JUST WHAT I'VE ALWAYS WANTED Whatever you do, don't rent from Everest Properties or Premium Properties. Google the name Lakireddy Bali Reddy if you want to know why. In addition to being managed by that scum, renting from them is a guarantee you won't get your deposit back.

Oh, that's good to know, thank you. I'll file that under "information I hope to some day need to use".

Need Coffee in an IV Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 And my last reference still hasn't submitted ANY of my letters...whhyyyyyy. The most expensive places I've applied to are Seattle and Boulder. I just started laughing that a similar size apartment was at least 1500-3000. I only pay 500 where I live now.

I agree (also applied to Boulder and Seattle!). I spent the summer in Boulder (and it's my top choice now). I paid $700 for a shoddy two-bedroom apartment in a crappy neighborhood, and here I pay $500 for a nice one-bedroom. At least if I don't get in, I'll be able to convince myself that I wouldn't have wanted to live there anyway (which is a filthy lie. Boulder can have my babies).

Seattle will always have a piece of my heart! I lived there as a kid and it's the perfect city in my eyes. I keep telling myself that too if I don't get in. Eugene is more affordable and its in the PNW so I wouldn't be tooo upset if I didn't get into Seattle. I've been able to sell my boyfriend on Eugene since its a smaller city, he hates feeling closed in ha. I just want to know, it would make planning actually possible ha. Pink Fuzzy Bunny 1

You can have Seattle, I'll take Boulder. I'll call to let them know of the decision in the morning. Need Coffee in an IV 1

haltheincandescent Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 @Pink Fuzzy Bunny Yay!! (Guess you didn't need that 3 month tranquilizer after all, eh? ) nevermind 1
hippyscientist Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 @Pink Fuzzy Bunny CONGRATULATIONS! and Michigan too! That's so exciting! Woohoo!!!
Jennadottswan Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 The 10 minutes it took me to read this thread allowed me to laugh along with the amazing fellow-assholes who just want to know what they will be doing for the next two years, and in what state. Until then, wine, pinterest, dog walks, wallowing in my anxiety filled sorrow of waiting, and anticipating a hopefully positive letter. hippyscientist 1
Yav Friendly Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 I do not like bacon. I probability would not like Star Wars in general. And I regret not having tried to apply to UPenn.
hippyscientist Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 @Jennadottswan who you calling assholes? This waiting game is so much more unbearable without exams to distract me!
honeybee77 Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 I applied to my top program that accepts applications on a rolling basis on November 9th. The email said the entire process takes about 6-8 from start to finish, and I still haven't heard back from the school. Taking into account the holidays, I'm on my 8th week now. When do you guys think is an appropriate time to email/call back for an update?
haltheincandescent Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 Oh: and now, there are the academia.edu views. But no city listed..... where are you from, mysterious visitor person??

RCtheSS Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 I wish I could hibernate until March 1. It's like my place of employment sensed that I submitted all my applications this weekend, and decided to ramp up on all work tasks at once!

I may take you up on that if I accept. I'm so excited to have been accepted somewhere with such a great cost of living, and a mighty fine university too. nevermind 1
123hardasABC Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 I just looked at my calendar and realized that my interview is next Friday. :X I feel nervous and jittery now.
