Waiting on Michigan (though thinking rejection or waitlist now), UPenn, Columbia and Boston. It's a shame that people don't post more information at times. Scores? Subfield? Publications? Teaching experience? MA degree? Favorite color? (Fine, the last one may not be relevant.)

Pink! ...no blue! Aaaaahhh... Upon seeing that Penn acceptance, the Gorge of Eternal Peril is looking pretty enticing right about now... positivitize 1

Rest assured if that phone call comes in I will post my results with as much info as possible, including potentially annoying habits I might have as a roommate, favorite color, favorite way to spend a Sunday, etc. anxiousphd 1

Let's wait it out till the end of the day! I found that curious indeed. I've also seen it happen with other schools that people were previously discussing.

Let's wait it out till the end of the day! A bunch of years ago I wrote a villanelle that begins with the lines: How often I have sat alone And waited for the phone to ring, But only heard the dial tone. It's feeling awfully prophetic right about now... jackdacjson 1

I've also seen it happen with other schools that people were previously discussing. Most suspicious. It's also been the pattern that these schools (Princeton, Yale, and Rutgers all in the past week) call shortly after the close of the business day. That makes sense - most people work.

orphic_mel528 Posted February 20, 2017 Posted February 20, 2017 I see we've skipped the entertaining hallucinations phase and gone directly into the paranoid conspiracy phase of the season, which I feel is a mistake, as I really wanted to see Bing-Bong again. DankOcean and FeetInTheSky 2
