resDQ Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Which is worse: Acceptance troll or Rejection troll? Berkeley rejection post true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go with acceptance because it gets my claustrophobia going, but rejection could just as easily stoke my "oh no, not me too" feelings....

advark Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 does anyone know what's been going on for Berkeley (as in, had any communications with an official source)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guest56436 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Berkeley is one of those programs that is pretty much clockwork every year they send out acceptances at the same time around the first week of February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkid86 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Got my first rejection of the cycle from GWU. Stings, but I'm not heartbroken. Checked on the website. Generic rejection template. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing keeping me from checking each application 5x a day is the thought that I would get an email saying something had changed.

krapp Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Thanks, I'll start keeping an eye on it. It looks like most programs I've applied to typically start around the beginning of February, I guess GWU just likes to be ahead of the curve.
