ConsciousKid Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 @krispykreme yes it is. My page still says "submitted" but now above the "view checklist" box there is a box that says "view your decision letter". Â krispykreme 1

As a fellow Emory reject, I raise my glass of pink Moscato to you! I've been there, and it suuuucks. *hugs* sorry to hear about the bad news :-( Â
Katastrophe Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 If any of the other Wisconsin admits are interested: I semi-interrogated Charlotte about the potential funding today! Feel free to pm me if you want to know more    Shamon and gordyn 2

I'm a Providence native and this has been a dream of mine forever. Very very thankful for this opportunity. Congrats. As I have been hanging here looking for other Brown admits, I am super happy to see anothe grad cafe Brownie. Welcome to the cohort of 2016. I'll see you in March 14. Why don't we PM to share the POI and research interests  Edited February 6, 2016 by goofylemon
soc13 Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 Two Indiana acceptances up... Congratulations! Guessing it was folks who interviewed.Â
HopefulSocPhD Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 With four admits and a pretty small cohort, I wonder if there will be any more Brown admits, or if rejections should be coming soon...

I quickly scanned past years and it seems like 4-7 admits post per year (usually 4-5 I think). I'm thinking rejections will come start of next week. There's still hope I suppose, but I'm bracing myself for my first rejection (first news at all!). :/
c11m07 Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 ... And cue my panic at having only applied to four schools. Not smart.Â

Brown will be rejection #6 for me. I just want this season to be over with. 4 more rejections and I'm done.

I'm sure people keep saying this and you're probably tired of hearing it, but it's not over until it's over-- even without Brown, something could pan out at the other three schools. That being said, I think I get where you're coming from. It's incredibly frustrating to be in this limbo (can we just call it hell?) that keeps feeling less hopeful. Anyway, I'm rooting for you, but yeah-- this is brutal. I've been trying to do whatever I can to take my mind off it-- with very limited success. Do something to take care of yourself today if you can.  HopefulSocPhD, gingin6789 and gordyn 3

I agree.  It's really disheartening to get bad news and almost as bad to expect bad news.  I stopped looking at the grad results search page and stick (mostly!) to the forums after seeing a waitlist entry for a program I applied to, and nearly weeping over a cup of coffee and overthinking how I could have made my application better.  And then the same day I got an acceptance!  The same thing happened to a good friend of mine last year when she was applying to a program - convinced herself that she wasn't going to get into her dream school because she saw lots of acceptances on the search forum, until a month later she saw she got in.  Even then she said she wished she hadn't looked because it kind of made her feel like she was a "second pick" but then got over it and rejoiced in getting into the school she wanted to.  Anyway, even if you're waitlisted at a program that isn't the end... February fortunately/unfortunately has a long way to go and things could very well shift.  Good luck, and I hope you get some good news soon!  Edited February 6, 2016 by ts1493 HopefulSocPhD 1

oakoak Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 Has anyone claimed the Pittsburgh admit on the results page? There seems to be only one post, I am wondering if more will be coming.
