I'm with you; I've still have not heard. I emailed the DGS at the beginning of last week, and she said that she would be notifying applicants at the end of the week, which would have been 3/27.

Waitlist Movements

I agree with you, LeadersAA, Auburn has been upstanding and helpful in the application process; I would really like to attend. As I am not able to leave Alabama (my wife is currently completing her residency here) I was only able to apply to two institutions - U of Alabama and Auburn. I have been waitlisted at both. Congratulations on your acceptance! And it's good to "meet" someone else interested in the 19th century, even if it is across the pond. One of my all-time favorite professors is a Victorianist - you guys are pretty good people:) Cheers to both of us getting in off the waitlist! -

Hey LeaderAsAnimals, I recently spoke with the DGS at Auburn. He was really friendly and told me that, due to university budget cuts, they are only accepting four Ph.D. students this year instead of the normal six or seven :/ They are still waiting to hear from students, so I guess we'll just sit tight for now. Good luck to you! Currently, I'm gravitating towards being an Americanist (19th century), but most of my critical interest lies in ecocriticsm. What about you? -

Hello All, I hope you all don't mind if I join the nail-biting group. I was wondering if anyone has applied to and/or has had word from Auburn or U of Alabama? I have been waitlisted at both. The DGS at Auburn told me that I am at the top of the list, so I hope that turns into good news. I'm just curious to see if there's any movement out there for these programs. Good luck to everyone in the coming weeks!
