I wish I could've! Any general impressions you'd like to share?

Hooray! Congrats. Hopefully more of us will hear from them soon.

Next week? Oh, bless you. I was going mad not knowing. (Also, congrats!)

So I missed two calls today from a DC number and was absolutely giddy, thinking it might be a funding offer from Georgetown. My hands were shaking as I returned the call -- it rang once, and a recording told me I had reached some sort of nonprofit call center. The universe is trolling me.

- Pitt - Vanderbilt - Rochester - NYU (?) - At least three mid-table MA programs. (My MA was in Medieval History, so I'm resigned to the possibility of having to do a second one.) I'm interested in contemporary medievalisms, especially in popular culture and fantastic literature, but hardly anyone at brand-name schools does that sort of thing (no points for guessing why). Maybe I'll just con my way into a respectable program and then yell, "Surprise! Half my MA thesis was about Game of Thrones!" (The history faculty at U. of York were not at all happy with me.)
