Title is pretty self-explanatory. Some schools SAY 'you can only apply here 3 times,' but I'm wondering if this is actually true or not--is it enforced? Is there a way the school will know if you applied over 3 times? Desperately want to know so that I am clear on whether I should apply to these schools of choice this year.

ok to everyone who just posted (wow, a lot of you - won't bother quoting/tagging) - my friend is a medievalist - the decision came out today - im not sure if my friend got a call or email, but i could ask all in all, he pretty much just slayed everything. what a fucking champ. even prouder to be his friend haha

so uh harvard is out - my friend got in and has been sweeping the board in harvard, yale, columbia lmfao even though im not a shutout, it looks like i'll be declining for this year and applying again next year, anyone else?

ok hold on tea is way better i can't stomach coffee

real random - why are all the usernames tea-related? is everyone obsessed with tea? i like tea too but wtf lmao

Thanks!! Crossing my appendages for you, too. I'm not interested in queer theory per my application, but i'm interested in gender studies, which is pretty close. I'm guessing both are pretty popular... @everyone Also, does anyone know if schools hold off on notifying waitlisted people unless they're off the waitlist and just plain accepted? (and for those who aren't accepted, just give them a later rejection?) does that even make sense, idk. Just curious.

yeah, 'medieval shit' lol according to him, which i think is kinda less crowded

Anyone 20-21st Century American and British? i feel like this is a competitive concentration to choose. Idk if schools have been taking people with this research focus or not this year, anyone else know? i think my parents r in disbelief that I haven’t gotten in anywhere yet, but I’m totally believing it lmao it’s just sad

@barshmie @3131 @every1 it was by email, and no, I didn’t post it. That feels like bad mojo waiting to unleash itself

hey all, yale is out - my one english friend just got into that program too lmao #imfucked

does anyone know what big schools have yet to inform, and which ones already have? i'm not sure i'm keeping track that well and have no idea what to take as implied rejections or not yet

so uh my only english major friend recently informed me that he got into freaking columbia's phd program! just the other day, he was thinking he wouldn't get in anywhere lmao

if only i could get more piercings and tattoos. 1) no funds 2) still in college aka dependent on my parents, and they were pissed af (they're traditional asian parents) currently have a bunch of ear piercings in both ears, as well as a septum. i used to have snakebites (holy hell my parents hated that) and nostril ring. i miss my snakebites, wish i could get them back, but it's bad for your dental health, and professionals won't take you seriously... i want an eyebrow and two nostrils, as well as a navel and more ear ones. i have one wrist tattoo. i'm horrified to let my dad know; i once said the word "tattoo" and he raged for a day and wouldn't talk to me after. there are so many tattoos i want to get and have planned out. fuck. i guess i'll do stick and poke with some needles. anyone have favorite tattoo artists?

i applied to a diff northwestern program and freaked out for a sec. apparently my program's not out yet though @MayliC i played synth in a glam rock band called kurt riley! not for too long though, just a yearish @placeinspace i don't think chicago's decisions have come out yet though. or have they? idk i haven't checked my portals for anything but northwestern as of today.

irrelevant: i just discovered most of my dark circles are caused by my eye sockets and not actually my skin/eye itself. so uh hellz yeah. try tilting your head and forget about apps completely along the way. feelz good.
