Thanks! I got an email with a link to the website. There I found the official acceptance letter. I'm guessing all Chicago admits have been notified. They admit 3-4 applicants each year, no? My research interests revolve around the convergence of urbanity, the cinematic soundtrack, and montage in film.
I have also been nominated by the department for a university fellowship at Berkeley but still don't understand what type of funding I will receive, if any, if I don't end up getting this fellowship. I find out about the fellowship on March 1st. Does anyone know how film and media phd candidates are usually funded at Berkeley?
