I have a friend that was told explicitly from Eva Kittay that she is getting an acceptance in the second round and she hasn't heard yet. Plus, it looks like no one from the second round has heard yet... Did I miss it? so there was a second round? is your friend an MA there? i'm also suspicious and presuming my rejection. blah. it seems like nobody has heard anything. the person i talked to was a department admin and she said she thought acceptances for phd were sent out last friday. it's definitely all weird.
brekekexkoax Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Just now, MickeyRay said: Yeah I am pretty sure this first round was just for university wide fellowships, and that they accept more students than have been notified. My friend is not an MA there, she is an MA somewhere else but is friends with Eva. Hm, yeah I'm not sure. I'm not going to hold my breath, but I just want others to be aware that there is information contradicting the idea that they're all out. i guess we will find out soon enough. i'm not holding my breath either. unless they really sent things out via snail mail which would be crazy.

The admin is the person I've been most in contact with, so I would imagine that she would know the deal. But it's always possible that she's mistaken, especially if others are saying otherwise. The only other thing I've heard from SB (besides the informal acceptance, the formal acceptance, and the fellowship things) is that we're all gonna be hanging out some week in March. Where did you apply this cycle?

Where did you apply this cycle? The admin i spoke to wasn't Katie Amelia, if that makes a difference. i just called the generic department number. ooh March! i applied to CUNY, BC, BU, New School, Fordham (rejected), Western Ontario CSTC, McGill

How do you know you were rejected by Fordham? Did you get an email or letter or something?

We're going to interview on these dates. Tell us when you're not available. And we'll let you know our decision soon thereafter." But it wasn't necessarily personalized, it just had my name at the top.

iamtheother Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 I think DePaul interviews all of their top candidates. Well done.

It's possible that they simply forgot to change the date when posting their result, but wouldn't it be cool if more waitlists were coming? Abendstern 1
philosophe Posted February 13, 2016 Posted February 13, 2016 Brown?!?! Anyone want to tell me more? I thought the day was done!

philosophe Posted February 13, 2016 Posted February 13, 2016 I just want to know if it's currently happening or if the emails were sent during business time.

Even if by some miracle I get accepted, funding is just about nonexistent.
