Hey, thanks for the reply! I've been admitted and had just accepted the offer, and was just wondering if there was anyone else here who would be joining me in the cohort

Wondering if anyone here has accepted an offer for Communication & Culture at York/Ryerson?

Haha, he definitely won't throw it in the trash! If its really eating away at you, it won't hurt to send a polite quick inquiry. But I think he'll probably just tell you the admissions process is still underway

I recommend waiting until perhaps the end of February. I think it's still quite early in the process, taking into consideration delays due to the pandemic, so emailing now probably won't yield any useful new information, and might only result in extra stress. I know its incredibly difficult, but try to distract yourself for at least a few days, and try to not visit this forum as much if its causing you stress! I know that grad cafe is terrible for my mental health personally.

Hi Guys! I'm new applicant to the Comm field (switching over from STS), and I've been lurking this thread for a bit and thought I'd join in on the suffering. I hope everyone is surviving, and keeping in mind that as much as it can seem like grad admissions are a matter of life and death, this is just a small part of the amazing lives you will all lead.

Yes, I'm fully prepared for rejection--I'd just like it to be official so I can move on

Has anyone heard from Harvard History of Science by chance?

Thank you so much for replying!! And congrats

@spacealienphilosophy Haha, me too (and having a heart attack over every new email notification) Good luck to everyone! If the person who was admitted sees this, would you mind sharing what your sub field is?

@spacealienphilosophy Nope, haven't heard anything at all. Seems that we have similar research interests then Wow that's quite a large cohort size! Do you know anything about how many applicants they tend to get? I was under the impression that there only about 40 of us HOS people, so that would make the admission rate quite high.

Haha it's actually my top choice for that reason! That, plus the fact that they're strong in my area (20th C). In regards to a POI, I spoke briefly to Matthew Hersch. How about you? I'm afraid I have no idea about their admission numbers! It's quite a large department, so I imagine they must admit slightly more students than, say, Princeton HOS

Hi everyone! @Anama I too am waiting on harvard history of science. I made an account here today to unleash some of my anxiety lol
