@BellaBendrix Sure, no problem. Sorry I didn't reply before, but for my mental health I decided to ration my visits to gradcafe. I applied to Emory, Duke, CUNY, University of Washington Seattle, and University of Oregon. My focus in contemporary North-American Literature and French Poststructuralism, although I would also take on comparative work in my other two languages Spanish and Italian.
Have you heard any news? I have been pretty relaxed the past few days but as March gets closer I am starting to worry again.
