Same, especially with the change of deadline and DGS. I'm debating having my husband call and ask about a timeline. I know it's probably a bit irritating for them, but they are one of our top choices and we'd like to figure things out sooner rather than later if we have to make plans to travel to Boston.
hibiscus Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 How about Boston college? Did that go out.

I know that @clinamen received an acceptance and we were waitlisted at BC. Our waitlist notification was just over a week ago. We posted to the survey but for some reason it doesn't show up for me when I search, so I'm not sure if something is broken with that this year. hibiscus 1

Some programs don't always send out all offers (including acceptances and waitlists) at the same time though. Edited February 19, 2018 by Warelin hibiscus 1

Someone in an acceptance thread said that UCR was waiting to hear back on their budget before sending out wider acceptances, so I assume until they hear back we won't be hearing head nor tail of acceptances or rejections... which means we'll probably be hearing back at the end of this week, seeing as tomorrow is a holiday. That actually makes me feel better. But, like, dang...California (or whoever is in charge)...why don't you have these budgets already set up? No love for the liberal arts.
LexHex Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 Oh and for UCR people, I know their graduate services advisor is taking the day off -- so I'm assuming UCR observes today. Do all UCs?
chellyfish_ Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 (edited) @LexHex @toxicmoss and anyone else looking for info in Riverside! It does sound like they're trying to figure out finances, but it also sounds like things should be more formalized in the next week. DGS told me that they're accepting a cohort of 15 people, with emphasis on pre-19th Century Lit (by this I mean all fields pre-19th), Indigenous Lit Studies, and Latinx Lit. (Things have been pretty silent this weekend all around so I think most places are observing the holiday! I'm currently at a UC and they're closed today) Edited February 19, 2018 by chellyfish_ toxicmoss, LexHex, Mise and 1 other 2 2
chellyfish_ Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 Also, is anyone on here the person on the Results page who contacted UBC? If so, might you have any deets on when formal results go out? I'm tempted to ask them myself too but my desire not to be a bother is winning out! LexHex 1

Warelin Posted February 19, 2018 Author Posted February 19, 2018 It looks like UVA has begun to notify.
Hermenewtics Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 Based on previous years it seems like UVA takes about 2 days to send out acceptances, so tomorrow and Wednesday are probably it.
punctilious Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 Good luck to all the Virginia applicants!!! It was another day of nothing for us. But we saw Black Panther which was great!
kem2486 Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 20 hours ago, Warelin said: I think Kentucky will most likely be next week given past results. Purdue is known to do "rolling acceptances" so some may hear back much sooner than others. Indiana sent out acceptances and waitlists to their MA/PHD program a few weeks ago. I think UVA, Boston University, Iowa, Tufts, Harvard, Tennessee and Lehigh have a good chance of releasing decisions this week based on previous trends! Do you know if Indiana notified for both Rhetoric and Comp AND lit or if it was just rhetoric? It is my first choice, I am waiting very impatiently, lol! I'm holding onto one last shred of hope before emailing to check my status as I have heard nothing.

Mellowyellow Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 (edited) there's a 2nd yale listed on the survey! What does it mean for the first one i wonder Edited February 20, 2018 by Mellowyellow
punctilious Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Yale result on the board--let's see if it has actually begun this time!

Anything posted after 7pm ET shows up as the following day because I think the results board is on GMT. But yes I also hope that it means that the results will actually come tomorrow so I just relax tonight! Edited February 20, 2018 by punctilious

la_mod Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Columbia is killing me. Last one I’m waiting on that would be a contender still. At this point I want the rejection so I can start making life plans, etc hibiscus 1
automatic Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Do we think there's any chance UVA still has people left to notify (positively)?
