overoverover Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Thanks a lot for the point. I have an external scholarship of ~22k, which seems to be okay... My concern is more about the global reputation of this program out of Canada... The best way to figure that out is to look at placement records.

kant_get_in Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Is anyone else just twiddling their thumbs, having not heard from any of the programs they applied to? Overoverover? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overoverover Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) Is anyone else just twiddling their thumbs, having not heard from any of the programs they applied to? Overoverover? You rang? Basically, yeah. I have 1 implied rejection (Berkeley) and 1 god-knows-what (UCLA), but there's been nothing from 9 others. It's not a terrible situation to be in (it could be worse), but the anxious waiting is getting to me.

psm1580b Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Is anyone else just twiddling their thumbs, having not heard from any of the programs they applied to? Overoverover? Basically the same. I have one official rejection and two implied, but other than that ... who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hcarp Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I remember someone here said that UCLA keeps an internal wait-list. Do you know what's the etiquette in soliciting, and when would be a good time to do that? GWFHegelFTW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isostheneia Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 Question for the UCSD admits: did your acceptance come with any information about funding? Yes, it's $20K with TA duties starting first year, maximum six years of TAing, and one year of dissertation fellowship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a terrible situation to be in (it could be worse), but the anxious waiting is getting to me. I feel your pain. 1 assumed rejection from Chicago, and nothing from the rest. What is even more frustrating is that this is the latest both UNC and ND have released for the past three years. I'm trying to look at this as one of those what-doesn't-kill-you-makes-you-stronger moments... but it's killing me.

Matt Bauer Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I feel your pain. 1 assumed rejection from Chicago, and nothing from the rest.

I'm trying to look at this as one of those what-doesn't-kill-you-makes-you-stronger moments... but it's killing me. Just checked my app status with chicago and saw that the rejection. Hope you have better luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rednegativity Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Just saw a rejection (but no acceptances) from Miami University Ohio's masters program. How unusual is that? I wouldn't be so anxious about it, except I haven't received word from a single school so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reixis Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Congrats to everyone who got in UNC! I wish I had applied there, but for a couple of reasons I couldn't. Anyway, I've heard good things about the program, it seems like a great place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
