NSSLHANerd Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I'm dying to hear from this school! Last year the portal was updated around March 12. Does anyone know if they will be notifying soon? I saw they notified their Aud candidates (different program I realize but it's close!) Does anyone have any insider info about the program?
jvd Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I don't have any insider info but I'm also hoping to hear back from ISU soon! I just tried logging in and their website won't load for me. Maybe this means they're updating?
Madgab14 Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I've been obsessively checking the portal and the results page this week because I thought we would definitely know by now. Hoping we hear tomorrow! I know they're on spring break, so that might be a factor. Who knows.
NSSLHANerd Posted March 13, 2015 Author Posted March 13, 2015 jvd: Clear your cache!! The only way I can log onto their site is to clear my browsing history, otherwise it takes forever to load/doesnt load. I have a friend who is a grad student there and she said we should have heart on Tuesday. I did see that many other programs gave notice (chemistry, engineering) so I bet we are next on the list!
macklin_b Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Did you guys have to send your transcripts to ISU in addition to CSDCAS? I just checked my portal and it said transcripts are missing, so I spoke with someone from graduate admissions and he said ISU needs their own copies too. So frustrating.
NSSLHANerd Posted March 13, 2015 Author Posted March 13, 2015 I did have to do that. I noticed my portal said that back when I first applied and nobody told me so I called and had them sent there... I'm sorry to hear that they didn't get yours. The issue with this process is that sometimes things are not overt and you have to sleuth your way to completing your applicatin which I agree .. Is definitely frustrating! mandypo333 1
Madgab14 Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Same thing happened to me! I noticed near the end of January that my transcripts were missing. When I emailed the woman listed as a contact on the portal, she told me that the department would still be considering my application since all materials didn't have to be in by 1/15. I probably exchanged like 10 emails with this woman trying to check to make sure my transcripts got there haha. She was really nice and understanding about it though!
daniellecsd Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) I'm an undergrad there and still waiting patiently. Yes it's spring break, but in the past, that's when they posted results in the portal. It's really weird...Im hoping to hear soon! Edited March 13, 2015 by daniellecsd
Madgab14 Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 (edited) Has anyone heard anything? I havent seen anything on the results page so I was thinking about emailing the department, but I keep thinking we should hear anytime this week. Edited March 17, 2015 by Madgab14
Madgab14 Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Just saw that someone was admitted on the results page. Mine still doesn't show anything so now I'm worried!
NSSLHANerd Posted March 18, 2015 Author Posted March 18, 2015 Madgab: I checked a little earlier today (around noon) and nothing had changed and there was nobody admitted in the results search. I am concerned as well because I worry that the portal is not that reliable. I am hoping my portal changes from that pesky orange triangle soon.
aajenki2 Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Do you think they have already sent out the acceptances and we have to call to see if we are on the waitlist?
NSSLHANerd Posted March 18, 2015 Author Posted March 18, 2015 My friend checked and was admitted. I have a feeling this means we are not admitted outright.
NSSLHANerd Posted March 18, 2015 Author Posted March 18, 2015 (edited) I am guessing we are either waitlisted or rejected. There is something to be said about how it says the application is under review still. There could be a shot. Edited March 18, 2015 by NSSLHANerd
Madgab14 Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Yeah it looks like there's a good number of people who were admitted today. I want to stay positive and believe there's still a shot for an acceptance, but honestly we're probably either waitlisted or rejected, which really sucks. This was one of my top choices I hope it's a waitlist, but it's still not ideal.
NSSLHANerd Posted March 19, 2015 Author Posted March 19, 2015 Does anyone know how the tuition works for the neighboring states? The ISU site says that neighboring states qualify for in state tuition...but I could not find how much a graduate credit was. They only had semester calculations. This school is my most expensive option but I know it is a good program...I am waiting for my letter in hopes I was awarded an assistantship. Anyone have experience with the cost of this program, as an out of state applicant?
