No notifications for anything. Either they haven't sent anything out or I was rejected... It seems like this is just some more creative trolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guest56436 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 It's probably too late in the night for east coast schools to send out acceptances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ugurcanevci Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Well Columbia is probably a troll, but after today I don't expect it to be a positive result for me. I have 4 lower tier applications, so, I'm still gonna stay positive. Congrats to all those admitted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deactivatedaccount Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I have a question about the time zone on the results page--a number of times I've noticed a significant number of people posting on what appears to be "tomorrow"--for example, I already see a lot of February 1st acceptances. This is not necessarily only in reference to the "Date Added," which makes sense, but mostly the "Decision Date," which from what I understand should reflect the date on which the acceptance occurred. I'm already in the Pacific time zone, so I'm used to adding three hours at times to convert to Eastern, but even then it doesn't make sense for example, it is still only 10:15 currently.) Moreover, why are people getting acceptances so early in the morning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you consider the times in Europe, Middle East, and Asia, it is already a day later there. boruchan93 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevTheory1126 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Wow! Congrats to all the Berkeley folks.  On the real though: If I get an acceptance, I'm going to put something really polite and excited on here, but in real life, I'm going to be cussing and hollerin' something fierce... just FYI. @hyacinthus I was thinking those folks might be international...? But now that you mention the decision date... Maybe it's just an oversight by the inputting user? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good points, I was confused because they were always posted late in the day here, so it seemed like schools were sending out late night acceptances, but I guess also taking into account international time zones it makes sense that students in further time zones would be sleeping when acceptances were sent out, and then wake up to them when it's late here.

It's user input oversight. I've noticed the dates a day ahead when I have entered in my own results. I'm not sure when the system ticks over on its own, but I imagine people aren't paying as much attention to the changeable date.  Just my own two cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curvilineardisparity Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I'm claiming one of the positive results from Pittsburgh. GRE and undergrad GPA were not high but I guess that some experience, two MAs, publications and a period lecturing helped in the end.
