  1. This comment was quite helpful! It is always good to hear straight from those experiencing the job search. I'm very interested in Writing Program Admin experience, and that is something that all my final picks have in common, so it is encouraging to read what you wrote. Thanks for sharing!
  2. Hi there! Fellow rhet/comp person here. I have had a similar concerns. I was accepted to two programs, with one slightly edging out the other in regards to rank/ placement. However, the one with the slightly lower placement/ranking felt like a better fit and offered me a lot more funding. My advisers/ past professors all told me to go for the fit/ funding. They indicated that the confidence/ comfort that funding allows would help me both professionally and personally, especially since the difference between the rank of the universities was relatively small. Hope this was somewhat helpful!
  3. I can't speak to UGA, but from what I can tell, U of South Carolina is sending out postal acceptances this time around for their literature and comp/rhet programs. I had a conversation with someone at the graduate program who mentioned that information regarding funding and assistantships will be included in the postal acceptance letters, so that is something to be on the look out for!
  4. Hello all! I have been lurking for the majority of the season thus far, but I got some responses that may be of use to any Comp/Rhet people who applied to schools in the Southeast. On Thursday, I got an email from the Grad Director at Clemson who mentioned the advisory committee was meeting to discuss who to admit to the program. No information as far as a timeline goes, but I guess it's still in progress for anyone still hoping for that program. Additionally, I called the grad school at University of South Carolina about an oddity on my application portal and ended up speaking with someone from the English department. It turned out I was accepted (hurray!), but the comp/rhet acceptances are coming through postal mail like the literature acceptances, so some comp/rhet acceptances should be making their way through the mail soon. Congrats to everyone's acceptances and successes thus far!!
