Website Tracking Acceptance and Rejection Letters

Published by jreader at 10:48 pm under grad school Edit This

On the heels of my rather depressing entry about grad school admissions, my friend just introduced me to a very helpful and interesting site: thegradcafe.com. It has a number of forums, blogs, and other cool features, but of most interest to my nervously waiting friend is the results section where users post one line summaries of their acceptances, rejections, and wait list notices.  It helps to know that others have or haven’t heard back from the schools to which you applied, or to see if others are getting financial packages, or just to bitch about the schools that send mean rejection letters.  Here’s the English one, for example, though the website is for all programs.  Definitely check it out, especially if you feel like the only person around biting their finger nails and waiting to hear back from grad schools.  Trust me, you’re not alone.
