bobilu87 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I think the interviewing process might just for certain international students to verify their language proficiency. So don't be panic if you don't get one. Are we expecting the results coming out this week or maybe next week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbobear Posted March 8, 2017 Author Share Posted March 8, 2017 @bobilu87 I thought the MHCID results would be out this week or next week, but given the new information about interviews we've just got, I think it will probably be later. Kinda got my hopes up because the email notifying us of the Visitor's days said "mid to late March" and last year the MHCID results came out on the 14th. HCDE results, however, should come out on the 15th or before, according to the HCDE website (they specifically say they'll notify you by the 15th).

sqa Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) For HCDE, I think that in past years decisions came out in early March, prior to the 15th (I think last year was the 9th, and some rejections were even earlier, in late Feb). So I'm essentially in constant freakout mode Edited March 8, 2017 by sqa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anxiously waiting for the results. I know many other UW departments have sent out their final decisions, so I'm kinda guessing it should be these couple of days. 4 minutes ago, sqa said: For HCDE, I think that in past years decisions came out in early March, prior to the 15th (I think last year was the 9th, and some rejections were even earlier).

bobilu87 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 @sqaYes, but might only for some international students who have low language scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqa Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 @bobilu87 As a semi-international student, I guess I'm glad I haven't heard back yet! Do you mind if I ask how you know about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobilu87 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 @sqaI know someone already got one rej. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbobear Posted March 8, 2017 Author Share Posted March 8, 2017 Pretty sure in these cases, these are automatic rejections based on failing to meet the stated, required minimum scores on the TOEFL. If someone applies without meeting the minimum TOEFL, they will get rejected without having their application go through the standard review process (where 2 ad com members read it, etc).

Yes, I think so too. Do you happen to know the percentage of people on the waitlist? I have a feeling that they might put me on the waitlist.

bbobear Posted March 8, 2017 Author Share Posted March 8, 2017 @bobilu87 I looked around and I can't find any information about % of candidates on the waitlist. It can't be that many considering that they admit more students than the program would fit, with the anticipation that a lot of accepted students will not attend.

sqa Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) @bobilu87 No data on waitlisted individuals -- they're probably lumped in with offers/rejections https://grad.uw.edu/about-the-graduate-school/statistics-and-reports/admissions-statistics/ Edited March 8, 2017 by sqa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sqa Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 @bobilu87 No worries! I only applied to one program, HCDE, so that's why I'm extra nervous about it! What about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobilu87 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 @sqaI applied both HCDE and MHCID, but didn't submit a portfolio for HCID. So I'm pretty much only counting on HCDE. I get a heart attack every time open my email, soooo nervous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqa Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 @bobilu87 Aw I feel your pain! It's so stressful when there's so much riding on one decision. I'm actually going to be in the HCDE department later today (for something else), so there goes my plan of trying to distract myself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobilu87 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 @sqa Nice. Go ask them when do they plan to stop our pain lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqa Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) @bobilu87 I should! A few years ago, there was actually a situation where I accidentally overheard part of a grad admissions committee meeting for a program I was applying to... Oh gosh, and I'm sitting in a building on campus, and just happened to look to the left, into a room with the words "Admissions Updates" on a slideshow. There's seriously no escaping this... Also, don't give up on MHCID! If it's anything like HCDE, the portfolio is totally optional -- so fingers crossed!
