As far as I know IR people have gotten cut, but theres no indication of other sub-fields. I am an Americanist, so I am trying to figure out what this all means. Did the IR pile get sorted through first, or are they down to a smaller cut of people? I thought these schools send their decisions together... It's useless to ponder these things...either you get an acceptance email or you don't. vitaminquartet 1

From the results page, it could potentially mean that acceptances will be out tomorrow (or soonish) and all UCSD decisions will be out or a 2014 cycle patten will be followed (rejections sent, then acceptances, then more rejections).

dagnabbit Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Also received the rejection e-mail from UCSD, and I'm in IR as well which supports @jge's hypothesis.
jamesdilla Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 only 2/15 UCSD rejections claimed. anyone else?
Shirtless Putin's Horse Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Claiming UCSD rejection. My hopes for warmer weather are sinking. jazzmintea, Mike_Novick, BillyJoel182 and 4 others 7
VMcJ Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 The latest UCSD rejection in the results board is mine.
Gik Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Got an email from UCSD telling me to check my application status on their website, but it still indicates Under Review as my status. I'm confused. Maybe I should email them?

Mine still says "Under review", but when I go to the Messages section there is one message from them informing my rejection.
cellec Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 One of the UCSDs is mine! American field (just to give y'all some more information to pour over) Good luck to those still in the hunt! RevTheory1126 1

I had to use my computer for that. Anyway, I was rejected (and told to apply for their Master of International Affairs program, though I guess that might be just a standard answer). I was expecting this, but it still stings :/
GradNYC Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Sorry folks! hopefully good news come our way this week.
Monody Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Is there any time during the day during which responses can be expected?
resDQ Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 are UCSD rejections still rolling out or people just posting them as they wake up?

Monody Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 How should I feel when I get to know that another group of scholars has nearly completed a dataset on which Ive been working on for the last 4 weeks? Should I be cheerful that I got to know it before I spend another 60 hours on it or should I feel as sad as I am now? I hope that I do not get a rejection today as well. Bad signs...
Kenga Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 To everybody who got rejected from UCSD: stay strong, the cycle is still long and you'll get a good program to go to. 12 minutes ago, Monody said: How should I feel when I get to know that another group of scholars has nearly completed a dataset on which Ive been working on for the last 4 weeks?

You should be happy that you don't have to do the work. And angry (if you planned to publish it) that they took "your" dataset idea. Look on the bright side, you can run the regressions now and don't have to build the dataset.

Now Ive to wait for them.

After that: get a headstart and work on the paper for which you created (wanted to create) the dataset. Lastly, email those people to get access to their dataset already and publish your paper.
