Funding
SubmarineReflection replied to bluecheese's topic in Literature, and Rhetoric and Composition
I got into Berkeley, but they have yet to tell me how much funding is available... -
Rejected from UChicago. Not surprised because I went there for undergrad and my contact in the department kind of hinted at it.

Can I just say that GRE scores are REALLY not the most important thing? I say this (and really don't want to sound like I'm bragging): but my quantitative and analytical scores were lower than yours, and my verbal only a little higher, and I got into my two top choice schools. So fit, SOP, writing sample and recommendations tell a school way more about you than your GRE scores. But yeah... everything does cost $$$, and it sucks.

Decisions
SubmarineReflection replied to kurayamino's topic in Literature, and Rhetoric and Composition
I'm in the exact same boat! The only two schools I got into are my absolute top choices-- and there are so many factors to consider! Hoping that campus visits will help spark that inner intuition. -
Nah I'm assuming rejection at this point. I just think it's super interesting how much later rejections are sent out than acceptances.
-
Anybody heard from Stanford?

And one more thing: MAPH is a general MA in the humanities. You can pick your focus (English, Art History, etc.), but it's definitely not a Comp Lit program.
-
I highly highly do NOT recommend MAPH if you're planning on continuing to a PhD. And yes, it's unfunded and very expensive. Message me if you have any questions!

Thanks so much, everybody! This is gonna be a hard decision for sure. Let's hope that Comp Lit sends out all their final decisions this week! I'm rooting for all of you

Just got the acceptance from Harvard. In shock.
-
Me too. Wow, they really don't like me, do they? First rejected for undergrad, now this. Oh well.
-
I did! But not expecting anything.
-
Just got an email from Harvard reminding me to fill out some Supplemental Data form. So I guess they're literally just starting to review applications.
-
Also no word from NYU, which is kind of funny because I had a dream last night I got rejected from there...
-
Yep, still waiting to hear from Stanford, NYU, Brown, and Harvard comp lit programs
