I suppose it is possible that people may decline their offers which may open the door to getting an acceptance. But I am considering this closed. Expand I'm sorry! last Friday I called SpEd, and they said that this week those of us hanging on would find out if we were rejected, accepted, or waitlisted. It's crappy that they're waiting till the end to tell all of the rejections when they've probably known for a while. I've lost hope though.

That is something. The waiting is taking its tole on me... With me being in the Ed Neuro program and not having any idea what timeline they are following *shrug*
Fleet23 Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Someone posted a rejection phone call on the results page for PhD in LTD. If you are lurking here, I would love to know if you were interviewed and who called you to let you know your status.

Prefer2Lurk Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 For the PhD program, I received a phone call from my potential advisor the week after recruitment weekend telling me I had been admitted. The official paper work hasn't arrived in the mail, however, so I'm in a "got to see it to believe it" holding pattern.

Vandy12345? Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 Are there any masters applicants out there who are waiting?

People do get offers and turn them down, but I know the wait is awful. I still haven't heard (CRA) but I'm guessing I will soon. Fingers crossed there, too!
Fleet23 Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 @communityhopeful Thanks! Sending good vibes your way too.

docdecisionsohio Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 " Thank you for your interest in our Learning, Teaching, and Diversity graduate program. I am sorry to have to inform you that our review of your application and credentials did not lead to a recommendation of admission. If you have applied to more than one Vanderbilt program, you will receive a separate communication regarding your application to each program. The Graduate School at Vanderbilt University receives applications from many outstanding candidates. Unfortunately, limited resources and competition among well-qualified applicants preclude our offering admission to all who seek it. Please know that your application and supporting materials received a close and careful review. Admissions decisions are difficult, both for faculty who review applications and for applicants who await notification. I regret having to send you this disappointing news, but I wish you every success in the pursuit of your educational goals. "

Sad but coping here. I went for a long walk in the rain to help me deal with it. I had been really hopeful! It's a really great program and I don't think this is a program many people turn down offers, so I am not expecting the wait-list to amount to an admission. But I'll be OK. Best of luck with the rest of the application process, everyone! And best to the incoming class, too!

Liquid Snake Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) Admitted . any advice folks got about negotiating money at Peabody? They offered racks, but I know I can get more. I just need some ammo before I pressure folks for what I want. Edited March 5, 2016 by Liquid Snake

When I applied in 2013 UNM didn't send me my rejection letter until August. I actually appreciate so many of them going to email and online applications. :-)

If I get rejected, I was planning to try again next year :/
EdNeuroGrl Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 I have no idea what their opinion on applicants reapplying
