Is this a joke?

Bah, ok, well thanks for the update.

Congrats to all those accepted (and waitlisted!)! I haven't heard anything from them, but was also wondering about the rejection. It would be nice if I could at least get the nice rejection email the poster mentioned.

Good point, thanks for reminding me of what the actual numbers are/could be.

So have those who have applied to UChicago given up hope? Looking at last year's results, there were only 3 accepts and 3 waitlists posted, unless I've counted wrong. There have been 2 posted this week, so do you think that will be it?

Oh man, I love this thread, and this whole board. I haven't heard anything from any programs and I'm going insane.

I am also wondering! Congrats to whoever got it. This is the first school I've applied to that has listed a result.

Hi TeamCoco, I'll send you a message.

I'm currently attending Marquette's MA program. I have a teaching assistantship which offers full tuition, $13K/year stipend, and health insurance renewable after each year (all you have to do is fill out a form to get the funding renewed). There are more TAs than there are RAs here, but I'm not sure of the price difference. I think my TA class and the TA new class this year was around 13-15 students (both MA and PhD). As a TA, you teach 3 sections of RhetComp per year. If you do apply to MU, try to get it in by the funding deadline, or if you can't, contact the DGS and/or grad school to see about the funding. There are some people here who are unfunded I think but I would not recommend that route. You can send me a message (if that's how this works, this is my first post) if you want to know more about the program.
