Thank you! I'm mostly interested in Greek social history, especially in population displacement and demographic studies, mainly in Archaic and Classical Greece but also Late Antiquity and Byzantium, especially late Byzantium. I generally focused on the Greece/Late Antiquity for the Classics programs and Late Antiquity/Byzantium for the History programs.

Rejected too; I'm 1a/0w/4r for Ancient History and History PhD programs this cycle. Accepted by Stanford Classics, rejected by Harvard History, Berkeley History, Yale Classics/AH, Princeton History. Yale was the last one on the list. Good luck to everyone else, both in this app season and the subsequent ones!

Yeah - it's more likely that the six acceptances have already been notified of their admission, but because it is such a small sample size we aren't seeing the results on GradCafe. I was accepted to Harvard History last year but declined the offer. I was notified by the Director of Graduate Studies through an email with my POIs cc'ed, that I would be recommended to the GSAS for admission. I was still a little nervous at the time (as if the GSAS could still refuse the recommendation) but my POI reassured me that it was formality and everyone who gets nominated by the department is all but accepted.

Hi, I was awarded an Ertegun scholarship. They notified me through email around mid-day GMT on Friday the 6th. I'm studying in a history-related field (though I guess that's not very specific given that it's a humanities scholarship). I have a friend who is doing the Ertegun right now.
