  1. Congrats! Looks like a few of us are anxiously awaiting the same thing.
  2. Ha, my advisor recommended I do the exact same thing today. I probably still will tomorrow but at least I won't be alone in not hearing anything.
  3. I got my official acceptance packet for UW-Milwaukee PhD yesterday. If anyone here is still PMing about the program and stuff, please let me know! (Lit and Cultural Studies plan.)
  4. Swell. Looking forward to that. Hah. On the bright side, my current university's email server seems to be down so at least I can't refresh my email repeatedly until I get the news.
  5. I received an email from the department yesterday saying they've sent their choices to the graduate school. Results should be out soon.
  6. I got an informal acceptance today from UW-Milwaukee in literature and cultural studies. Anyone else?
  7. I got my Michigan State lit acceptance a few weeks ago! Still waiting to hear back from some schools higher up on my list, but it's nice to know that I'm set with funding. Congrats to everyone with their acceptances!
  8. I just wish they'd send a quick rejection email or something. I didn't get an interview call, which, let's be real, I didn't expect. However, I'd just like to kill the tiny glimmer of hope I had because I haven't been formally rejected yet.
  9. I don't know how to edit my post but in case anyone sees this... Two days later I got an email telling me I GOT IN!! So, hooray!
  10. Hey all! I applied to Western Illinois University to get my MA in English. The application was finalized three weeks ago, and I got an email right away saying they'd passed it on to the department for consideration. Now it's three weeks later and I haven't heard a word! It's making me crazy! I'm currently stuck in a job I don't really want, and this acceptance would be everything to me. I'm crossing my fingers and holding my breath for a good outcome -- including an assistantship. Still, I'm starting to panic now that I'm well into week three. I know typically rolling admissions have a quick turnaround. I don't know if a delay is good because if I were being rejected outright, it would've come quickly. Or it's just entirely possible this is simply how long it takes and I'm being a worrywart. I just wanted to vent somewhere where people would be able to relate to my OBSESSIVE need to refresh my email. Good luck everyone! (Also, anyone apply or know someone who applied to the English department at WIU? Their admission requirements weren't all that high but I still wonder about their acceptance statistics. Nothing is available online!)
