<p>Please use this thread to list stats, interviews, and results for Fall 2012 admissions. Please limit your posts to this topic to keep the results more accessible for this year's and future applicants. Good luck!</p>
<p>HAHA. Maybe I should apply to a humanities program. 1 applicant, 1 offer. I like it!</p>
<p>Mom: Do you have a suggested format for reporting? Which stats do you want for example? Overall GPA, GPA in Major(s), GRE scores, anything else? You note interviews, but not recommendations, which are one of the most critical factors in graduate admissions unlike undergrad admissions.</p>
<p>@Hudsonvalley51: the information/stats posted and the format are up to you. If you look at the biomedical sciences thread, some use a format similar to the ones used by the undergraduate forums, but others just list stats.</p>
<p>For the humanities and social sciences, the basic GPA and GRE scores can be supplemented by research interests, tier of undergraduate college, experience, and programs applied to.</p>
<p>I’m in the process of applying to several philosophy Ph.D. and M.A. programs, so hopefully I will be posting good news to this thread come March and April. Good luck everybody!</p>
<p>I’m appylin to the Hispanic language and literatures programs of NYU, Columbia, UPenn and Pittsburgh. I’ll keep you posted!
Good luck!</p>
<p>S has interviews scheduled at Notre Dame and U Kansas for PhD in Quantitative Psychology. No response yet from PhD programs at U Minnesota Twin Cities, U Illinois Urbana Champaign, U Virginia, U North Carolina Chapel Hill and Vanderbilt as well as the Master’s program at Illinois State.</p>
<p>D accepted at UIUC SIP. Nominated for fellowship. Level will be known later. Don’t know where this stands in her list of preferences, but she only put in 6 apps. No news from any of the others. I don’t think she wants me to post any stats, but I will update as more news comes.</p>
<p>I have applied to the East Asian/Asian Studies Masters program at the University of Oregon, the University of Hawaii and the University of Arizona.</p>
<p>I’ll keep you posted and I really hope I get in!</p>
<p>Daughter has received her first invitation to interview (for a fellowship at Notre Dame). She’s a History of Medicine & Science PhD candidate. Still awaiting word from Wisconsin, Penn, Johns Hopkins, Case Western Reserve, Pitt and Indinana. She also plans to apply to U of Toronto.</p>
<p>Son had a Skype interview with University of Virginia and is trying to work around a schedule conflict so he can interview at Illinois State. Still no word from Minnesota, UIUC and Vanderbilt. UNC is starting to look like a rejection since he knows others have had interviews scheduled there for a while. He interviewed at Kansas last week and may be hearing one way or the other in the not too distant future.</p>
<p>Son has been accepted to the Quantitative/Psychometric Methods PhD program at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities. One down, seven to go.</p>
<p>I was accepted into Albany’s cognitive psychology PhD program, but won’t know about funding until sometime this week. (Fingers crossed.) I also have an in-person interview at Binghamton later this month. Not a peep from the other two schools I applied to, and their deadlines were earlier. They are much bigger programs though so that could be part of the reason.</p>
<p>Son was just accepted by University of Virginia for their PhD program in Quantitative Psychology and now plans to withdraw his application to the Illinois State Masters degree program. Five left to hear from. It has been quite a day for him.</p>
<p>People are hearing already? I figured we wouldn’t know until February or March. At least that’s what where I applied (UPenn, Stanford, Yale, USC, UCSD, Northwestern) said.</p>
<p>It all depends on the program. People have been getting notifications for the past few weeks and will probably get sporadic ones over the next few months too. These are really just the beginning. </p>
<p>If you’re curious if any notifications have gone out for your school and discipline, thegradcafe.com has a results section where you can search for results and see what, if anything, people have heard. Warning: checking can become a little addictive.</p>
<p>Hey guys, new to the forum here after many months of perusing!</p>
<p>So I don’t know if this is an acceptance yet, but I was called yesterday evening by a professor at the Newhouse School (Syracuse U) I applied to, and they informed me that I’ve been selected as one of 12 semifinalists for their Fellowship program which provides full tuition and then a competitive salary as well as employee healthcare. Sooooo excited! Even just to be considered is seriously an honor!</p>
<p>But my question is we are still a couple weeks away from receiving decision letters, but could this be an unofficial way of letting me know I’ve been accepted? Just wanted to see what you guys thought. The professor was so nice and informed me that they were very impressed with my list of accomplishments–but I definitely didn’t want to just ask, “Sooo does that mean I’ve been admitted?” I also received an email from the Graduate Admissions Office today just letting me know that my application was received and will now be under review. </p>
<p>What are your thoughts?</p>
<p>^ That’s tough to know. My D has one acceptance, and a 2nd program informed her she was being nominated for a certain fellowship, but explicitly told her that it did not mean acceptance. That information came exactly 3 days after the application deadline.</p>
<p>GL, and going to the gradcafe.com is a good suggestion.</p>
<p>Update: IN with funding at Albany and Binghamton. I already turned down Albany’s offer. Just this week, I was contacted for a phone interview with UConn, and was told that it was more of a formality than anything, just to make sure I was a good match for the program. The professor felt very confident after our interview and said that my acceptance letter was already being drafted, with funding. Also, I have apparently been nominated for a new fellowship in the works, but they do not know for certain if it will go through this year or if I will actually be chosen for it. Either way, good news all around.</p>
<p>D has finally made her decision. She had 3 schools to choose from, and decided to choose Illinois over Chicago and ND. Full funding +stipend for at least 6 years, 2/3 years abroad. Her languages are Spanish, Portuguese and French. IL offered some things the others didn’t.</p>
