  1. To be fair, I DID choose the program that I did because of the impressive placement rate of their graduates in both academia and industry, the emphasis they place on finishing students within 5 years, and the overall generous funding package in addition making every attempt to provide students with summer funding... I don't think every "fully funded" program necessarily has those characteristics and they're good things to consider...
  2. I had a Skype "interview" with McGill last year and they just wanted to make sure I had taken a syntax course. Otherwise I think my interviewer just told me about some of their research and I probably asked a few questions. I still over-prepared for it, so feel free to do that anyway.
  3. Mine was two pages single-spaced which seemed to be fine. I probably wouldn't write more than that.
  4. North Carolina State University has a two-year MA in sociolinguistics (with some fabulous sociolinguists) and offers paid TAships.
  5. Yeah! I hope to. It's still a ways away yet... (or it feels like it).
  6. Going to UCLA. Glad to be done with this process!
  7. From what I gathered while considering McGill, their linguistics department seems to have a close relationship with the Centre for Research on Brain, Language, and Music in Montreal (http://www.crblm.ca/).
  8. UChicago's open house is this week... after which I'll finally be able to make a decision. Somehow.
  9. I saw someone posting on the results board about Stanford: all offers went out today or earlier to people who were invited to the open house for interviews last week.
  10. Just declined an offer and it feels terrible! Even though I really didn't think it was a wonderful fit. At least I'm one step closer towards making a final decision... two more visits to go.
  11. Same exact thing happened to me two years ago! Dis!
  12. Congrats! One full glass, one empty glass. That's how it goes, right? I'm on my way to my first campus visit tomorrow. Nervous, but definitely excited.
  13. There's an open house for UChicago the first week of April for admitted students.
