punctilious Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Husband was waitlisted at Maryland! Not exactly the result we were hoping for, but still promising as it says he is at "the very top of the wait list for admission that [they] anticipate being able to make in [his] field." Here's hoping that the accepted individual has better offers! JustPoesieAlong, TeaOverCoffee, clinamen and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are waiting on BC (although with little expectations). Thank you, and thank you EVERYONE (I would tag you all but I'm rushing out the door!)!! I was emailed by the DGS at 8:30 am (west coast). She asked for the best time to follow up with a phone call, she mentioned setting up a visit etc. SO THRILLED !! Edit: Congrats on the Maryland waitlist!!!

Dogfish Head Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) I think it is fair to assume at this point that I have been rejected from PSU and Maryland despite hearing nothing from either. They were both reaches so I am not too surprised. I still have 6 other programs to hear from so hopefully I won't strike out completely. Sincerest congratulations to all those who were accepted, though! Edited January 31, 2018 by Dogfish Head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May the accepted individual go elsewhere, or win the lottery/get a large inheritance and decide academia is for the birds anyway. 2 hours ago, Mellowyellow said: Got into Chicago!!! So excited!
