  1. Congrats, Yanaka! Great stuff. And yeah, chances are slim but I don’t think it’s a 100% rejection. I’m actually thinking of emailing a coordinator...
  2. That sounds about right. I'm a guy, but I plan to wear jeans with a collared shirt and sweater/cardigan wherever I go. Also have blazers, but likely won't wear those. Also: any more news on programs/interviews?!
  3. ^Yeah, that's what I meant! Also, for those waiting on Penn still— fingers crossed for tomorrow! *heavy breathing intensifies*
  4. Okay, that makes sense. There is hope, I suppose. Thanks, friend! And good luck! If you feel comfortable, do share how the interview tomorrow goes!
  5. Also, yeah, even as the interview is casual and friendly, for Penn it is very much a "stage" in the admissions process as @to_di has mentioned. Do your best!
  6. No worries! Would you mind clarifying what "short notice" entails? Penn and Michigan (got in there already) are the only two schools I'm excited about, so you may be able to understand why I'm dying for any information here!
  7. Congratulations! I had a friend who gave one last year. She said it was very casual, the 'committee' (really just two professors) were nice, and asked about her research. Mainly was to understand personality fit, from what she told me.
  8. At least one more Penn interview call has come today, according to the Results Page. Is all hope lost, or not? Depends on how you see it, I guess! Side note: I literally feel as if I'm dying on the inside!
  9. Glad we could help! Here's hoping to good news for us. Penn's program really is fantastic.
  10. I'm unsure. I do think they interview all applicants, but, seeing the results from last year, I'm also noticing that they split up their interview call ups. Some people were given an interview on Feb 5th, and others on Feb 9th. So it's likely split this year as well. All this to say: not all is lost!
  11. I've just looked at the results page, and it seems like Penn has begun sending in interview calls!
  12. I haven't heard anything from that thus far, if it helps! Admittedly, my fit with them was just okay though.
  13. Hi guys! I am so excited to see Comp Lit' people on here! Have applied to Penn, Chicago, Ann Arbor, UT Austin, NYU (English), and UMN. Received acceptances from UMN and Ann Arbor thus far (was 'datguy' who posted the first Ann Arbor acceptance on the list). Excited to hear about the other schools, but mostly Penn, really. Penn and Ann Arbor were tied for my top choice when I applied!
