I believe there were some acceptances sent out a few weeks back that I saw on the results page. The wait is killing me. I feel like we're going to have to wait until April 15th when people make their decisions. ugh. I saw that too. What's weird is that I know they waitlist the majority of the people they don't outright accept, so I feel like we should've heard by now. Unless there was an insane amount of applications and it's just taking forever for them to mail them out. That's why they should use email!!

I would've loved to have been on U of Akron's wait list but they flat out denied me, and I didn't bother applying to Case because I knew I wouldn't get in! But keep me posted on your decision especially since I will be attending Ohio University! Good luck

I think a lot of the time you can find ways to make the most of the school you are at. Maybe talk to the professors and see how you connect with them, and definitely visit the in state school's campus. Personally, I chose the cheaper school, but I don't doubt for a second that the education I receive will be great.

I haven't seen anyone mention Boulder on this forum yet (?), but it would be really cool to connect with someone else who has been accepted and is considering attending their program! I'm going to the open house! I'm still trying to decide on UW, Boulder, and SDSU. I walked around SDSU this Monday, I'm going to the open house at Boulder this coming Monday, and going to the open house at UW the following Monday. Looking at the agenda Boulder sent us today, it definitely seems worth it to go to the open house! On an unrelated note, I was coincidentally eating sesame mochi earlier haha Edited March 25, 2016 by talkingcake

Talk about adding stress to this process...my housing options are dwindling unless I want to pay tons of $$$$$ That happened to me and my roommates when we were house hunting last year. This time of the month is crazy for housing options. Have you looked at Zillow or Craigslist? Or maybe you could email some of the grad students who are about to graduate and see about picking up a lease from one of them.

Unfortunately I'm a little limited in my options because I have a cat, but I did find some places on zillow that work if I'm willing to have a little more of a commute (now hopefully they're actually available..). Looking for housing out of state is just difficult as is ? Rorororosy 1

SD has great weather all year round And I'm glad to connect with someone else attending Open House at Boulder. I walked around the Boulder campus today, and coincidentally froze... I felt very out of my element as a life-long Californian, haha. See you on Monday!

I feel your pain- being a life-long SoCal beach city resident, anything below 40 degrees is difficult for me to gauge. After arriving in Boulder, I didn't think it was too bad during the day today, but my fingers turned into popsicles at night haha See you in the morning! Edited March 28, 2016 by talkingcake

I haven't heard back from them either. Wondering if they only set out the first set of acceptances and are giving those people until April 15th before they send out more. The wait is killing me!

orange23 Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 Hi! For those of you guys that have already attended accepted student days or are going soon - any input on what we should wear?? I'm always so clueless on these things lol. Thanks!!!

When I went on a program tour, most everyone was wearing something business casual-y. There were a lot of dresses and a few of the girls wore slacks with a nice blouse and jacket. Mainly closed toed shoes, but there were a few nice sandals in the mix. I'd stick with flats just to be safe; I don't know if nice sandals fall into the business casual realm for everyone. The guys wore slacks and polos or button-downs. Basically whatever you'd wear in the clinic! Rorororosy and orange23 2
BNorth Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 Hi, Did anyone get into University of South Carolina Distance Learning program?
SouthernDrawl Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 (edited) Does anyone know if the Western Kentucky University notifications posted today were for the online or on campus applicants? This distance applicant is stressing out! Edited March 30, 2016 by SouthernDrawl
Tommye Hunter Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 A friend was notified today that she was admitted to the online distance part-time. She wanted full-time but heard that it was easier to get in the part-time. I think that the regular campus students were notified too. They will admit more in about two weeks according to a former GA there. They will keep doing that until they get 25 students in each group, distance and campus. I'm not sure if it's 25 full-time and 25 part-time online distance or if it's 25 all together.
