Who do you contact to find out where you are on the waitlist? The program chair, or the admissions office?

Snail mail acceptance to New School MA program, since you can't go directly into their phd program with 25% scholarship. Good luck to all.
I also got into the New School MA with a scholarship. I wonder if we go through a program like that which requires you to go to their MA program before applying to the PhD how likely we are to get in to the PhD part of the program. Any thoughts? Also, if we are getting a scholarship for the MA, is this their way of telling us we have a good shot of getting in to the PhD later? I am curious because I have another acceptance to a straight-through PhD program, although the funding isn't good.... not sure if I should go to the sure thing without as much money or the gamble with some money
Accepted off U Vermont waitlist clin phd, I guess I forgot to pull myself off the waitlist Either way I am now! Good luck everyone
Did anyone else also receive an e-mail today from CW post about sitting in on some of their classes. They will be notifying applicants on Monday regarding admissions decisions but I am wondering if getting this e-mail now is a sign that I might be getting a phone call. If you did get this e-mail I would reaaaaaaaaly appreciate if you let me know. Thanks!
Hey- I received the email today as well... that was such a tease!!! I am wondering if anyone that interviewed at LIU did not receive the email?
Yea, that's the same thing I was trying to figure out. I swear my heart skipped a beat when I saw the e-mail b/c i thought that they originally said only accepted & waitlisted students would be invited--maybe it's just wishful thinking lol
Right!! I was in the middle of finishing up my notes for the day and I said to myself "this is it!!".. Only to read the bottom half of the email. Did you get a sense of how many they were looking to accept this year?
Auburn is my only shot. Anyone want to throw me a spot?
I know it feels good to get an acceptance, but do not be tantalized by it. It is standard for them to offer that 25% tuition remission.
The chances of getting in to the PhD are not good. They take about 80 MA students each year and about 16 get in to the PhD. Those who are "lucky" enough to continue on are heavily burdened, as the program offers financial aid packages to only 2 students.
I decided early on that I didn't want to even apply to the PhD because it is an exploitative and infantilizing environment. I watched friends of mine who had virtually enslaved themselves to professors and worked hard to earn between 3.80 and 4.0 GPA's be rejected for completely political reasons this year.
This school has a reputation as a company and not an institution of higher learning. I'm sad to say it, but this is entirely true.

Hey Justin, if you don't mind me asking, were you a high alternate or an alternate on the waitlist?
Did anyone else who was waitlisted at Pitt receive a rejection letter today? I am a first alternate and my POI has been great about updates, but then I received this letter today. I'm hoping it was just standard operating procedure for those not extended an offer in the first round...
Wow MichelleFC thanks so much for this info!! I was definitely leaning towards going straight for the PHD program (i.e. my other acceptance) but after what you said I have no doubt in my mind at all...I won't be attending new school.... YIkes!! The only reason I was even feeling slightly hesitant to reject them was because they had given me a 50% scholarship, which comes out to about double what I'd be getting at the other program. But the other program is very reputable and it is straight to phd so I am not going to even think twice now. Thank you again so much!!! You saved me some agonizing about what to do.
Sounds like the first choice accepted the offer.
Yea, I got the same email, but based on the bottom half of it, it seems everyone got it. Well, it's not much more of a wait... According to the emails, acceptance letters will be sent Tuesday afternoon.
PsychAddict and nicu4leo, I'm guessing LIU is your first choice since you're dying to know? Let me know, it's my first choice, and we may be future class mates? I'll post the second I hear!!
Yup, that's what happened :-(. Oh well, I got accepted to my second choice so I'm happy.
also... I'm wondering if anyone can give me some advice...
basically I'm getting a master's in London this year so wasn't able to go to any interviews in person, they were all conducted over the phone/skype. I am coming home for Easter to be with my family and could get to WSU easily as I don't live too far away from the campus. Does anyone think, even though I am waitlisted, that it would be inappropriate for me to ask the DCT/my POI if I could come to the campus, meet them, etc etc to learn more about the program? I'd be really interested to hear anyone's thoughts, if you have any, please PM me!! Thanks!
In my desperation, I looked up my online application status for Yeshiva and under the section "Admission Type" it said "Ferkauf Fall Admit"-does anybody who has not officially received an acceptance have that status? Feel free to PM me.

Hi Agador Spartacus,
I have the same thing too...but I am not certain if it is anything to be optimistic about...

Did anyone receive a call from CW Post yet?
Any one heard from University of Rhode Island after the interviews last month?
I'm trying to decide between the PsyD programs at Antioch U New England, University of Hartford, and Nova Southeastern U. I would like to pursue Neuropsychology. Nova is the only program that has a Neuropsych concentration, but I don't know much else about the school. Otherwise, the two others don't have concentrations.
Can anyone give me their input on these programs? Does any one of these hold a higher reputation that the others? I would REALLY appreciate any feedback! Thanks and good luck to everyone!
