Ah, I just got the email from UT that I have been waitlisted! A little annoying but so much better than outright rejection. I had already given up hope because I never had an interview.
Did anyone else get waitlisted?
I'm so sorry to hear about USCB. I hope your applications turn out better.
I was also probably rejected from UT because I did not receive an interview invite.
Hey, I'm so sorry for the very late reply!
I applied to the Digital Media interest. I was told by a faculty member there that they receive the fewest number of applicants for Digital Media.
Have you heard back from any of your other programs?
Hi everyone. I posted here and even made a thread a long time ago, but then I lost all my stored passwords and couldn't reset the one for this account for some reason... Oh well, at least I was finally able to remember it.
How is everyone?
I'm pretty devastated that someone got an interview with UT today. I still have not heard anything.
I would hope that you being an international applicant would help your chances, especially since US schools generally value diversity of experience/thought, even at the PhD level.
Out of the ones you have applied to, I have also applied to UT Austin. May I ask to which emphasis you applied? I am also very nervous, mostly because I did not feel my writing sample was very strong...
Hi. I know someone already made a thread for 2022 film and media studies applicants, but it was created a while ago and it doesn't look like it is receiving much attention, so I thought I would make a new thread.
To which schools are you applying? How do you feel about your application thus far? What are your research interests?
I am not applying to very many schools because I am struggling to find programs that fit my interests. I am very nervous about my few applications.
