reddog Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 what the title says... what program are you applying to? I'm also curious to know how you'll deal with decisions, given that most application deadlines are quite late and acceptances will probably come after April 15th?

smmurdock Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I applied for the History of Holocaust and Genocide Studies MA. I was accepted but was waitlisted for funding. UvA is a bit different than traditional schools in the sense that they don't have a formal acceptance date but just assume you are accepting their offer/admission unless you tell them otherwise.

reddog Posted March 10, 2016 Author Share Posted March 10, 2016 @smmurdock Congrats! I'd be interested to know whether or not you decide to accept the offer! Can you say what Embark looked like after your status changed from documents 'received' to the next step? Mine has been stuck on documents received for a while now, I am so curious to know what comes next! Btw, I am applying to the GSSS and they do seem to have fixed application and notification deadlines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kristie_m Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Hey! I've applied to University of Amsterdam Sociology MA/PHD program for Fall 2017. I submitted my application on December 27, 2016 and have talked to the secretary of the Graduate Department of Social Sciences. She informed me I may not hear back until May... I am a little concerned as I am a U.S. citizen and have applied to U.S. universities, where the universal date of accepting/rejecting your offers in the states is normally April 15th. Does anyone know if they possibly submit acceptances or rejections earlier than May? Also, does anyone know the acceptance rates for the Sociology program? Any info would be greatly appreciated! Good luck to all applicants as well! mskhwise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to all applicants as well! @Liiahhhh In my case, I applied to a Master's at UvA in December and received the acceptance in January, and I'm currently waiting the results of the AES and AMS scholarships. It's quite strange they will give you a decision so late. Will you be applying for any of those scholarships (if you're doing the Master's) ? According to some at the TGC search section, these results will be available in March-April. Edited February 6, 2017 by eternalwait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I received my confirmation for submitting my application but every time I click on the link to track my status the page will not load. Were you notified via email?

kristie_m Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Also, I just checked my info and it says next to 'status': "Admission Decision" I am confused what this entails. Can anyone help with this? mskhwise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mskhwise Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I am in the same boat. Today MyInfo changed to "Status : Admission Decision" but I have no idea what that means. I applied for a masters at GSSS. Anyone have better luck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
