Ah, liminality. Okay I think I need to go find a new hobby besides for checking GradCafe 100 times a day....

Thanks, JeremiahParadise. It seems my application is still pending, whatever that means.

So if I haven't heard anything from Madison is it safe to say that it's a rejection, or there is still a semblance of hope? I can't tell if you all are pessimistic neurotics like me, or are way more graduate school saavy. Probably a yes to both.

Hey all, just joining this thread now. The schools applied to are in my signature. This is my first application season and I was pretty naive when I started the app process, so I am preparing myself for the worst. My research interests include: the intersection of verbal/visual rhetorics (my BA was a dual degree in English Lit. and Communication Design), new media studies and multimodal pedagogy, writing across the curriculum, and writing center administration. Anyone else here apping to joint MA/PhD programs? And if so, are we reviewed alongside the applicants who already have MA's, as sort of second-tier applicants, or are they reviewing us separately?
