Sorry to hear about that. I just saw those Yale rejections on the results board. Wish they'd send me something already! I still haven't heard, and I want to move on with my life *claws eyes out a lil bit*

The last place I'm waiting to hear back from Boston University's American Studies program. The end is finally near. Thank god I'm also still waiting on BU. I only applied to four programs (!!) so I'm now very anxious to hear back so I can make a plan... Any idea when BU send their notifications out? Fingers crossed for us both!
foodnerd Posted February 23, 2017 Posted February 23, 2017 Saw the GWU rejections on the results board. Don't know what to make of not having one in my inbox. Would they send rejections in batches?
ch2306 Posted February 23, 2017 Posted February 23, 2017 Called Rutgers about their AMS program today and was told that it'll "take time" for decisions to be sent out as they just started looking at applications

I didn't get in but they wanted me to apply to their masters program. I was like hmm I guess thats better than nothing lol.
Armchair_Phil Posted February 23, 2017 Posted February 23, 2017 Got an Acceptance from BGSU for their MA in Popular Culture but was waitlisted for funding. Has anyone dealt with being waitlisted for funding? Also, did anyone apply to Claremont Graduate University for Cultural Studies?

Based on prior years its late Feb and early to mid march. They also tend to call folks. I wonder if we could bribe someone to call them and ask lol. towonderland72 1

Ah yep I'm the same. I think I'll bump over my app to the masters program just for another option. Weird that they wouldn't send out emails for that though.

They haven't met yet to make the final decisions. Supposedly they're planning to meet in the next week or two. They were the last school I heard from - best of luck with the waiting!

PetiteFilleNoire Posted February 28, 2017 Posted February 28, 2017 Official NYU rejections came out this morning. Now, I'm just waiting on the rejection from Yale.
kekology4 Posted February 28, 2017 Posted February 28, 2017 Just got the NYU rejection! NYU who? That's all of american studies for me. I knew it wasn't as good a fit as gender studies, but I thought it might be more safe job-wise. This was quite the application season! Best of luck to everyone who is still waiting to hear.
heyDW Posted February 28, 2017 Posted February 28, 2017 Received an admittance without funding from BGSU.
foodnerd Posted February 28, 2017 Posted February 28, 2017 Has anyone gotten the rejects from UT? I saw some admits/waitlists go up on the results page in January and earlier this month, but haven't seen rejects. Do they send them that much later???

Also waiting on the rejection from Yale. Any idea what's taking them so long, since they already sent a round out? I mean... I assume we'd know if we were on a waitlist?

PetiteFilleNoire Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 (edited) Finally received the official rejection from Yale! My admissions cycle is over!! Now, I'm just deciding between UMD American Studies PhD and UCLA African-American Studies MA. I will be visiting Maryland this weekend! Edited March 3, 2017 by PetiteFilleNoire
