviews. Only one of the schools I applied to does, and even then it's not consistent. Don't fret just yet! I know it's awful seeing the interviews pop up on the results board when your inbox stays empty, but you'll be hearing back soon enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have applied to Yale and Princeton (and others), both seem to have formal interviews in the past. Best wishes to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magellan1521 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Congrats to all the new admits! Â Quick question: When did Berkeley send out its decisions? Â I have not received an admission or rejection email/snail mail. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashiepoo72 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 The post on the results board was a POI email, so I'm not surprised you haven't received any information yet. Some POIs will send out emails ahead of the official notification, others won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr. t Posted January 24, 2015 Author Share Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) Based on previous trends, I would expect offers from Berkeley in the coming week, and rejections the week after, with a second wave of acceptances in the second or third week of Feb. Â From the data, I infer that the send out acceptances to those with university fellowships, then rejections, then acceptances to those who received departmental funding.

levoyous Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 OH I forgot about Boston College. I applied there as well. I keep looking at the results page and it seems like everyone is hearing back except for us! Â What is your field? I looked back at my email and my acceptance email from last year came on 2/11.

ashiepoo72 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I just tried to explain to my brother why I'm so ecstatic over one of my classes. When I told him it's because the professor structured the reading assignments as though the syllabus was a work of art (the flow of the reading is just gorgeously done...ugh, I'm such a nerd), he looked at me like I grew another head. I should be used to the incredulous looks by now haha Heimat Historian, SunshineLolipops and Josh J. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunshineLolipops Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) It looks like UVA pretty consistently notifies people on 30/31 January over the past couple years... Why did I have to start obsessing over this site this week while I've got two presentations and two essays due?
