    I was rejected from Princeton for the PhD in Art and Archaeology today too. I was hopeful since I have two master's degrees with 4.0 gpa's (one in Art History), published research, awards, and scholarships. However, I did not get any of my degrees from Ivy League schools and am a bit over the "regular" student age. I just see the rejection as it meaning it was not the place for me. I really wanted to start on my PhD in 2022, but it looks like it might be 2023 instead. The only other school I applied to was Oxford, and I won't hear from them until later in March, but I need full funding to go there. Next year, I will definitely apply to more than two programs. Good luck everyone!

    I’m sorry to hear that - just thought I’d add the info I heard from my POI at Princeton. I got into contact with her prior to beginning an application. She recommended that I don’t apply this year because the department has a very reduced cohort and is prioritizing particular fields (profs who don’t have students). Things just sounded very dire there.

    Has anyone heard from Columbia? I am wondering if they interview all candidates or only some. 

    I had an interview there and I *think* they interview everyone they are considering :( I haven’t heard anything from them.

    Good luck!!! Just curious, for the Columbia interview, did your POI reach out or are you having a standard panel interview with the admissions committee?

    I just had it: it was done in the blink of an eye. POI wasn't present; there were 3 faculty members, one of whom I was told was filling in for the DGS. The questions were pretty general: why Columbia? Where do you see yourself fitting in here, etc.?

    Heard that Columbia usually does not do interviews, so this year is somewhat of an anomaly

    Columbia did 15 minute interviews last year too. Prior to that, they didn't systematically do them. In any event, I was the one that posted about the interview on the results thread. I have my interview today; no idea what to expect. I also interviewed at Berkeley last week but haven't yet heard from them. . . .

    Anyone know what the deal is with Harvard?

  5. Hey! I’m new here; also a finalist. I applied for arts (MPhil not PhD) and haven’t heard a rejection. Are rejections usually sent out this late? Or could I be on some wait list? Best wishes to everyone who hasn’t heard anything yet.
