Did you get waitlisted ? 

No idea. I haven't heard anything from them. I check my status each day, and it still says "out for decision." I assume I'm on some sort of informal waitlist, but this is getting ridiculous.

American? Me too. 

No, George Mason. I heard from American (SIS) in mid February.

Committed to UNC-Chapel Hill today after a visit on Monday that went great. Anyone else who ends up committing there and is looking to chat (or for a roommate) feel free to send me a PM. And thanks to everyone in this thread for the entertainment - I hope to work with you in the future!

I too have decided to commit to UNC. One of the hardest decisions I ever made.

Anyone planning on declining an offer from UNC Chapel Hill?
Or have any idea how long this wait list is?

Trying to judge my chance of getting off it............

I recently declined my offer. I hope that frees up a spot for you! :)

Fully funded offer at UGA :D

Still haven't heard anything at all from American. I emailed the Grad Director and he told me that they still hadn't even made admissions decisions.

!!!! can i ask your subfield?

I'm in AP; hoping this works out!

EDIT: I should add that I also expressed interest in public policy, so even if you're not an Americanist, this could help!

Ahh OK; I do comparative public policy so fingers crossed!!

Thanks for the good vibes and I'll post an update either way! After all, even if it's not me then someone else will be made very happy by this regardless :)

Confirmed my PhD position at King's College with a full scholarship and tuition from the ESRC.
Also have to do an obligatory study abroad semester at either UNC Chapel Hill or University of Singapore,

Hi there! I committed to UNC Chapel Hill for my PhD and you should definitely study there. It is a wonderful place, a great campus, and we have quite a few foreign students there. When I met them on my visitation, they were kind and interesting as was everyone. I do hope you consider studying at UNC.

If anyone has been accepted to the University of Illinois and doesn't plan to attend, please inform the department promptly. I have been waitlisted and would really like to attend this school!

That means you should have at most, one offer to decide on, right?
