jjb919 Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 I've heard nothing so far, although Fordham is the only one I applied to that seems to have started sending out notices. Maybe that's bad news for me, maybe not. Nothing to do but wait and see until I hear something definitive...

I just got an email from Fordham saying that they will be calling me tomorrow with good news regarding my application. An acceptance?! Someone must be greasing palms for me. You are absolutely cleaning up, lisamadura! I received the same email from Fordham last night and got the call this afternoon. So pumped! lisamadura 1

andaval Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 I'm also wondering whether anyone else on the forum received an email from Penn State regarding the interview, though I'm pretty sure that they contacted with the short-listed candidates.

psm1580b Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 It looks like Irvine released a few different department's acceptances today, including LPS (HPS is within their Logic and Philosophy of Science department, separate from philosophy). There was one HPS post from Irvine today. And my email is sadly empty.
philosophe Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 First accept!!!!! UCSB Siegfried42, frege-bombs, SamStone and 6 others 9

currentphilgrad Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 (edited) Congrats to everyone who's heard good news so far! I'm hoping to hear from WashU tomorrow. Ah! I'll be refreshing my email obsessively. Also, are we sure about the Irvine LPS acceptance? If I'm looking at the right thing it says "history of science." Couldn't that be a separate department? Maybe this is just wishful thinking on my part because I don't want to be shut out from my first three schools. Edited February 5, 2016 by currentphilgrad
PossibleWorlds Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 Any news from UC Berkeley yet? Does anyone know if they had earlier application deadlines last year? I noticed that most acceptances went out for Berkeley departments that had early or mid-December deadlines, but the philosophy deadline this year was Jan 5. Has the philosophy deadline always been this late? Fingers crossed for everyone waiting!
