I GOT ACCEPTED TO UC DAVIS

 

SO excited for positive news that I neglected to quote BOTH things that I meant to lol. Congratulations! :D

Alright... I just want to preface by saying I'm really sorry, but I'd love to talk to someone about Stanford MTL. I have a transcript issue; namely, I was told I need not worry about sending an official transcript unless I'm offered admission. So, according to my favorite person in the world, the MTL program assistant, my file is complete. However, the webpage says the university requires official paper transcripts as part of a complete application. The caveat for me is that my degree and official transcripts are tied to some money I owe (bursar won't release them until my account is clear) so I'm not able to send anything until I secure loans. I'm so nervous. Help my nerves!

 

I don't know about Stanford, but I've been anxiety-ing about this, too--I only sent official transcripts to a few schools, and one of my schools has a hold on my record so I didn't send that one out to anybody. Indeed, I've been wondering for the past few days if UC Davis in particular would consider my app, because their team contacted me about a missing letter of rec, and then said my file was complete despite me not sending them any transcripts, official or unofficial, and they just accepted me (!!).

 

I really would try not to worry about it if I were you. I think if they love you, they'll either ask for transcripts or overlook it. Fingers crossed for you!

My deepest congratulations to allplaideverything on your UC Davis acceptance! Super proud of you; my uncle teaches there and I was just talking with him about his role in the dilly dallying of admissions, and this year's accepted cohort is top notch. Hats off :)

Ps: thanks everyone for talking to me about MTL. I'll just listen to KD Lang and forget about it

Omg Lycidas congrats!! Is the phone interview informal, because I know gsas has a "no interviews" policy? I'm so happy for you and extremely scared for myself since I've also applied to Columbia English!

Just got an offer from UCLA (via an email from a POI)! Very excited (and surprised) to have options.

Still haven't heard anything from Chicago, so I'm assuming that, at least, is a dead end...

Congrats on UCLA!

I also assume chicago is a dead end for me too.

That is AMAZING! My MA thesis advisor went there; I've heard nothing but wonderful things (and, of course, it's a leading program).

Yes, it sounds pretty informal, a phone conversation to discuss my application and the program in general. I have no idea if they do this for everyone, so I wouldn't get too down yet. Too early to tell!

To my fellow MTL hopeful, best of luck!

 

Also, congratulations to all the acceptances today! Wonderful news!

In at UMass Amherst! Apparently acceptances can come at any time of day, even after midnight!

Judging by the results board, Amherst seems to be rolling out their notifications in little bits and pieces. I thought I was a likely rejection when I saw the first acceptances go by almost a week ago, so I wouldn't give up hope on Amherst unless you get an official rejection letter

Gah! I picked a bad day to go to bed early! Congrats ModifiedMolloy, Lycidas, and Margeryhemp on your awesome acceptances! And good luck to you again, Lycidas, on your interview at Columbia!

Congratulations on Amherst, Lycidas! It's a lovely town.

 

Thanks everyone! My pernicious plan to infiltrate and conquer the Boston suburbs seems to be falling into place...(laughs manically)
