Just wanted to confirm that we are being recruited for a phonathon to congratulate accepted students on March 7th @ 5:30 pm. I think it's safe to say that y'all can expect admission decisions before then! thanks graciasadios! It's so reassuring to hear that we are going to find out soon!
Vulpix Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 (edited) You find out online first (presumably Friday) and then a student in your program will call you on the 7th . Last year we found out on March 4th which was also the first Friday. ALSO, because I know y'all will be going crazy---last year I did not get the email notifying me to check my decision until 5:47 PM EST. (Which is after the normal work day). I don't remember if it was available online slightly earlier (before the email was sent out), but it may have been. I think I blacked out that day and don't really remember it Edited March 1, 2017 by Vulpix

goldenangel1 Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 (edited) You guys, I checked the online portal and it shows a receipt of a final copy of the application. Does it show anything else besides that on your online portal when you log on? Like just that the check boxes and application fee paid and a final copy of application right? Is that the same place we log on to find out our status on Friday? Edited March 2, 2017 by goldenangel1

I believe, like @vulpix mentioned, we'll receive an email along with the decision being made available online.

So I guess Friday after 5pm, we will know the final result of our admissions status then. Good luck everyone!
Gradhope1 Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 Agh! Can someone screenshot it for me? I see application proof, just want to make sure I'm seeing what you guys are. Anxiety is mounting! Good luck all!

Haven't heard anything from Stanford and I guess it's a rejection there. I really hope HGSE releases results for everyone at the same to avoid this kind of anxiety which is really awful!
goldenangel1 Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 You guys, I just got off the phone with admissions office. The person I spoke with said to be on the look out for an email from HGSE that will direct me to the portal with a decision. She didn't say when, but she just said in March. haha.
mg91 Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 How are you guys handling the anxiety? I have been so nauseous this week and can barely eat. Any tips for getting through the waiting and going about your day?

Any tips for getting through the waiting and going about your day? Well, I can tell you that refreshing this page and your email constantly does NOT help :\. But just like @pj060690, binging Netflix helps! Maybe try handing your phone over to someone for a bit ? Might help with the anxiety. And deep, calming breaths :). We're almost there. mg91 1

When you're running around (literally), your brain doesn't have a chance to think about other things
Vulpix Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 I can't believe it's been a year since I was accepted. It goes UNBELIEVABLY FAST. Well, I'd say the spring/summer waiting to start goes slowly, but then this academic 9-month whirlwind... yikes. I can't believe by the time we got comfortable here we are applying for jobs and preparing to graduate. It's really a fast program. mjsmith 1

I'm glad this is what everyone else is seeing as well, phew! A few more hour left!! I'm firmly in freak out mode, my stomach feels like its eating itself inside out. I can't put the anxiety into words!

pj060690 Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 Oh man! This is tough. Good luck everyone ☺ Not going to get any sleep tonight (based in India)
Ed_Cog Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 Were results posted at 5 pm EST last year or earlier (or god forbid later)?

No better excuse to be up all night and binge watch the shows/movies that I have been putting off for a while now
