anonymous_soc Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Got into OSU! Woo! Feel free to message me with any questions! Has anyone who's gotten in anywhere heard anything about funding? You don't have to say what you got, just curious if your funding package was included in your letter. Mine wasn't, but I'm trying to call now to figure it out. I received an offer of admission to UT- Austin today which included funding information. Schools are different; I'm sure that you'll be forwarded funding info shortly. Congrats on your acceptance to OSU! To all: feel free to PM with any questions!
460178985 Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 HUGE congrads! What a relief this must be. Sent you a PM. Replied to ur message
theoryoftheories Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Congratulations to everyone who has been accepted for far. I wonder if Texas is sending out acceptances in batches or all at once (like they have in the past). If it's the latter it looks like I'm looking down the barrel of rejection #1.
sociologybby Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 long time lurker. i'm in the same boat as some of y'all—haven't heard anything yet from UT-Austin. hopefully that doesn't mean rejection! sending good vibes to everyone
anna_M Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Congratulations everyone! Must be such a relieve!

sociologybby Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 has anyone been admitted WITHOUT being asked to do a skype interview/in person interview? getting kind of anxious... (the theme of the next few weeks )
anna_M Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 Yes! Many universities don't use interviews at all.
anonymous_soc Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 has anyone been admitted WITHOUT being asked to do a skype interview/in person interview? getting kind of anxious... (the theme of the next few weeks ) Yes, I received an offer of admission from Texas on Friday without an interview. As @anna_m pointed out, many universities don't interview
sociologybby Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 thanks @Anna_M and @anonymous_soc (and congrats on your Texas admission)! that is definitely a relief. anonymous_soc 1
bucketlist Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Congrats everyone who got an acceptance and all the best to those who are still waiting! Received an email a few days ago from Boston College asking me to confirm my phone numbers. Anyone else here got a similar email? Was wondering whether I should read deeper into it. Thanks!
mahimahi Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Should I concerned if I haven't anything back from any of my colleges? Not even interviews?
anonymous_soc Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 thanks @Anna_M and @anonymous_soc (and congrats on your Texas admission)! that is definitely a relief. Thanks, it definitely is a big relief
anonymous_soc Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Should I concerned if I haven't anything back from any of my colleges? Not even interviews? I probably wouldn't worry much at all about it. We're still quite early in the admissions reporting cycle.
uselesstheory Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 I probably wouldn't worry much at all about it. We're still quite early in the admissions reporting cycle. Agreed. I'd say most places haven't sent anything out yet. It seems like, at least to generalize roughly, that decisions come in waves by region (so Southern US/some Midwest, then most UCs, then more Northern/West places and miscellaneous schools). That's my general take on the results search trends from previous years.
ritsukot74 Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Thanks! I did apply to a cluster at Northwestern. There were 3 that I was really interested in so I had a tough time making a choice. How about you? Yeah! I applied to the Critical Theory cluster. Fingers crossed!!!
ritsukot74 Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Has anyone claimed that UI-UC acceptance??? Does anyone know if UI-Chicago has sent anything yet???
ritsukot74 Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 (edited) Should I concerned if I haven't anything back from any of my colleges? Not even interviews? Very few schools have sent out e-mails so far. I wouldn't worry about it until the beginning of February, then I'll start to freak out, but only about the schools that had an early admission (Jan Dec 1st - 15th). Has anyone heard back from UC Santa Barbara??? They had a super early application deadline (Jan Dec 1st). Edit: I meant to say December every time I said January.

uselesstheory Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 UCSB was December 1st Same with Boulder. The majority of my deadlines fell in mid-December.
ritsukot74 Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 UCSB was December 1st yeah, sorry. I meant to say December every time I said January.
Whatishistoryanyway Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Ahhh all this UCSB talk makes me think they received a gazillion applications again this year. It looks like they typically notify people toward the last week of Jan/first week of Feb, so no need to freak out just yet.
