Long time lurker, third time poster. I applied to 9 programs: accepted to one, rejected from four, and four MIA, which I'm just taking as implied rejections at this point. I really wish programs would go ahead and send out the rejection letters so that tiny part of me stops yelling "What if" as I compulsively check my e-mail. Venting reason? I'm on a waitlist for funding at the accepted program, and I cannot attend without any sort of assistance. It almost makes me wish I wasn't accepted so that I don't have to stare longingly at an acceptance letter while knowing that I can't actually attend. It's pretty much like when people trick their dogs by not throwing the ball and hiding it when playing fetch. Back to the thesis cubicle, I suppose. At least I have that. Edit: Wrong thread, but oh well. Still feels like a shutout to me!

Thanks both for the recommendations! I realize I can look at faculty profiles; however, just picking a specific university to peruse is headache inducing enough not to mention having to search through nearly every personal profile. I've been doing my research into universities, but I wanted to see if anybody here knew anything to help reduce the time I spend staring at university English departments profile pages, pushing past the bitterness and hoping beyond all hope that the word "science" will appear eventually. Thanks!

Hello all, First time posting here, so please forgive any mistakes. I wanted to know if anybody here had any suggestions for PhD programs with science fiction professors? I'm aware of UC-Riverside. I'm merely asking if anybody knows of any more? I know this topic was asked a while ago, and I struggled between necro-ing the thread or starting a new one. The answer I chose is obvious. Edit: Link to previous thread below.
