Chiqui74 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 An update of my earlier freak out about UPenn requiring English proficiency proof from me: I just spoke to the admissions office, my app is complete and no proof is required. Phew!

Heimat Historian Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Anyone heard anything from Illinoios (Urbana-Champaign)? Â I looked at the results page and some folks have already gotten information as early as the 17 of January in previous years. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashiepoo72 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Hopefully it brings everyone good cheer and success. Anyone working on any personal research projects while they wait for decisions to be released? Â I am! Coursework is starting to heat up for me, but I'm gathering and organizing primary source documents from an archive near me. The archive basically specializes in modern U.S. military history so I need to get as much out of it while I'm still in CA as I can! Â What about you kblooms?

Chiqui74 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) No, no interview, although they have changed the status of the English proficiency properly on the application checklist. I haven't heard from any program. I'm trying to resist feeling defeated this early on.  Edits: I can't spell today.

michaelgi Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Hopefully it brings everyone good cheer and success. Anyone working on any personal research projects while they wait for decisions to be released?  I certainly am, working on an in-the-works travelling exhibition here in the UK telling untold stories of unheralded individuals in the Civil Rights Movement, and how the Movement had a direct impact here in the UK. It's pretty amazing and keeping me occupied while I wait.. and wait.... and wait.....  Anybody else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh J. Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Hopefully it brings everyone good cheer and success. Anyone working on any personal research projects while they wait for decisions to be released? I am working on my masters' thesis, which is on federal prosecution of conscientious objectors during World War I. This will be closely related to my dissertation, hopefully...

Magellan1521 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I see there's a UPenn interview on the survey... That makes me anxious/nervous/sad. Â I didn't get a notification for an interview from UPenn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunshineLolipops Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 No interview from UPenn for me either. Fortunately my coursework has me so slammed that I can't just sit and stare at the results page all day long like I want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiqui74 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Another UPenn interview. I wonder if they are actual interviews of which they were notified days ago, interview notifications, or surprise interviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IvanBezdomnii Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 They were phone calls from the department secretary (for lack of a better word) asking if the applicant was available for a Skype interview on x day between y am and z pm. Don't be too disappointed if you haven't gotten one yet, for all I know they were only for one subfield.
