I'm bumping this thread because I think the current cohort could find it helpful when they make their decisions.

Spam folder caught CUNY acceptance email from professor... not an academic address so hoping this is real.

@WildeThing I think this one was meant for you! 

Cycles are never quite what you expect. It's always a pleasure to see the highs of a cycle and the friendships formed.
Congrats on the waitlists for Columbia and WUSTL! 
Congrats! Here's to hoping you hear back from more programs soon! (This year has been incredibly competitive because they've gained a few new resources as well as having gained an additional month of stipend-support. The previous stipend was guaranteed for 10 months; from now on, it's guaranteed for 11 + whatever additional funding you can secure with all the funding opportunities they have. There are a few courses that you can take during the summer that also come with a $2,000 stipend because they're associated with the Mellon Summer Dissertation Seminar.
Here's to hoping they move you from their MA to Ph.D. list!
 
I think there's some hope to be had!

Waitlisted at BU
I feel like this cycle is turning out just plain weird for me, but...I'm not mad at it.

In English, the CUNY Graduate Center is the only CUNY school offering a Ph.D. in English. If I remember correctly, you'll be teaching at a different CUNY school which may differ from other people in your cohort though.
