dillwithit Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Anyone claiming the UC San Diego bioarch acceptance??? Now I'm getting anxious. Three schools in the past few days have been beginning to send out more decisions...NYU, UCLA, and now UCSD That was me!
AnthroFlux Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Did anyone apply to The New School for Social Research PhD???
smg Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Did anyone apply to The New School for Social Research PhD??? Nope. I heard their funding is absolutely garbage though. DanJackson 1
humankoko Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Anyone that heard from UCLA in the bio anth subfield?? Heard they were reviewing applications around the 30th, nothing sense then. This time last year was when they sent out email acceptances.
humankoko Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Did anyone apply to The New School for Social Research PhD??? Their funding is indeed in shambles. Who did you apply to work with? Langlitz is great. Hirschfeld seems okay.
Dirtstainedgirl36 Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 That was me! Dillwithit, do you know if their decisions will be continuing to be released over the course of the next week or so? What did their email say, if you don't mind me asking?
AnthroFlux Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Their funding is indeed in shambles. Who did you apply to work with? Langlitz is great. Hirschfeld seems okay. I haven't applied, but their program looks super ace and the faculty really good so if I have no luck this round I'll definitely apply...
NOWAYNOHOW Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 I haven't applied, but their program looks super ace and the faculty really good so if I have no luck this round I'll definitely apply... Beware, one must first earn an MA at NSSR and only after the fact reapply for the PhD. It's a pretty brilliant way to just get students to pay for the MA. DanJackson 1

It's a pretty brilliant way to just get students to pay for the MA. Yeah, I just noted this, but other threads on grad cafe seem to imply that there's decent tuition remission available for master's students (more so than other terminal master's programs). Well, the program looks hot so definitely worth some thought...
Meglet Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Anyone want to claim CUNY result? Was it a mass email or individual? Another one of my schools, with no email for me. I'm dying here! I feel like my possibilities are dwindling. I wonder if there are professors who come here to read these threads and laugh at us?
FaultyPowers Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Another one of my schools, with no email for me. I'm dying here! I feel like my possibilities are dwindling. I wonder if there are professors who come here to read these threads and laugh at us? I was just thinking about you Meglet! It's weird, isn't it? You can't really help but to take it personally!

dillwithit Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Dillwithit, do you know if their decisions will be continuing to be released over the course of the next week or so? What did their email say, if you don't mind me asking? So the email was your typical acceptance email, no info on other applications. "Congratulations! I am pleased to inform you that you have been admitted as a graduate student for Fall 2015 to the Ph.D. program in Anthropology majoring in Anthropology at the University of California, San Diego. As a leading institution for graduate studies, UC San Diego strives to attract and retain the best and the brightest graduate students from across the country and around the world. You have been selected from an elite group of applicants and it is our sincere hope that you will elect to join our campus community." I know they reviewed applications on 2/2 and decided who to admit then. I am not sure if they are still sending out emails. My status online has changed if that helps. My POI gave me a skype interview to tell me informally about my admittance and funding last week.
trogdorburninator Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Got my first IN in today.... the joint program in Social Work & Anthropology at U. Michigan! yeeeehaw. phone call from the SW dgs. I kept trying to sit down to talk with her and then leaping up, because I got too excited! here's hoping for more good new, for all y'all! museum_geek, aaannnthroling and smg 3
trogdorburninator Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 I forgot the most important part....

annwyn Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 Tiny rant: JUST SEND OUT NOTIFICATIONS!! SERIOUSLY, I KNOW YOU KNOW, JUST CALL! Okay, I'm done. I just keep looking at my list of silent schools and I may be going a little crazy. Huge congrats everybody! So happy for everyone! ArchaeoGeek 1
feministanthro Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 I also received news I am on the CUNY shortlist. They requested a Skype chat with a adcom member and asked about how important funding was to me. Good luck to all those still waiting to hear!
humankoko Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 Wanted to tell you fellow UCLA hopefuls: I called the dept. and talked to the secretary--she told me that notifications are NOT all sent out yet. Anyone care to claim UCLA notifications so far and subfield?
finefebruary Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) Anyone visiting CUNY for its colloquium series? Let me know if there's any! Edited February 14, 2015 by finefebruary
dillwithit Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) Just got a recruitment weekend invite email for UCSD that said they are still sending out invites!! Should be in the next couple of weeks. Edited February 14, 2015 by dillwithit sarab 1

PurpleZephyr Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 Hello all! I have not yet posted to the results page, but I have been accepted to UNC Chapel Hill (medical anthropology). I'm trying to determine who is interested in actually attending Chapel Hill because I'm interested on your thoughts on the school/program (and possibly your living/roommate situation). Please reply or PM me. Thanks.
PurpleZephyr Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 I had a phone interview with someone in the Anthropology department from the University of Virginia, but I haven't heard anything in 3 weeks (the interview was on January 24). I got some positive feedback and much enthusiasm from the professor, but radio silence since then. Has anyone heard anything from UVA? When are Stanford, Northwestern, UC Berkeley and WashU sending out anything?
smg Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 WUSTL is finishing up campus visitations/interviews right now. If you haven't heard from them about an interview PZ your probably SOL.
PurpleZephyr Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 I'm thinking that's an "L" for Washu as well. I'm still hoping for some good news from somewhere next week. I got an email from Stanford this past week saying that the department is really busy and it was sorry for responding so late to my email (I needed to change my phone number). That tells me that there is movement at Stanford and maybe we may hear something soon.
