Just saw two admitted by Chicago EALC in the results board, anyone in our thread would like to claim for that? Congratulations to those who get in!! I haven't heard anything from the POI in Chicago after the interview two weeks ago, maybe they will refer me to the MAPH program. @mxiongturquoise really nice to have you here! My field is modern and contemporary Chinese literature and I'm interested in how the modern&contemporary writers make use of the traditional language and the oral tradition, your research seems very interesting to me! I remember there is a professor in Cornell focuses on Chinese modern prose&poetry.

Done with my interview of Chicago today! The professors asked very specific questions about my research project (one question is even about one line in my writing sample). They didn't ask anything beyond my SOP and writing sample, nothing about applications to other programs etc., and they seemed to be very familiar with my research. I felt good during the interview and sent them thank notes later, but got a very brief feedback. Now I'm really not sure about their impressions on me. Anyways, hope this might be helpful to you guys! Good luck!

@lordtiandao Good luck with your interview! I'm having one with my POI at Chicago tomorrow. Would you mind me ask whether you are interviewed by your POI, the same professor twice? And what kind of questions does he/she ask? Are they all very detailed questions about your research project? Thanks @costevens and @kotatsumuri ! I study modern&contemporary Chinese literature. I have asked several friends of mine, who are currently PhD students in Berkeley, Chicago and Harvard. It seems that the situations of different schools vary a lot. Most of them did not take interviews and some decisions were almost made even before the interview. So I'm kind of puzzled. Anyways, wish everyone good luck!

Hi everyone! I just received a letter from the chair of EALC Chicago admission committee. Informing me for a Skype interview this weekend. Anyone has the similar experience to share? Have not heard any news from all the other schools though.
