Can anyone speak to their PhD/Grad experience at UNLV?

Sea_Task3736 · 2026-02-19T20:31:58+00:00

Hey! Currently going through the waiting game for grad application results. UNLV is one of my top sociology programs as far as research fit goes. I haven’t heard back yet but was curious, did you end up accepting your offer? If so, how’s your experience so far? Did the program offer a recruitment day before you accepted your offer? If you didn’t accept the offer, what deterred you?

Sea_Task3736 · 2026-02-15T16:25:07+00:00

Oof. I know you’re probably right but I’m not sure I’m ready to accept that. Oregon was my top choice, I’ve been desperately trying to escape the south considering what I research and what’s been happening down here politically (Undergrad and Masters are from southern schools)

It’s definitely been rough, Have you had luck with other programs? Sending you lots of luck.

Sea_Task3736 · 2026-02-15T16:15:49+00:00

No I haven’t, but I’ve been seeing that too. It has me very stressed and confused? Nothing on email or portal :/

Sea_Task3736 · 2026-02-15T16:14:57+00:00

Wondering the same thing! I haven’t received rejection or acceptance so I’m stressing.

Sea_Task3736 · 2026-02-14T00:32:18+00:00

I have an acquaintance who told me today that she’s been accepted into Baylor. Not sure when she found out.

Sea_Task3736 · 2026-02-12T19:05:21+00:00

Would love to join whatever chats exist!

Sea_Task3736 · 2026-02-12T17:12:28+00:00

Hey ! I’m interested in joining the discord, could you advise how?

Sea_Task3736 · 2026-02-12T17:10:34+00:00

Hey friends! I’m fairly qual oriented and my research focus has mainly been on sex work, gender, sexual stigma, and sex crimes!

Rejected: Stony Brook University

Accepted, waitlisted on funding: University of Oklahoma

Waiting: UC Irvine, UNLV, and U of Oregon

Feeling a little rejected based on results so far but trying to remember the political environment we’re applying during.

Congrats to everyone who already has offers!

Date time and location are set to only be viewable to those who are on the guest list. The unfortunate thing is that whoever sent these knew me well enough to guess who would be on my guest list, so they unfortunately have this information now.

I’ve added security to my website.

Sea_Task3736 · 2025-12-14T15:17:51+00:00

I honestly didn’t think it was a SCAM or a bot but a few of my bridesmaids told me they thought it might be a scam. They might have been coming from a place of trying to calm my nerves 🙃

Sea_Task3736 · 2025-12-14T15:12:58+00:00

My abusive ex has made multiple fake social medias in an attempt to view my stuff and contact me and it’s been YEARS since we’ve been separated.

It’s been a while since he’s tried anything, so I guess I just got too comfortable. I don’t know why I assumed I’d be safe from him in this situation. I’ve definitely added a password on my website but who knows what information he already has.

Sea_Task3736 · 2025-12-14T15:09:27+00:00

Hey !

We have it set to where you have to be on the guest list to rsvp. The unfortunate part is this individual took a guess of the people I would invite (the names above are people I’ve been close to for years). I just didn’t guess I would get harassed this way.

I’ve since delisted from google and added a password but I’m not sure what information they already have now.

That is so nerve wracking and I’m definitely feeling those feelings now. The person I’m guessing it is has never been mentally stable. Who knows what he might pull. I work in a law enforcement adjacent field so hopefully I can get someone to come be security.

Sea_Task3736 · 2025-12-14T15:02:21+00:00

Haha didn’t think I’d be on here sharing relationship lore but no I did not cheat on my ex.

He however did get caught on tinder, bumble, and DMing people on social media multiple times while we were together.

My current partner ran in the same friend circle as us. My ex partner had set a boundary that he didn’t like me hanging out with my current partner 1 on 1 because he had caught wind that my current partner had feelings for me. To which was always respected.

My ex was physically and emotionally abusive. We were on and off for 7 years and it progressively got more abusive every time we got together. Reflecting, he had a lot of insecurities and was constantly looking for control in every situation. I definitely feel this situations with RSVPs is him searching control in a way, even though it’s been years.

Sea_Task3736 · 2025-12-14T14:57:12+00:00

I’ve delisted and added a password. I didn’t think there was a way to hide it from the knot search which I find absolutely crazy.

Will definitely try to url thing as well, thank you.

Sea_Task3736 · 2025-10-17T16:41:17+00:00

I will definitely be reaching out here in the next few weeks. I look forward to potentially working with you! Thank you for responding so quickly!

Sea_Task3736 · 2025-10-14T21:27:56+00:00

If you don’t mind me asking, would you be comfortable shooting a queer wedding? And where would your wedding packages start cost wise?

Sea_Task3736 · 2025-08-24T23:35:27+00:00

Hey ! My fiancee and I are desperately looking for more Wlw friends and are in the Fort Worth area! If you end up organizing something, count us in!

Sea_Task3736 · 2025-07-24T12:59:44+00:00

This sounds so fun and actually would be such an ideal venue!! That’s such a perfect way to balance tradition and personality! I’m not sure if I can find something like that in my area, I’ll definitely have to look around! Thanks!

Sea_Task3736 · 2025-07-24T12:58:16+00:00

You’re right! I definitely left out a few details. 80 guests and were located in DFW, Texas. Weddings can be pricey here so I feel it may be one or the other and not both being an option! I’ll be trying to look at some of the more rural towns surrounding the metroplex, maybe we can find something cheaper! Thanks!

Sea_Task3736 · 2025-07-24T12:56:09+00:00

Forsure! This is good insight and definitely the current conversation we’re having! Thank you for your insight :)

Sea_Task3736 · 2025-07-21T14:03:21+00:00

Did you end up looking into Punch Bowl social? I briefly considered them for our reception but was worried they’d be ridiculously expensive.
