johnnieoz Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Yep! Rejected by UCLA last week and Berkeley today. Still waiting to hear from Irvine and UCSD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bri Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Ha all of my schools are on the opposite coast. I am sorry to hear that about UCLA and Berkeley. Don't give up hope! I've had a few rejections (OSU and Rutgers) and just got into SUNY-Albany. What are your interests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnieoz Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Immigration, specifically assimilation. All of these schools have great faculty and affiliated research centers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersonicman Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 I also plan on studying Migration, tran-nationalism, and Citizenship. I have been rejected by UCLA, and am waiting for decisions from UCSD, CUNY, Chicago, and NYU. Though I also applied to some PoliSci programs. I saw UCSD rejected some applicants, does anyone know whats going on there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
durkheim Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 anyone apply to and hear from princeton? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weber Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 No, but I'm also waiting on Princeton for Anthropology...Great department but I don't know how much I want to spend all that time in princeton (of course, I would be thrilled if accepted). What's their sociology dept known for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoebed Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Supersonicman: I got into UCSD on Friday. A professor from the Soc/Sci Studies programme called me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bri Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Ahhh I can't stand the wait anymore. Why can't all schools tell you on the same day?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersonicman Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Phoebed, That's really great you got in!!!! I hope I'll be following. I just wanted to know, did they change your Status on the website? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summah Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I got into UCSD a week ago. When I checked the webpage they changed my status so that it now shows a link for the admissions decision. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersonicman Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Do you think the fact that UCSD hasn't given me an answer yet means anything? I saw they rejected some people and accepted others, do you think that it might indicate that I'm on their waiting list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rising_star Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 No, but I'm also waiting on Princeton for Anthropology...Great department but I don't know how much I want to spend all that time in princeton (of course, I would be thrilled if accepted). What's their sociology dept known for? You wouldn't have to. There's fieldwork and writing elsewhere to save you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summah Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I'm not sure about UCSD's time frame. I was contacted early because they needed more information in order to nominate me for a university fellowship. I'm guessing that if I hadn't been nominated for a fellowship, I would probably not know about their decision yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkflyer Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 What are you all interested in? I'm interested in Sex and Gender, Quality of Life, Aging/Life Course, relationships, and symbolic interactionism. I'm also interested in stratification related to the above. I've been accepted to OSU with funding so far. Still waiting on Four schools, been rejected to two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms. Marx Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 So far I have gotten accepted to Berkeley (which was my top choice, so I am pleased) and UCLA and was rejected from Princeton (meh). I applied to 10 programs in total. Question: has anyone heard from University of Michigan or Harvard yet? Good luck to everyone... the waiting is a bitch.

johnnieoz Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Supersonicman: I just e-mailed the Soc Dept at UCSD today and asked for info. Three hours later, I get an e-mail from the Grad School Admissions folks not from the department. I was rejected. And then it told me to check the website, which just had a copy of the same generic letter. Of all four UC schools, only UCLA sent out anything without being prodded. And only Berkeley and Irvine actually sent out something from the department rather than the Grad Divisions. I am 0 for 4 and thus won't be joining y'all next year. Too bad. Good Luck!!! 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnieoz Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Anyone with ideas on where us "rejects" can apply next year? I need a good safety state school and/or private school on the West Coast. Field: immigration. Particular Funding Situation: International Student, i.e. more expensive, esp in UC system that doesn't offer waivers for those forced to pay out of state tuition. :idea: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weber Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 You wouldn't have to. There's fieldwork and writing elsewhere to save you... Except for that residency and teaching requirement. So at least three years, I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennesy Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 johnnieoz: I got in to Northeastern, it seems like they aren't too selective with their admission process. Also you can try Kent State or LSU. (I know they're not in the region that you're looking for, but they seem to have funding available and are really looking to recruit students.)

socap Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 I got three rejections, Wisc-Madison, Michigan-ann arbor, and UIUC, no offer. I see the offer from Northwestern and rejection from Rutgers and Duke, but I do not hear my news from there places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennesy Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 "I see the offer from Northwestern and rejection from Rutgers and Duke, but I do not hear my news from there places." ??? What does this mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weber Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 i think s/he meant that s/he saw that results for those schools had been reported on the website, but has not heard from them him/herself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnieoz Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Thanks Jennesy! We'll see if they have any immigration experts. :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
