she-evelyn Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 What about Boston College? There is one acceptance on the results page from the 8th, and it would be nice to know if the rest of the acceptances just weren't posted on Grad Cafe, or if the one posted is a fluke. Thanks for doing this, Nat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nat_Foot Posted February 15, 2016 Author Share Posted February 15, 2016 WUSTL: No information. The secretary seemed to be in the dark. She said that she would assume "soon," but that doesn't really say much. It does seem though that no offers have gone out yet, if that's helpful to know. Stony Brook: All acceptances have been sent out. If you haven't gotten one, assume you're on the WL or rejected. And yes, @Abendstern and @she-evelyn.

blacklake Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Also waiting to hear on Chicago's Social Thought. Thank you so much @Nat_Foot!! All this supposed results board trolling going on is frustrating (though somewhat entertaining), so I'm very thankful you're doing this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacbarcan Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I guess put Harvard on the list now too, but for a week or so since one may have come out today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

502845824 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Is there any way we could figure out what's going on at Duke? I think I was probably rejected, but it's been over two weeks since acceptances came out. I figured a rejection letter would come sooner than that. Was I waitlisted? Are they just super slow at rejecting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's correct. I crossed it out because I'm not longer including it on the list of places to call. I don't see any reason to at the moment. I'll call if we don't hear a word from them a few days after the predicted date, or we're uncertain whether claims are legitimate. Right now, I have no reason to believe that the alleged acceptance is legitimate. Apologies for not making that clear earlier!

Nat_Foot Posted February 15, 2016 Author Share Posted February 15, 2016 Also, if people still want me to call, I can. It's just that we didn't want to bombard them unnecessarily, and right now, I feel like calling them is unnecessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am assuming I got notified early because of the university-wide fellowship, and that other offers will go out this week (though I don't know for sure). It looks like they haven't made any other offers so far, so I would definitely not be worried about not having heard back yet. Good luck to everyone who applied there! Hi @Nat_Foot, it looks like someone finally claimed the Brown admission (quote above), and since we haven't heard anything else from the department, I think it's pretty safe to assume that they haven't sent out regular acceptances yet. With this in mind, I don't know that I would rush inordinately to get in touch with them... It will have to be any day now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dialectica Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I'd like to hear from Virginia. It seems (though I could be missing something) that they've only admitted those nominated for fellowships, and then waitlisted a good handful. But I'm wondering if they've already sent out acceptances to those who have not been nominated for fellowships. If anyone has any information regarding this, I would greatly appreciate hearing from you. Or, of course, @Nat_Foot could contact them, which I would not object to at all.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, so I apologize, but I was accepted to UVA with the standard funding package -- no special fellowship. Perhaps they haven't made all their offers yet, though!
