Thank you for your suggestions (Simon?). Yes, I do realize it will be even more difficult for me because I don't have a master's and I will most likely compete with people who have it and/or can supplement with experience or publications.
I will definitely look up the schools you recommended. Your program's website does not have a lot of info on placement, what are your thoughts?
Ps: Noticed Edouard Glissant's Tout- Monde event and wished I was there.

Hello!
"Do not apply to Columbia"
That's the only school I have decided to apply to. This is very scary!
I just graduated from a small liberal arts in Michigan (as an international student from Senegal and Cape Verde) with a Bachelor's in French (3.9 Gpa, phi beta kappa, honors, bla bla bla). Since June, I have been obsessing so crazily over my GRE scores, I have not spent enough time researching programs. My French professor recommended I apply to Columbia and NYU (she taught there) but it did not seem like NYU was quite the right fit for me. I am (very) interested in " la migritude", immigrants literature, diaspora, conflicts with identity and space, etc. I am having a hard time figuring out how to look for programs/schools that match my interests, so I would be very grateful to get more "insider" perspective.
Also, saying that Columbia is over enrolled, does it mean they will not get any new PhD candidates? Do I stand a chance?
Please Help!

Princeton sent some emails this afternoon, but I believe not everyone heard back.
