Any first-handed experience or rumors would be appreciated. (M.Arch)
I would like to know how long does it takes for those university to reply their decision, after they receive the portfolio.
Personally I would apply to GSD and Sci-Arch. Done GRE and things.
My friends applied for AA/Bartlett. It has been a month now after the university received the portfolio. And now we are getting excited. ( or nervous ) hahaha. We heard somebody got accepted after 2 weeks, while some around a month. Some also got rejected around a month. Oh no...
Correct me if I'm wrong but from what I hear most schools begin sending out decisions late Feb to the first few weeks of March. A few are slated for the first week of April.
Ive applied to the MAUD program at the GSD and SmarchS at MIT. Extremely nervous as well. The wait is frustrating.
The wait is getting me all anxious as well. So I did some research. Here is when people heard last year. Mark your calendars! (All these dates are for the M.Arch 1 programs)
^almost no arch school cares about GRE unless you bomb it. I asked them about it when I was considering applying there several years ago... they point blank said they didn't care. haha.
Hey darth_arch, I think (and hope) so. SMACT decisions also came out, so my bet is that we will be hearing about SMarchS next week. What group did you applied to? Urban Planning?
@SpatialSojourner it depends on the school, as to when they want it. If you've been rejected, of course there's no need, but if you just haven't heard, it would be a good idea. Many schools seem to send out financial aid packages with or close to admissions offers. It only takes a few minutes, so might as well get it done. You can estimate the numbers and confirm later if you haven't filed taxes yet.
They are calling their top picks. Friend of mine was called by Denari and he was in their top 5 for admissions. Keep calm though, they will send out email notifications soon enough, or maybe you and I will get a call. Who knows.....
I'am a senior at uc Berkeley Ced and I talk to the dean of the architecture yesterday about grad school acceptance responses. He told me that this year they should be send on March 1st. I hope this help.
Hp87 did they send you the email to your personal email address that you used to apply, or to your UW Net ID email? I remember getting an email from them saying they were going to use UW net ID emails for further contact but I don't even have one.
GSD / Sci-Arch / AA / Bartlett / M.Arch waiting waiting waiting.for decision?

Stay calm and hope for the best !
The wait is killing me too. I check the grad cafe almost every day! Ugh
darth_arch is right though, nothing until late February, early march.
I check gradcafe.com every day too, hahaha. I applied to Harvard, MIT, and CMU for their Design+Computation programs.
I try to entertain myself working but I can't hahha.
The wait is getting me all anxious as well. So I did some research. Here is when people heard last year. Mark your calendars! (All these dates are for the M.Arch 1 programs)
Sci-Arc // phone: 2/27 email: 3/25-26
Yale // email: 2/27-28
Harvard // email (in): 3/4 email (out): 3/12
Princeton // phone (in): 3/11-12 email (out): 3/14
MIT // phone: 3/13 email: 3/14 post: by 4/1
hmmm
@Shep, MAUD and SmarchS follow similar dates?
@darth_arch I'm not sure. You might be able to find out by looking through last year's results at gradcafe. Thats what I did to find those.
I heard back from UCLA via phone call yesterday 2/9. Feels good to have the first one down. It was a yes!
lucky you, was it for the M.Arch I , or M.Arch. II
Dang that is early. Congrats mrenz!
That's awesome mrenz! Congrats! You must've made a great impression! What degree? M.arch I or M.arch II?
I just received my first rejection from AA, How sad it is
That sucks Vince but cheer up, maybe it wasn't the place for you! Did you apply anywhere else?
I've applied for SAC/ Delft /Bartlett /ITECH /CITA /Greg Lynn Studio/
It seems that I need to take a long time receiving all the results..
Yeah you applied to a lot different schools, I'm sure you'll get into one of them!
I wonder how many people have heard back already...
It was MArch I. Thanks everyone!
Just an update:
UCLA - 2 people in on 2/8 and 1 in on 2/9, all by phone (interesting they were contacted over the weekend (all M.arch I)
Yale - 1 person rejected on website (M.arch II)
MIT - 2 people in (M.arch I) by phone
Hp87, Are you getting that information from Grad Cafe?
Everyday that passes with no response, I get a little more worried.
I am ( I know, I'm pretty intense about it).
And yes, I get worried too. I applied to UCLA, USC, UIC, YALE, GSD, and UPENN. No word yet. *Fingers Crossed*
3 people into MIT for MArch I! It seems that they are releasing the decisions very early this year!
Seems odd to me that these school piece-meal their acceptance letters.
every one who had applied to MIT is worried as MIT starts sending its decision around early march for time being let us assume it as troll.
Hey congratulations!! I'm crossing fingers for the rest of us (me included)!
Congrats!
Congrats Tabeguache! Is that your first choice?
Crossing my fingers for the rest of us along with Marina!
^almost no arch school cares about GRE unless you bomb it. I asked them about it when I was considering applying there several years ago... they point blank said they didn't care. haha.
Congrats though, and good luck!
congrats Tabeguache .what was your undergrad degree?
nice 1 Tabeguache .
this wait is making me desperate to log in archinect , grad cafe every 5 minutes from last 2 days.
Congrats Tabeguache,
Suprised MIT started sending out decisions this early ! Is it safe to assume even the SmarchS decisions will be sent out sometime now?!
Hey darth_arch, I think (and hope) so. SMACT decisions also came out, so my bet is that we will be hearing about SMarchS next week. What group did you applied to? Urban Planning?
Yes, Smarchs in (Architecture+Urbanism). How about you?
Do you have to fill out the FAFSA by Feb 15th even if you haven't been accepted?
darth_arch, I applied to the Design and Computation group. I wish you good luck!!
SpatialSojourner, I have no idea :S
@SpatialSojourner it depends on the school, as to when they want it. If you've been rejected, of course there's no need, but if you just haven't heard, it would be a good idea.

You can estimate the numbers and confirm later if you haven't filed taxes yet.
@Marina CM- Thank you, I wish you the very best too :)
Update:
A friend just received a phone call today from RISD awarding her early acceptance to the M.arch I program.
A friend of mine got accepted from Bartlett and AA.
Seems like UCLA sent out more acceptances...
http://thegradcafe.com/survey/index.php?q=ucla+architecture&t=a&o=&pp=25
They are calling their top picks. Friend of mine was called by Denari and he was in their top 5 for admissions. Keep calm though, they will send out email notifications soon enough, or maybe you and I will get a call. Who knows.....
has anyone heard from berkeley?
got the offer from SCI-Arc, MArch1 with 10K today.
good luck everyone.
Also got a phone call from SCI-Arc. Anyone going to the visit on Monday?
Congrats you guys!
The stress from applying is starting to come back thanks to all this wait. Every hour that passes makes me more anxious!
Congrats to all of you who got in though!
Just got an email from UIC, super excited to finally receive some good news!
Now waiting on the rest, good luck guys!
Yale email!
Hp87 did they send you the email to your personal email address that you used to apply, or to your UW Net ID email? I remember getting an email from them saying they were going to use UW net ID emails for further contact but I don't even have one.
Salem:
I got an email to my personal email, they said they would be sending further information next week so remain vigilant!
It makes me much less anxious when I read that you guys are receiving news, lol!! Congrats!!
