  1. Also admitted 3/18/21. If anyone knows about any Facebook, Slack, or other online communities I can join to connect with the Fall 2021 cohort or current students/alumni, please hm
  2. Hi @Beezy! I don't know anything about norms/procedures for graduate admissions. But sounds like it's unclear what your relationship is to faculty. Would you consider your outreach "just contact," informational interview, or building rapport. Seems like a sliding scale, and it's hard for me to gauge. I have had short email correspondence with one professor from Michigan who responded promptly that his research will continue but will probably not receive funding for assistantships. Sorry I don't have much to help out, but I wish you luck!
  3. Definitely applied to Michigan with that program + funding combo in mind. When I looked into Carnegie Melon, Georgia Tech, University of Washington, University of Indiana Bloomington -- it just didn't make sense to drop 80k. Now I'm thinking, do I try Rochester, Drexel, DePaul? Do I wait for next year's cycle? Right now I'm banking on Michigan.
  4. I was wondering how COVID would affect admissions processes. (Fewer staff? More applications to process? Remote procedures?) So far, I've applied just to University of Michigan for a masters in Human-Computer Interaction. 3.62 GPA from Florida State University with a degree in English (Editing, Writing, and Media). 4 years of experience teaching K-12 in Madrid. Great letters of rec, a few interesting service/experience (learning) design projects in my portfolio. Looking to apply to other schools.
