I thanked one of my POI at Penn for taking the time to correspond with me prior to the admissions and she wrote me back by saying this: "I'm very sorry we weren't able to offer you a spot, it was an *incredibly* tough year for admissions. I appreciate the note and I hope you're able to continue your research interests nonetheless. Warmly," I feel like at least she knows my existence in the world and even I end up elsewhere else maybe our paths can cross again in the future? who knows!?

2021 Application Discussion - Film & Media Studies / Cinema Studies
Kim2016 replied to jkv152's topic in Humanities
Cool! I just contacted them prior to my applications to make sure my research is a good fit w/ their dept. I spoke to 2 or 3 professors there including the DGS and they were all very friendly and gave me good information to their program as they are relatively new (re-branded from Comp. Lit dept) They said they only admit 3-5 grad students (including Masters) to offer full funding pkg to every admitted students. Good Luck!- 212 replies

Nice! On the status page it says decisions will be out by mid-March but based on last year's results it seems like they make their decisions by end of Feb. Have you spoken to any of your POIs or DGS before applying to the program?- 212 replies

Congrats!!! I'm also waiting to hear back from Berkeley but I was told by my PI earlier before applications that they will only accept 3-4 cohorts this year. I'm curious how many ended up applying to UCB this year.- 212 replies
