CoyoteBlue Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I'm kinda super bummed out right now, I called UO in January and asked about my status(waitlist). They said I'd have a for sure yes or no answer by the end of Jan. Well Jan has some and gone and I have other offers. I had two undergrad friends who applied there because they thought I was a sure-in. They got in, I didn't. I had a departmental recommendation from their biology faculty. I visited multiple times, I had grad students take me out to coffee and talk about the program. It all looked great. I don't understand what happened. So, I have great other offers with great funding and all sorts of cool benefits including international travel and specialized training. So sie la vie UO. I don't know what I did wrong. God this feels like a breakup letter "Dear John" tnt92 and guanyinmiao 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somebloke Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Jeeeeeez, this sounds utterly bizarre and heartbreaking. I'm sorry to hear this. It's just bad luck sometimes, I guess. That said, the fact that other programmes are willing to invest so much in you says a lot about your strengths. You'll do well regardless of where you are. All the best!
