Any accepted Rutgers applicants out there who will not be taking their offer?

Thanks, tarsila89! Would you be willing to share your area of interest? Feel free to message me if you prefer.

Also, any University of Delaware applicants out there?

I would be interested in hearing more from the person who was accepted at Toronto. If you're around, would you be willing to message me? Thanks!

Yes, thanks! It seems helpful...though I question the accuracy of some of it.

Last year, someone posted a spreadsheet with some data going back several years with funding package info for art history programs. I can't seem to find it again. Has anyone seen anything like this posted on grad cafe?

Anyone heard anything from Toronto? It looks like in the past they have been all over the board in terms of when they make decisions/notify applicants. Just curious if anyone has any inside scoop.

Any University of Maryland PhD admits out there who’d be willing to talk about funding packages with me? Could you pm me? Thanks!

I first emailed my POI who directed me to the DGS. It took her a couple of weeks to reply and let me know my status.

I haven’t been admitted; I’m on the waitlist at Rutgers. But, I just got an email from the DGS today who said they are only taking 4 PhD students this year.

Any Early Modernists out there who’ve decided where they’re going? I’m on the waitlist for several schools and trying to get a sense of where a spot might open up.

I think what it likely means is that they have notified their first choices for admission and we are likely on somewhat of an unofficial waitlist until they have a sense of whether they will want to extend acceptances to additional candidates in order to fill their spots. In contacting other programs, that is basically what I have been told. It may be in some cases that applications have also been referred to MA programs for consideration, but I already have an MA so at least for me that’s not the case.

Does anyone know when Pitt’s visit days are for admitted students?

@FreakingOutFragonard I also have heard nothing from NYU! But then again, I haven’t heard anything from 9 out of 10 of the schools I have applied to :/

Thanks, @ReichenbachFalls! Nothing on my end...must not be good news for me! If you’re willing to share, what’s your subfield?

Any Rutgers applicants out there? I’m curious if anyone has heard anything from them yet!

Any recommendations for PhD programs in 16th- and 17th-century Italian art? I have already have an MA in Art History and solid language skills. I know that in the past five years a number of scholars in Early Modern art have retired, especially in the Baroque and the 17th century, so I am also considering working with scholars who focus on Medieval or Renaissance Italian art. Of course, funding is also a concern. Thoughts?

I agree. Not only are other students waiting to hear back about acceptances off waitlists...they are waiting to hear about funding...and schools are waiting to hear back so that they can make decisions about scheduling for next year. If you have all your options, please notify your schools as quickly as possible.

Has anyone written to Rutgers to ask when they are going to send out final notifications? Has anyone here been accepted to Rutgers' PhD program and are accepting or turning down the offer? Just curious if anyone knows anything about Rutgers' process, other than that they tend to stagger their notifications.

Definitely still waiting on Rutgers...does anyone have any updates from them?

Glad to know I am not the only one still waiting on Rutgers. Each year their notification dates seem to be very different.

Anyone else out there still waiting to hear back from Rutgers for PhD?

TCU funds their full-time MA students through assistantships...either as a TA or RA.

Anyone out there still waiting to hear from Rice? There is one acceptance up on the board, but I haven't heard anything. Just curious to know if there are others who have not heard.
