Hey! I'm also applying for Fall 2016 German PhD programs. I wish you the best! I'm currently an undergrad getting my degree in German and Letters at the University of Oklahoma. I'll be applying to study specifically the Frankfurt School and associated thinkers, the aesthetic environment they were in, and how their methods of critique function. My plan is to apply at U Chicago (looks like my dreamboat), Northwestern, UDub Seattle, U Indiana Bloomington, Princeton, Harvard, and Cornell. Sadly, I didn't look for literature specialities as much as critical theory, so I don't know about that... Also, want to critique each other's applications, SOPs, etc? My profs will be helping me but outside advice would be great too Last thing: were you on a DAAD grant last year? If so, did you attend the North American conference in Köln or the humanities conference in Jena? I was in Leipzig for a year on the DAAD undergraduate grant and wonder if we crossed paths.
