  1. Thanks CrazyHappy! Congrats to you as well. I am really hoping for a letter soon haha. This is killing me.
  2. I haven't posted in here yet, but I figured I could help. I received rejections from Pitt (today), Duke, and Ohio State. I was accepted to UW-Milwaukee PhD in Media, Cinema and Digital Studies in English. I am still waiting to hear from Syracuse, Rochester, and U of Chicago. Has anyone heard from them yet?
  3. I'm still waiting to hear from a few schools, but I was admitted to UW-Milwaukee's Media, Cinema and Digital Studies PhD program in their English Department. I plan on moving up, from Youngstown, OH, sometime in July-August.
  4. I am in the same situation with UW-Milwaukee. According to the PAWS system, I was accepted into their Media, Cinema and Digital Studies PhD program in their English Department. I have not received any emails nor any letters. I was questioning if I was actually accepted.
  5. Thanks for the reply CBZ! I'm considering the MA at Kent/Paris for its abroad experience and the film experience to both better my PhD application (to get into a better school perhaps) and to improve chances once I hit the market. Coming from an open enrollment university I'm uneasy about both.
  6. Hello all, I am brand new to thegradcafe.com, but I already need advice... I am currently attending Youngstown State University and earning my MA in English. I am doing fairly well with a 3.85 and buried chest deep in my thesis. I plan on graduating Spring '14 and applying for doctoral programs in film/media studies. How much would I benefit from applying for a second MA in Film from an international university? (if at all...) More specifically, The University of Kent's Kent/Paris programs in film. 1 term in Kent and 1 in Paris. Few notes about my situation. -I also earned my BA from Youngstown State with a 3.28 GPA (I had some awful early semesters), and I worry about my opportunities having stayed at the same institution. -My thesis is film related (Spanish film to be exact). -I hope to find PhD film programs housed or crossed with English departments. -I never took advantage of YSU's Study Abroad Program. Thanks you for helping!
