Hi all!

I've been accepted to two programs so far: Kansas State and West Virginia University. I know these aren't exactly top ranking programs (although, truthfully, I applied to a lot of lower ranking programs since I only have a ~3.7 UG GPA from a UK uni), but I haven't heard much about them on the forums. Anyone else applied to either MA program?

Congrats on Johns Hopkins, y'all! That's great news!

I just got wait listed at Rochester via email. Which like. Is also okay news, although given that this is my second wait list in a row I'm starting to feel like everyone's second choice. Oh well.

Adding myself to the Hopkins admits!! I feel like I'm losing my mind a little bit right now. @Sunsy and @piers_plowman, it will be great to meet you two :)

Congratulations!! I very much hope you both attend the visiting weekend so we can reconvene our GC forum there. It would be cathartic after all this anxious hand-wringing.

Yes! I intend to attend (lol) and it'll be great to have a little GC moment. Super thrilling!

I'm curious if the person who posted about UT - Knoxville meant to post for UT - Austin. I'm waiting for the University of Tennessee and my heart jumped a bit; it also seems a bit early for Knoxville.

Guyyyyys where's my UT Austin email?? Is anyone else still waiting to hear?? 

FWIW, in the past UT has done acceptances/rejections in waves, so not everyone hears right away. I don't know how they're doing it this year, but I wouldn't consider the admission decisions closed yet.

If anyone has questions about UT grad life, I'm happy to answer them!

I meant Tennessee, so I put that down. Just checked today and got rejected.

Ahh thank you! I was approaching full panic mode.

I really thought this week was officially the calm before the storm. Late night Friday acceptances have proven otherwise! Congrats to everyone that received good news today :)

Oh, okay! Sorry about that, thank you for clarifying! No offense intended.

Not a problem; rejection just sucks. Hope you have better luck!

Congrats everyone who got in somewhere on Friday!! What a great way to end the week!

 

I'm curious about other Notre Dame applicants -- I saw that a ton of rejections went up yesterday (sorry to all of those people). I haven't heard anything yet, and my application status is still just "submitted," but I also wasn't invited to an interview or anything. Anyone else is the same boat? Frustrating since now it's the weekend and we likely won't hear anything until next week :'(
