Jtdrum10 Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 No I didn't get to see either. Baumeister/Tice are in California and I'm not sure about Ericsson. That would have been cool though I applied to work with Tice. Her still being in California gives me a little hope...
jhmoss1812 Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 I applied to work with Tice. Her still being in California gives me a little hope... I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it didn't sound like Tice was taking any students this year. Although she and Baumeister have a joint lab, he already accepted one student and was possibly taking another (who was at the Interview Weekend). I am not saying that all hope should be lost, but I got the impression that she won't be adding to the lab. They already have 10 graduate students so it would be surprising if they added even more. Good luck though...

Good luck though... Hate to be adding insult to injury, but I emailed Tice last year and she said she isn't taking students. Hey, at least this is a less painful way to find out than getting a rejection letter out of the blue. At least you now know it has nothing to do with you or your credentials. Or so I hope...

Jtdrum10 Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 When I e-mailed her early last fall she told me to apply which is why I did. She was upfront with me about her coming back from her sabbatical and her being unsure about the financial issues but she told me to apply anyways. I knew it was a long shot.

Social Psyc Researcher Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 @Jlloyd87: Well, that's good news! I received their little confirmation email last week and wasn't too worried yet. That being said, did she happen to mention whether or not they were offering an interview weekend? Of course, with over 10,000 view to this thread, I bet we're not the only ones applying to DePaul. Anyone applying to Tulane? I applied to Tulane, I had a phone interview last week and recently got an email saying I had been wait listed for an in-person interview.
Social Psyc Researcher Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 I've been waitlisted at University of Kansas. They said they wanted a class of 3-4. They sent out 10 offers of admission and then created an alternate list. Letter dated 2/12/10 I got that same letter about being wait listed and it seems like several others on here did as well, did they actually reject anyone?
Social Psyc Researcher Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 I know I keep posting this but has anyone heard from/know anything about Penn State, Indiana, or Iowa State? I'm not allowing myself to contact the programs until the second week of March so I'm relying on you all instead. :-) I got my rejection letter from Penn State a couple days ago.
Social Psyc Researcher Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 I was doing bad yesterday after a rejection, but just got a phone call from my top choice saying I was the first student they chose to accept! Take that other school! Acceptances: 2 Interviews: 3 Rejections: 1 Congrats!! What is your top choice school?
Social Psyc Researcher Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 Has anyone heard from the U Mass - Amherst Psychology of Peace and Violence program? Nope, not a word
juror#1 Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 Congrats!! What is your top choice school? Thanks!! As of right now it is probably UNL, though I received a late night acceptance from John Jay two days ago, so I am waiting for them to finalize the financial package and see if it changes anything. Both of those programs have been my #1 & 2 interchangeably since the beginning, so I know I will be happy with either . Social Psyc Researcher 1
psychdork Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 I got my rejection letter from Penn State a couple days ago. Unfortunately so did I, but thanks for letting me know anyway!
a.arcane Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 I got that same letter about being wait listed and it seems like several others on here did as well, did they actually reject anyone? I was waitlisted there last year -rejected this year
psychdork Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 If anyone is wondering, according to the grad secretary, the adcomm at Miami University (OH) met last week and are starting to notify applicants this week. Does anyone have any information about Indiana, or Iowa State?

Both of those programs have been my #1 & 2 interchangeably since the beginning, so I know I will be happy with either . Do you have any idea how many people UNL accepted? I have been told I am next in line on the waiting list, not really sure how good that is considering I don't really know how many applicants they plan to accept, the chances that they will accept anyone from the waiting list, etc. I was on the waiting list a 2 different universities last year and neither ended up accepting anyone from the waiting list...

I am honestly not sure, though I do know that they told me the sooner the better for a decision so they could accept people off the waitlist. And I promise I am trying to figure it out as fast as I feel comfortable. Who is your POI at UNL?

And I promise I am trying to figure it out as fast as I feel comfortable. Who is your POI at UNL? Thanks for the info, I know they are encouraging people to respond quickly but it sounds like you should take your time to decide which program is the best fit, especially considering you are trying to decide between your two top schools. My POI is Dr. Wiener, I guess that is another thing I hadn't thought about, I don't know if the waiting list would be for the program or for Dr. Wiener's lab specifically...if it is the latter that would obviously reduce my chances so I hope isn't. How about you, who is your POI?
Social Psyc Researcher Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 I was waitlisted there last year -rejected this year That same thing happened to me with Penn State, last year wait listed- this year rejected right off the bat
jordy Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 I'm confused- Tice/Baumeister are in California? Did you know they're married? Not that it's relevant or anything, but I always enjoy a fun fact. It wouldn't inform what they're doing in Cali, but it might explain why they're both in Cali.

It wouldn't inform what they're doing in Cali, but it might explain why they're both in Cali. That is fun trivia. I just thought they were at Florida...what school now?

It wouldn't inform what they're doing in Cali, but it might explain why they're both in Cali. Ha! I knew it! They do so much brilliant intellectuallizing together, it's only fitting that they should be married. Kind of like the Pierre and Marie Curie of American psychology, however corny that might be
jlloyd87 Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 If the person with the A&M acceptance is on here, can you say who your POI is?
jhmoss1812 Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 It's kind of weird, we have NINE faculty couples in my department and most of them have joint labs and collaborate on research. My mentor is married to the chair of the department, so I get to enjoy a few perks from that And I think I heard that Tice/Baumister are on sabbatical What a small world!! We have NINE faculty couples in my department as well. And yeah, I think I mentioned they were on sabbatical. What school do you go to?
jlloyd87 Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 I got my unofficial rejection today from Tennessee. For the curious ones, I emailed to find out.
jhmoss1812 Posted March 6, 2010 Posted March 6, 2010 I woke up this morning to an e-mail from Jon Maner saying I had been accepted into FSU's social psychology program I immediately accepted. I am speechless but so excited!!! psychdork and jlloyd87 2
