Yeah, super accurate! I think the biggest thing that hurt my applications this year was my writing sample; it wasn't in my subfield. I had my advisors and several colleagues give me feedback, and granted, I felt it was the best writing sample I could give, but it was nowhere near 19th century British literature.

Does anyone know if UPenn notified all the applicants who were accepted?

Congrats! That's my top choice. Still crossing my fingers (and toes).

15 applicants! Does that include the PhD in Creative Writing? Thanks! And sorry about that, that does suck.

congrats!

I'm still waiting for Princeton, UPenn, and UCSC. I believe I have an applied rejection from Yale...

Well, according to the results Yale English gets back to applicants around March. :-/

Has anyone heard back from university of pennsylvania English?

Thanks Algernon (PS, I love that book). I got waitlisted for the PhD, what's everyone's subfield? I heard they have the waitlist for the subfield, and I think there are 4 or maybe 5 if they include drama. With that said, there may be 3/4 people waiting per subfield. What does everyone else think?

Hi All, I was wondering how many people were waitlisted for the MA program in English? By my count there are 13 people waitlisted (according to the results page) - I don't know for PhD or MA. That's quite a large number of waitlisted students isn't it?

Hi Everyone, I'm a bit stressed out with applications and whatnot. I rescheduled my GRE general test to next month because my scores on the practice tests were inconsistent, and I didn't feel comfortable taking it... which means, I will be applying to schools late November. I know this may be a silly question, but do you think that'll hurt my application, since a lot of deadlines are December 1st? Thanks

i have a similar question, but for fairy-tales, or victorian reception of fairy-tales? any leads on people in the field?
