I called Brown and they said that only some of the acceptances had been sent out, and the rest will most likely be coming later today.  I read on one of the forums that the most recent rejection was from somebody who saw all the acceptance and assumed they'd been rejected.

I'm in the same position. Hoping it just means they haven't gotten to everyone yet.

Cool cool, well hopefully we will all be hearing good news!

Congrats!!!  How did you find out??

Grad director sent an e-mail.

I just received an email stating that I waitlisted at Penn State. I had that one pegged as “in the abyss.”

[shuckleberries]

To the CUNY acceptance: 

Congratulations! I understand your acceptance came way by unofficial email. Do you mind sharing details? Was the email from a professor/admissions chair?

Thank you!

Congrats!! So excited for you! My mentor went to Miami and absolutely loved it there (his only gripe was Oxford itself). I'm still waiting for my Miami portal to update!  

good luck! Also mine updated *exactly* at 48 hrs, no sooner or later

Anyone else heard from absolutely no schools so far? Just drumming my fingers over here  Patience is a virtue, I know, I know. It's teaching this over thinker a lesson, that's for sure.

The meaning of 'later today' is really going to haunt me until I go to sleep.

Thanks @M(allthevowels)H and @punctilious!
 

Why am I always out of reactions? There's so much exciting news on this board today! I love it! Y'all are such talented humans.

Lol same. I haven't mentioned @Elise Martorano's info to my husband, lest he get his hopes up. Perhaps he already read it, though--he lurks sometimes...

Good to know, thank you! ...I actually think I received the email exactly 24 hours after you... This is too much precision for me to handle!

I haven't been watching this thread super closely--have you been accepted to other programs yet?

I too would LOVE to have some more info on this.. I'm telling myself not to worry yet and that it is probably just an outlier email from a POI and that the mass email of acceptances will probably go out tomorrow. I'm assuming there would be WAY more acceptances on the results page if CUNY did all of their acceptances (unofficial or not) today. Keeping hope alive that I will get a valentine from CUNY tomorrow 

[WildeThing]

Is the CUNY result legit? Since it said City College I was wondering whether someone made a mistake or whether it was a different program somehow.

Also, given the time of day, I'm assuming that there are no more Brown acceptances. Then again, there were phone calls over the weekend so who fucking knows how any of this works.

[LeeLeeCzechIrish]

Dumb question but is there a certain time of day when emails from schools go out? Is it only during business hours? Can I shut down my addiction to GC, email, portals from 5pm until 9 am? Seems like a reasonable thing to ask??!!

GOT INTO UCSB!!!!!! I had completely given up!

Hi! Sorry for the late response and the stress! It was me (submitting it for a friend). It was definitely a personalized acceptance so I imagine results will officially be coming out soon!
