  1. Hi all! I have accepted my offer to the joint Ph.D. program in English and Education at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor!
  2. I was accepted to UMass Amherst off the waitlist and I declined the offer; I hope one of you gets it (if you wanted it, of course!)
  3. Hey y'all! I hope everyone is doing ok! I know this has been a stressful cycle. I am visiting UMich and Michigan State this weekend-- anyone else considering these?
  4. Just got the awaited UCI rejection! I hope everyone is holding up ok!
  5. @zetasp Of course! I received a phone call from my POI January 20th, and I received official emails the next week. It's for the Joint PhD in English and Education. Let me know if you need any more info-- I will be rooting for you!
  6. UCI people! I'm assuming all the interviews are out? I don't know what to think. I hope this weeks brings happy news for y'all! I just want to be free lol
  7. Just got an email from UMass letting me know I have been waitlisted! If anyone was still waiting to hear from them, maybe you will hear back shortly? Hope you are all holding up! This week is insane!
  8. @Cordelipup I am waiting on UCI as well! I've been so antsy this week about it. Also, congrats to everyone hearing good news! If you are still waiting, I'm sending out all the positive vibes for you!
  9. Sending out positive thoughts and prayers for everyone waiting!
  10. Hi everyone! I hope you're all doing well! I received a phone call at 4pm from the University of Michigan and was accepted into the Joint PhD program in English and Education! Again, not sure if anyone applied to this program as well, but if so, you may be hearing back sooner than anticipated!
  11. @sadevilminion I had to shorten my writing sample as well! I ended up taking some portions out from the middle so that I still had a logical ending to the paper. What also helped me was adding a short abstract to the beginning explaining the gist of the paper (some of the schools asked for this specifically). I'm not sure if that's standard and it's also a bit counterintuitive, but it made me feel less concerned about the chunks I took out!
  12. Hey everyone! Just an update--I just received an acceptance email from Michigan State for the doctoral program in Writing, Rhetoric, and American Cultures! I don't think anyone else on here applied there, but I figured I would share some happy news. I hope all of you are doing well and that the apps (and interview @niamhhh) are going smoothly!
  13. @illcounsel Congratulations! I'm still working on three ? As scary as it is to wait, major kudos for being done with the first step! Wishing you the best of luck!
  14. Hey all, I hope everyone is holding up ok! I'm not sure if anyone here is also applying to Michigan State/ has applied to Michigan State in the past? I don't think I've seen anyone post about it in this forum. ? I was just curious because I found data here on GradCafe showing they sometimes get back to students within a couple weeks of the deadline 12/1 (at least the Rhet/Writing PhD program does) and I'm nervous/ not sure how accurate that is? ?
  15. Hi everyone! I was directed to this forum by @Sigaba (thank you!) This is my first time applying doctoral. I'm applying to 4 Phd programs in Rhet/Comp, which concerns me a bit ? My research interests are global Englishes, FYW, and antiracist writing pedagogy. I applied to Michigan State yesterday (I'm already second-guessing every aspect of my application) and am in the process of applying to U Mich Ann Arbor, U Mass Amherst, and UCI. I'm not sure what to expect, but I'm really excited just to have begun the process!
