reify_this Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Wait, is Princeton doing their notifications by phone this year? That seems like it would be a bit out of sync with the method of notification they appear to normally use (or, at least, out of sync with the method of notification for decisions posted on the results board over the past several years). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might have been somebody already in contact with a POI who received an informal call after the committee finalized their decisions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluefoxblue Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Yeah, another Berkeley rejection here. It was one of my top choices and am super sad about it.  I'm nervous that I'll be roundly rejected this year, but still holding up some hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HopefulSocPhD Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Looks like an acceptance to Brown on the results board. If that's not @goofylemon, looks like Brown is starting to notify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately It's not me. I have claimed on results board very earlier last week. So I am really not making you guys panic, but honestly it's not me.

c11m07 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Hi there. I'm another long-time lurker. Only applied to four schools, one of which is Brown. @goofylemon , would you mind answering this question-- when you log in to the website, does it say you've been accepted there or is your status still "submitted" (you were notified via a personal email, right?)?

lioneironaut Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Interesting about Brown, because they've literally never notified this early from the results history. My guess is that one is another special case and we won't hear until next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My POI has contacted me and told me "not literally", but prepare to pack my bag and move to Providence lol... I am sure Brown is sending multiple acceptance letters today. Hope everyone good luck!

Shay825 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Can anyone claim the Brown admit from last night? Last I checked, the highest possible score on each section of the GRE is 170, with total points possible being 340. The post shows GRE scores as 191/169/5.00. Typo, maybe?

Definitely a typo!! *not claiming it though, obvs* *I had a dream last night* that I saw Brandeis admits on the board, and my heart sank cause I didn't get one. Then I saw a post here where someone said "Brandeis will send out their decisions by midnight." and I ended up getting an email and thought I was rejected, but I got waitlisted! I was so relieved in the dream to get waitlisted at Brandeis haha. This was all a dream though. Cause in years past, there was only 3 spots and over 80 applicants.  Hopefully we get some good Brandeis news soon!!   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ConsciousKid Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 (edited) @Shay825 @gingin6789 I actually applied to Brandeis last year and was wait listed. Initially I was bummed, but when the DOGS told me they were only able to admit 4 – I felt much better. I reapplied this year hoping for a different outcome. But I know both of you are fantastic candidates and shouldn't have any issues being admitted!!! I will say that Brandeis isn't the BEST fit, but I would have to consider if admitted. Hope we hear some news soon!  Edited February 4, 2016 by ConsciousKid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakoak Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 (edited) Same here with Brown. No e-mails or website updates. Should IÂ be getting prepared for another rejection? Edited February 4, 2016 by oakoak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
