1Q84 Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 All places to which I didn't apply! Seriously congrats to the acceptees! Seriously. How about a place we did apply!? (I am joking of course). Sending so much love to everyone already accepted. Hopefully we all will be joining you soon! iwontbelyeveit 1
queennight Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Seriously. How about a place we did apply!? (I am joking of course). I've somehow reached my upvotes for today without using any but JUST SO YOU KNOW +1
Dr. Old Bill Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 I've somehow reached my upvotes for today without using any but JUST SO YOU KNOW +1 Yeah, I think upvotes might be...down. (*snicker*) Seriously though, I should have a few, but when I tried to use one earlier...no luck. Lycidas and lyonessrampant 2
queennight Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 I've been on GradCafe for the better part of a year, and still have absolutely no idea how the upvote system operates. smg, Mattie Roh and rococo_realism 3
unræd Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) It looks like someone got accepted there for Communications and Media too, so maybe their non-STEM decisions are just coming a bit early? Or maybe that applicant was super-duper special... at any rate, we'll see soon if it's a trend or an anomaly! While of course I'd like to think I'm super-duper special, it's probably not the case. I am, however, that Tuesday Urbana English admit! Ah! So excited! I'd been avoiding the fora since December to try to maintain a bit of calmness and detachment--which, surprisingly, works; I've gone whole days without thinking about my applications or graduate school, which I wouldn't have thought possible. But I sure as hell didn't think I'd hear from a program this soon! Edited to clear up timeframe. Edited January 15, 2015 by unræd Lycidas, 1Q84, toasterazzi and 6 others 9

jhefflol Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Also, does anyone want to claim that rhetoric admit to Michigan state? Congrats!

I am, however, that Tuesday Urbana English admit! Ah! So excited! OMG OF COURSE you are super-duper special!!! Congratulations!! I'm so glad you can relax now and wait for the other decisions to come in.
unræd Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I am out of up votes, hreaðemus, but I owe you one! hreaðemus 1
sillyrabbit Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Anyone want to claim the University of Maryland (English PhD) acceptance?
zanmato4794 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Anyone want to claim the University of Maryland (English PhD) acceptance? My guess is it's hypervodka.
jhefflol Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I like how we are calling each other out lol EXPLAIN YOURSELVES!
HesseBunuel90 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I'm just confused as to why they seem to be coming so early. Congrats to all who have been accepted so far!
hreaðemus Posted January 16, 2015 Author Posted January 16, 2015 I'm just confused as to why they seem to be coming so early. Congrats to all who have been accepted so far! I just wish ALL the universities would follow their lead and tell us already so we can get on with our lives! It's like waiting for final grades x100,000. Dr. Old Bill 1
queennight Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I like how we are calling each other out lol EXPLAIN YOURSELVES! Bahahah SO TRUE. +1 Also if this is hypervodka, I'm insanely excited for her. ON ANOTHER NOTE YOU DUMMIES POST HERE FIRST DAMMIT Katla 1
hypervodka Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 YOU DUMMIES POST HERE FIRST DAMMIT YES, please do... if only so that you actually get the chance to announce it yourself . The acceptance WAS me, actually. They were having trouble finding my GRE scores, so I just assumed this was a follow-up email. Apparently not. I guess the time really is upon us... hreaðemus, unræd, lyonessrampant and 2 others 5

Also as a side note, your icon has been appearing as the "next" page button on my mobile version of GC for some reason. It makes me laugh every time. It's like, "back," "reply," or "hypervodka."

CONGRATS!!!!! that's absolutely incredible!! (not surprising at all, since your SOP was GREAT - but still AWESOME!) EEK!
zanmato4794 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 YES, please do... if only so that you actually get the chance to announce it yourself . The acceptance WAS me, actually. They were having trouble finding my GRE scores, so I just assumed this was a follow-up email. Apparently not. I guess the time really is upon us... Haha sorry. The mystery was killing us. Congratulations though! To be in easy driving distance of DC and all the resources there would really be something.
unræd Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Congrats, Hypervodka! I'm just confused as to why they seem to be coming so early. Congrats to all who have been accepted so far! I can't speak for the other people who've received offers from other schools, but the sense I've gotten thus far is that the earliness of my Urbana admission was tied up with the deadline for the specific (sort of crazy good?) fellowship they're applying for on my behalf. I don't think it means that they've made all the other decisions about the cohort, or that people who haven't heard yet won't be admitted! Edited since I now see that lyonessrampant mentioned this upthread! Edited January 16, 2015 by unræd
Dr. Old Bill Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Man, I leave my lair for a few hours to attend a play in D.C., and suddenly everything blows up! Congratulations Unraed and Hypervodka! Fantastic news! Such exciting times here on GC... ETA: Gah, we need more upvote capacity! Edited January 16, 2015 by Wyatt's Torch
Katla Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Congratulations unræd and hypervodka!!!! What amazing news!!!
Scottstein Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Congrats everyone who is getting accepted.Its all hard-earned. So,I wanted to ask Hypervodka if Emory has sent out all its interview calls..sad if that is the case
hypervodka Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Congrats everyone who is getting accepted.Its all hard-earned. So,I wanted to ask Hypervodka if Emory has sent out all its interview calls..sad if that is the case I would think so, at this point, since I got my own notification ten days ago. I'm sorry to hear it. But the season is young! There's still so many other schools for us all to hear from.
