florentinoariza Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Probably you got the same email from the DGS that I just did, but in case they're sending it out piecemeal, it looks like their admit stuff is going to be the 18th-19th (W-Th) of March.... Thanks descendingblue, I just heard further and looks like that's right. I probably am not going to be able to make those days, because I'm across a big cold ocean from Brown in March. Let me know how it goes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hannalore Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Welp, I'm on "high on the waitlist" for funding at GSU. The DGS told me to pretty much expect things to work out, so for the sake of my continuing sanity I'm going to assume this means I will be starting a program in the fall. I have no idea where news like this goes, so I apologize if I have chosen...poorly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InHacSpeVivo Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Well played, Hannalore! JSYK, I told the DGS I would let him know ASAP. There are at least six programs that would cause me to drop the offer if they gave me funding, but one of them just needs to let me in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May I ask the person you emailed, Hannalore? And In Hac? Edited February 14, 2015 by obrial42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarolineNC Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I just talked to a friend who has a PhD from Ku, where I'm finishing my master's. She warned me that Davis (the school I'm leaning toward right now) is going to be a lot harder than Ku. What do you guys think of this statement? Should I be scared?

Personally, I hope it's harder. Shouldn't the PhD be, like, the hardest thing we've ever done? KGB and LCB 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarolineNC Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Got accepted to KU's PhD program today w/ a fellowship. I won't be accepting, so hopefully a waitlister will be made happy.

allplaideverything Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Caroline, congrats! I had to cut KU from my list, but I miss Kansas so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lycidas Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Accepted at BU! This now means that over half my acceptances have come on a weekend. And here I thought I could relax and not check my phone obsessively on Saturdays and Sundays... Ramus, lo.lee.ta and doc1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Old Bill Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Huzzah, Caroline and Lycidas! I have a friend who was truly crestfallen that I didn't apply to BU. She graduated from there many years ago, but has nothing but fantastic things to say about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InHacSpeVivo Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Congrats Caroline and Lycidas! This fines for any Boston admits, but as a six year resident (four of those in Boston proper), I'm happy to share any info via PM. It's funny, I was just saying correspondence is common in Saturdays, but I'm shocked by the number of Sunday notifications this year! And good luck to all the OSU fellow nominees! pannpann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Has anyone applied to KU? I don't see it in anyone's signatures) I applied to Kansas but have heard nary a word! Though I am rhet/comp, which might not be the same field as you.

CarolineNC Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I applied to Kansas but have heard nary a word! Though I am rhet/comp, which might not be the same field as you. Nope, I'm lit. Good luck on the rhet/comp application. Our program for that is awesome (I'm at KU for an MA right now) and our rhet/comp faculty and students are the nicest in the whole department. mmmscience 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
