Doorkeeper Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 More Yales on the board. Can anyone claim one? Very unclear about whether these are real or not.
ZajoncSays Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 I claim a Penn acceptance! And with that I'm no longer waiting on any schools: in at 5 and wait listed at 2. Whoa. slacktivist 1
AuldReekie Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Rejected from Indiana. Applying to 14 schools has lead to a lot of rejections.. but it's amazing how just one acceptance takes the sting out of all the other rejections Pretty much just waiting on Cornell and UPenn. If I hear nothing from those two then I'll be off to Texas! Best use the next few months to work on my R skills... mseph 1

Evgeny55 Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Yale offers should be out today or tomorrow. I really want to get in: I think research fit is good. I did not receive anything from UCLA, though, perhaps I still have some chances at UCLA.

Evgeny55 Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 I'm in the same boat. I just hope they won't wait until April 15th to release a decision
Doorkeeper Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) Yes, they're real. Thank you for the confirmation. Have any Theory people heard from Yale? I figure that I have hope until the Theory member of the Committee sends out emails. I wish it was socially acceptable to drink whisky in class at 12pm.

bluenebraska Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Claiming a Penn acceptance and still waiting on Yale. 300+ applicants and 10 acceptances. Great feeling after the Princeton rejection.
slacktivist Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Penn grad coordinator said, "We are currently finalizing admissions decisions. All letters will be sent out by the end of the next week." Probably means I'm cooked. Pity.
theoristo Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 I've been accepted to Brown! University email to check ApplyWeb, where a letter was posted with some funding information (but not complete)....so far no news from the department.
gr22 Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Those who have received acceptances to Yale: did you all get personalized emails/phone calls? I just got an email with information about visit days and a form letter of acceptance addressed to "Prospective PhD student." The email didn't contain any funding information, and I'm eager to share the news with my advisor, though with recent mishaps of accidental admissions emails, I'm plagued by the fear that this email was sent in error (which isn't helped by the fact that it's a form letter without my name in there anywhere).

Doorkeeper Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Welp. Looks like it's time to abandon all hope if the generic emails have been sent out.
slacktivist Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Checked my Georgetown Apply Yourself portal and it said I was missing a transcript for a one-semester program. Hope it doesn't mean my application wasn't looked at...
testingtesting Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Doorkeeper you just need to click your heels three times and believe.
Doorkeeper Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) Doorkeeper you just need to click your heels three times and believe. I know, man. Shit is definitely getting to me. haha. I only applied to 6 schools so each one seems momentous. I remember waiting for college acceptance way back when and basically all the schools announced on the same day. That was a piece of cake compared to this slow trickle of information to decide your fate. Edited February 19, 2015 by Doorkeeper
HopefulNeurotic Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 I got the mass acceptance email from Yale, too. Don't second guess it, we're in!! gr22 and Brandon263 2

Call from a POI in the morning, email from another POI an hour later, then what sounds like the same generic email in the afternoon.
Mwezi Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 POI on my Yale email indicated that she was asked to notify a few admits. The official letter came an hour or 2 later.
Evgeny55 Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 So, I think those who did not receive anything from Yale can presume rejection? I saw someone posted rejection by e-mail, but I did not receive anything...
kosmo Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 For those who got e-mail rejections from Yale, was it solicited? I haven't received anything either but I'll just have to assume it's a reject, if generic emails are being sent out...
SwitchInTime Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 For those who got e-mail rejections from Yale, was it solicited? I haven't received anything either but I'll just have to assume it's a reject, if generic emails are being sent out... I emailed the DGS and the director nicely told me I was rejected. Didn't make the pain any less real, but at least she was nice about it.
