I wonder if they admitted anyone working in ancient this year. They seem to have accepted *very* many students working in this area in the past few years.
I heard that this year the results are directly sent from the Graduate School at Yale. I haven't heard from them. So presumably this means a rejection. I feel sad about this.
Excellent! Thanks for sharing your background. I was curious because I only saw a very limited number of students educated in China who ended up getting into top American PhD programs in philosophy over the past few years. You should be very proud of yourself. Congratulations!
Wow, I cannot imagine you were educated in China (no offense, sorry)! Your English is not distinguishable from native English speakers. Amazing! Could you tell us whether you received a degree in the US? Your application this year must be very very strong.
