This was probably not the best week for me to dramatically reduce my sugar intake... I’ve turned into a cranky, anxious mess. 

Yikes! I'm sending you strength for your sugarless times!

Right there with you. Also... is this the Boas you can see?

Yes exactly just like that. He perches on my desk and suggests I get out of my armchair for best results for whatever reason...

Right there with you, only my subfield is archaeology. I'm hoping "The Wait" gets over soon so I can know if I need a plan B. I'm at 4 rejections and one waitlist with only 3 more options to hear from.  It never occurred to me that I might not be accepted into any program....sigh.

Cool! Congrats!  I'm in general antho PhD program (I specialize in ancient DNA).  Guess I'll be meeting you in August!

[anthrosalts]

Anyone heard from NYU yet? Apart from the two rejections from their POI. Has there been any form of interview requests sent out? 

[MJF]

A couple people said they got accepted to to UT Knoxville, but my application says it is still in review. Starting to pull my hair out!!!!

I haven't heard from them, I think they're still reviewing apps. at least that is what a friend of mine said who's in the program.

Mine says that too! Where did you see people saying they’d been accepted? Do you know what subfield?

Search anthropology in the results search, that is where I saw them. Neither of them stated their subfield. One MA student one PhD. My subfield is biological.

Same here. Do they even have anything separate from bio? I thought that was basically their only subfield

I don’t know how popular they are, but I know you had to select your sub field in the app, so I assume they get at least some apps for other subfields?

They have multiple fields: archaeology, biological anthropology, cultural anthropology, Mediterranean archaeology, and zooarchaeology. I'm just hopeful that bio just hasn't made a decision yet. Some of them might be at the AAFS meeting right now anyway.

Meant to say AAFS, not AAPA!

I'm sure they know, they were in our shoes at one point! I'm hopeful that we will find out by Monday once everyone returns from AAFS.

Anyone apply to Chico State? I wonder how long it will be before I hear from them... 

[Indiana_Bones]

I'm trying my best to sit on my hands and -not- call anywhere for updates, but... I'm so tempted. Especially for the places that have their graduate school review AFTER the department has forwarded them their choices. Somehow calling the graduate school feels less intrusive than calling the department...

[scarseed]

Does anyone know how many sociocultural folks were accepted at Columbia? I've seen a few results posted here but wonder if someone caught word of an actual number from the dept.
