Thanks @somethingClassics and @ClassicsApp21 for your quick response. Congratulations @somethingClassics. Even though I want to work on a PhD, I'm okay waiting for now. There's always next year. @ClassicsCandidate, sorry to hear that you got all rejections as well. From what I can tell, this was a tough year for a lot of candidates.

Has anyone heard back from NYU Classics (GSAS)? I haven't heard anything since I applied. I'm also fairly certain they don't interview candidates, if I remember correctly.

I guess we'll have to wait and see. Some programs still have deadlines in January. Overall, I don't expect that there will be a significantly larger demand for Classics than in previous years. I could be wrong, but I doubt there will be a wave of applicants like in other fields (e.g. Psychology).

I don't know if this is the norm, but I was talking to one admin at a grad school in NY who said their program has an unusually low number of applicants this cycle.
