Hey, thought username111 rang a bell - and the ENS thing helped me figure it out : you were the exchange student taking that CNRS seminar on Proust manuscripts last year, right ? I sat next to you once (it's ok if you don't remember So you're applying to PhD programs for the fall ? where ? To all : I only applied to French at UPenn and CompLit at Yale - obviously got rejected from the latter; hoping to get over it with the French program at Penn. I went to the interviews weekend in early Feb, but haven't heard from them since. Picking up on Ornihtology's question about French programs ranking : what's the general impression in the US about the major programs ? What would you guys think ?

Hey, So I have no clue about the waitlist (totally agree on the fact that it is frustrating), but I do know the program is great. I took classes there and really enjoyed it, it's a very strong comp lit program. Hope they don't keep you waiting too long, & good luck !
