I'm not sure if I can take off work, since I'm already taking off for Berkeley I think I am! I want to see what the school’s like, and if I get into Columbia, their day is on the 8th and I’d already be conveniently in New York!
madamoiselle Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 @Saltshaker Sounds so awesome! I may reach out to you with a PM if I can't make it, and if I can, I'll make sure to let you know -- maybe we can grab a coffee or something! Best of luck at Columbia, sounds like you really did well on the interview

madamoiselle Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 (edited) @AL95 that's awesome, I hope you have a great time! Looks like somebody got into the masters program at IU Bloomington! Congrats if you're here I'm not applying to the program personally, but it seems like y'alls decision should be coming out relatively soon! Edited January 30, 2018 by madamoiselle
frenchlover Posted January 30, 2018 Author Posted January 30, 2018 My professor's husband taught a course called "Waiting" at Brown. I want to make a link between absurdist waiting and this application process, but I don't quite know what it is. lol
Carly Rae Jepsen Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 Congrats on your Cornell acceptance @madamoiselle and @Saltshaker ! Excited about IU Bloomington, too. It was the first app I submitted back in October, so the wait feels eternal for that one for me.

Lol, I should clarify: this professor at my college has a husband who is a tenured professor at Brown. Edited January 30, 2018 by frenchlover
Yanaka Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 Congratulations on the last acceptances, waitlists, and interviews and open houses! I'm sure the open houses are just an excuse to interview you and see if they officially like you... Sinon what's the point? I should stop hanging out on grad café, it's making the waiting so much worse! I was excited but relaxed, and now seeing all the results here I'm getting very impatient!

Grabbing a coffee together would be lovely, and if you can’t make it, I’m willing to ask some questions or take notes for you! And thanks, I’m so nervous and just want a response at this point :/
