Georgetown I have no idea. And come on Northwestern. I know it's it's rejection, you know it's a rejection...Just send me the email and let's get this over with! I received an interview request from CUNY yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When is the visiting weekend, by the way? Â Maybe that will shed some light on when we can all expect to hear by. Â Thanks! Got accepted to Yale for AP. Visiting weekend is April 4-6.

ralphwiththeconch Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 This Yale news is preparing me to be very sad... Do any of you guys know about waitlists? I got waitlisted at one of my top choices and the portal says I'll get a letter in the mail for me to respond to if I want to stay on the waitlist, but it's been a week and no letter yet. I'm usually not a very patient person, and this process is really making me realize this even more.

The0ry Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 I called Brown just now since I still haven't received a response 10 days after everyone else has. They told me I was on the "unofficial waitlist" so they couldn't notify me, but they are glad I called to inquire. The department administrator said it is a "very short waitlist" (I presume 2-3 names), so there is hopefully a decent chance I get in. To anyone who got into Brown but will not be attending, please let them know earlier rather than later. I would really appreciate it. Thank you!

ralphwiththeconch Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 (edited) @The0ry ah ok, mine was a notification that I have been "offered a place on the program waiting list" so I'm guessing it is an official waiting list. I just need the paper letter, but I'll probably call if I don't see it after the end of this week. And if only they left off the "waiting list" part... Good luck with Brown!! Edited February 23, 2017 by ralphwiththeconch The0ry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrengthandHonor Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 (edited) I just called two departments and asked about their process. Northwestern says that the adcom is not finished yet. They've sent out some rejections and some acceptances, but they are still finalizing their list. I was told that we could expect that process to be finished within a week. So for everyone who hasn't heard either way, there is still hope. University of Virginia: The department says that they have sent out their acceptances and their rejections, and that if you have not heard either way, you are on the waitlist. *EDIT* also, UVA didn't say how many students were on the waitlist.

ralphwiththeconch Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Can I just say thank you to all the folks who are making calls to the departments and then updating us?

changeisgood Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 I suspect that I might be on a couple of "unofficial wait lists", but nothing solid. Â It would help if they'd notify me! *argh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralphwiththeconch Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 @HermioneWannabe It's awesome you have an acceptance that you're happy with! I saw earlier that you're thinking of going to Columbia - I worked there for a summer with poli sci profs, and it was great. It's a beautiful place to study. And yes, an answer is better than radio silence, for sure. I'm just really really hoping that I get off one of my waitlists, both are at my dream schools.
