As there still appears to be some confusion regarding NYU's admissions proceedings, permit me to share what has transpired thus far concerning the matter. Over this past weekend, the history department at NYU held a visitation weekend for all of its prospective students. Since the number of prospectives in attendance, which did not include many international students, significantly exceeded the anticipated size of the matriculating class, I imagine that both those destined for admission and those intended for waitlisting were present. It is now Monday evening, and we have yet to hear back from the department concerning its final admissions decisions.
On a related note, the prodigious amounts of alcohol consumed by certain graduate students would shame even the most bacchanal of college freshmen.
