Snygard Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 I'm doing the NYU interview this Friday too! I really don't know what to expect...anyone have any ideas. I am brushing up on interview questions, but do not have a clue if I am even doing the right thing. Also waiting on the TC decisions...does this mean the decisions are all going out on the 15th, or is it possible that it will be before? Ah, the waiting game!

Thanks, and good luck! I also applied to CSU Fullerton, no word yet. There is an online status check though, but it has not been updated with a decision. At least there is something besides email to obsess over! I applied to these schools with no word yet: U Nevada Reno U Louisiana Monroe U Louisiana Lafayette Montevallo U Bloomsburg U (Cal State Fullerton, like I mentioned) Good luck to all. I hope our decisions acceptances come SOON! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remixed486 Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Hey everyone! I just got back from Northwestern's recruitment/interview weekend for their PhD program in CSD, and to all those accepted to their SLP masters program: you're going to love it there! I really have no basis of comparison since I haven't visited any other CSD departments, but the faculty and staff all seemed super nice and their facilities are definitely state-of-the-art. Looks like masters students get their own little lounge area to study (complete with an adjacent kitchen, haha). Lots of opportunities to participate in research there, too.

remixed486 Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Oh, and to anyone going to the NYU interview this Friday, a fellow forum member posted this in another thread: http://forum.thegradcafe.com/index.php?app=forums&module=forums§ion=findpost&pid=126657 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khamylak Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 I got home to 2 letters in the mailbox... one was a rejection (ouch) and the other was wait listing. It did say "If a student(s) declines you will be offered a spot"... reading into it and making it seem more like only 1 person has to decline, GOOD ODDS for me! Rejected from U Louisiana Lafayette, Wait listed at Bloomsburg U. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktm244 Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Hey I was wondering if we may be able to post stats and then acceptances/rejections so the rest of us can know our odds too? I'm in my senior year at a top tier school (not an Ivy) -3.53 GPA in last 2 years. 3.8 overall. (I transferred schools and did poorly my first year as a transfer) -Ling/Psych major who specialized in Neuroscience..non SLP may hurt my chances -no published materials but have been working as an RA for about a year. -I'm a live-in employee for students with developmental disabilites (I also happen to specialize in language issues of the developmentally disabled) -paltry..beyond abismal GRE score -have been teaching and substitute teaching in Special Education classrooms for about 3 years now applied to: NYU TC Columbia San Diego State University Gallaudet UT Austin Got an interview with NYU but cannot go, so we're currently trying to schedule a phone interview. Have heard nothing from anyone else. It's beyond stressful. good luck all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
res2135 Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 I finally called BU. Waitlisted. That's 3 for 3 right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khamylak Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 When is the wait long enough to call without being annoying? My top choice's deadline was Feb. 1. Can I call yet?! I heard back from schools with deadlines in late February already... where are you top choice acceptance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remixed486 Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 well, i decided that if i come home tonight and there isn't a letter from BU waiting for me, then they will most definitely receive a phone call from me tomorrow. hmph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
res2135 Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 remixed, I had to call them too. They said my letter should be there by now or within the next day or two, so even if you don't call, it should be there soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remixed486 Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 res, i couldn't wait and called them this morning. i got my first acceptance! (into their MS/PhD program). they told me they mailed my envelope on friday 3/5, so i guess it should be here any day now. yay! btw res, hasn't emerson started notifying their applicants? have you heard anything from them yet?

res2135 Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Congrats remixed! And yeah, Emerson has definitely been notifying people for a month now. I called yesterday and they said they should be finished with decisions "in the next two weeks." I got the feeling they weren't going to be sending anyone anything for at least two weeks though, which doesn't really leave anyone much time. "Luckily" for me it won't matter anyway since I have yet to be actually accepted anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khamylak Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Bamagirl- Have you been brave enough to call Montevallo yet and see when they plan to send out letters? I'm way too passive to call anyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ardvark123 Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 University of Illinois-admitted, waiting on funding info. Not expecting anything. This is probably my top choice. Indiana University-admitted, on waitlist for funding. Also a top choice. University of Wisconsin, Madison-waitlisted, removed myself yesterday from it University of Washington-rejected, not surprised. Washington State University-accepted, definitely not going there. It's more expensive than IU for out of staters and ranked lower. Illinois State-randomly checked website. Admitted. Not sure when we hear about funding though, I guess they're all on Spring Break this week. Northern Illinois-waiting to hear back, I'm assuming I'll be admitted. Emerson College-waiting to hear back, it's doubtful I'll be admitted. Portland State-waiting to hear back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chemdoc Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 (edited) Any future speech and lang pathologists out there? What schools have you heard from? What schools are you still waiting to hear from? I've applied to: Northwestern University Rush University Northern Illinois University Still waiting to hear from all of them... Good luck to everyone! I'm at NIU right now. Stay away, very far away. They screw students on funding so bad. Tuition waiver doesn't include fees, fee's are approximately 1/3rd of your school costs. Most graduate students here in my dept are not happy to be here at all. They are bitter and take it out on the undergraduates.

lilg1988 Posted March 10, 2010 Author Share Posted March 10, 2010 Anybody hear from Teachers College? The waiting is killing me! Ok so I didn't apply to the teachers college, but do you mean the teachers college of columbia university? If so, I saw that someone posted this on the results page... To the other people anxiously waiting to hear from the Spe-Path Language program. I spoke to the department and they are still going over applications...she said because Spring Break is next week...they will probably be getting decisions down to admissions the week of the 23rd.....ARGH!!!!! Hope that helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acceptances: Purdue, University of Georgia, University of Alabama Interviews: NYU, University of Tennessee, Georgia State University Rejections: Vanderbilt, UNC-Chapel Hill Still waiting for: Emerson, TC Columbia, University of Florida, Auburn University, University of South Alabama, Montevallo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby137 Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Did other people use the CSDCAS? What did you all think? At first I thought it was kind of a pain having a middle man, but now I am thinking that it helped me in the long run. They calculated like 10 different GPA's for me. My undergrad was in Business and my GPA was a 3.57 (Darn Accounting and Finance Courses ) But with the CSDCAS, they separated out my post-baccalaureate GPA, Comm Sci GPA, Behav. Sci, etc., which were all a lot higher. I'm just wondering b/c I find it interesting that I have been accepted to all the schools I applied to using the CSDCAS and was rejected from the two (one lower ranked) that I didn't use the CSDCAS for. Anyone experience a similar situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
res2135 Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I used CSDCAS to apply to BU and I hated it. It took them forever to do anything and they kept messing things up. I had requested they send my app to BU on 1/1. They finally sent it on 2/24. I can't help but think this might have been why I was WL at BU. When I called BU to get my result and told the secretary my name she said "oh yeah, I remember you, your application was really late, right?" Of course BU claims that had no effect on its decision.
