  1. Hi, Conswrtng! Nice "meeting" you! I have never talked to another Brazilian here. This site is very helpful. I've been here since I applied to the MA in 2020 :) Keep me posted about your apps. I hope you get in!
  2. I'm so really sorry to hear that, hsyg6182 šŸ„ŗ Don't give up. Try different schools next year!
  3. No, but I emailed Ms. Moon and she told me that I was waitlisted because they received over 150 applications. It's very odd; I don't know anyone who was admitted. I'm glad you'll join NC State. Congrats!!!!
  4. Hi! Does your portal still say ā€œunder program review?ā€ If it does, youā€™ve probably been waitlisted.
  5. Yes! I got an early admission from my the university I currently do my MA. Iā€™ve also been admitted to ASU.
  6. Did you get in? šŸ¤žšŸ» Update: sorry I only now read the post below. Iā€™m sorry you didnā€™t get in My research also mixes different fields such as Applied Linguistics and Technology.
  7. Francienolan, nothing from Maryland. My status still says "under program review."
  8. I applied to the Ph.D. in TLPL (LLSI), but I haven't heard anything from them, I mean, Kay Moon told me they would finalize the decisions and notify the admitted guys before February ends. Let's see, it's Feb 22 today. I'm not so concerned about it because I was admitted to other programs, and I will continue in my university (UIUC).
  9. I wouldnā€™t say this is s rejection phrase. I know my advisor says it to everyone after he interviews them. My advisor is the director of my program, so Iā€™d say itā€™s a pretty standard phrase that doesnā€™t mean much!
  10. Iā€™m glad you were interviewed by Maryland. Did you apply for the Applied Linguistics and Language Education Ph.D. in the College of Education or did you apply for the Ph.D. in Linguistics in the Department of Linguistics? Congratulations on your admittance to Ohio!
  11. Hi, Iā€™m glad you started this discussion. I applied to 3 programs, but I only heard from the university Iā€™m currently doing my masterā€™s. UIUC - accepted University of Maryland - Nothing yet. Arizona State - Nothing yet.
  12. 1. Yes! We usually have assistantships here. 2. Well, we don't make a lot of money here, but it's enough for me and my family (my wife and two kids). Most programs pay "decent" stipends. 3. It's usually simple. You'll need a statement of purpose, recommendation letters, resume, writing sample, and some cases GRE. Hope it helps!
  13. Hi @AnxiousBeaver! Iā€™m so really sorry, I only saw it today. I ended up negotiating my funding with Illinous. Iā€™m in my second semester here! Itā€™s not an easy program ? What about you? Howā€™s grad school going?
  14. Hi guys! As you know, I was accepted to the University of Illinois and the University of Alabama. I already accepted Illinoisā€™s offer, but I can change my decision until April 15th. If you guys had to choose between these two outstanding universities, which one would you choose? Illinois: Stipend: USD 12,738 Health insurance: partial Proof of funding: USD 24,000 (for myself + dependents) Sponsor: a friend of mine, an American citizen. - - - Alabama Stipend: USD 14,364 Health insurance: full coverage Proof of funding: USD 16,036 (because I have 3 dependents - if it were only me, I would need to show proof of funding of USD 1,036) Loomis Scholarship funding (book aid): USD 800 Sponsor: I wouldnā€™t need a sponsor at the UA. I can use my own funds. Iā€™m curious to know which one you guys would choose.
  15. Guys! I have awesome news (again)! ? I was officially accepted to the University of Alabama. Iā€™m really happy, even thought Iā€™ve already said YES to Illinois ?
  16. Thanks, VLE! Iā€™ve just talked to someone in my department and they told me Iā€™ll have to show a proof of funding of US$24,241 ? Iā€™m not happy with that. I dunno what Iā€™m going to do.
  17. Sorry, I only saw it now. Yes, I received my funding offer even before. The head of the department emailed me to say I had been awarded financial support in the form of at 33% time Teaching Assistantship for the academic years of 2021-2022 and 2022-2023. I couldnā€™t be happier. I am now only concerned about the proof of funding because I have three dependents, but I havenā€™t received any emails from Illinois talking about it. I emailed the program director today, but he said he doesnā€™t know much about this kind of thing, so he forwarded my message to grad services. The information about proof of funding is available on their website, but I donā€™t know if it applies to teaching assistants as well. USD $ 24,000 for 3 depends is a lot of money.... letā€™s see what they say! The open house was yesterday... it was awesome! ?
