University of Tennessee Applicants

[Lunalulu2]

Hello everyone!  I am anxiously awaiting responses from 11 universities.  University of Tenn is the only that required only a CSDCAS application.  I submitted my application in November and I have not heard anything from them to indicate they received my materials.  Has anyone else that applied heard from them?  After looking at the results from last year they notified February 18th which is coming up soon!

I have not received any confirmation either, and I submitted my application in early December.

Thanks for letting me know. I was getting worried that they didn't even receive my application.

My undergrad was in English and Journalism but I didn't ed up with great stats (I had some major setbacks due to illness). 

My GPA: 3.4, GRE: V 151      Q 150    AW: 4.0.

I applied to Vanderbilt, East Tennessee State University, University of Tennessee Knoxville, Western Carolina University, and University of Montevallo. The only school I have heard back from is University of Tennessee; they apparently sift out everyone with GPA and GRE scores lower than what they want, regardless of the circumstances that may have led to them. They do that prior to delving into any other parts of the application from what I've heard. They told me that in the University visit but I actually thought they were simply trying to deter less serious applicants.

I have yet to hear back from any of the others but Western Carolina University did recently send out an email notifying me that they've begun reviewing applications and sending out notices of acceptance status.

Do you know what the GPA/GRE cutoffs are??
