  1. Quick question: I recently received a FLAS Summer fellowship this month, is it worth adding to my honors and awards section this late into the app?
  2. I also applied for the predoc! Technically next year is the last year, but they will also be giving less fellowships next year. https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2022/09/20/ford-foundation-end-diverse-fellowship-program
  3. Have y'all heard back from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign? They typically send the 1st round of admissions within this week. I applied to their Hispanic linguistic program since it's one of the best.
  4. Hey, @GRADSPN1 Yes, the CUNY Grad Center! Oh well, I haven't heard back from them. I applied to the linguistics track. But I've been admitted to 8 other programs and waitlisted in 1. I'm just waiting for the grad center. How did you hear back from them?
  5. @vallejeando I have not heard from UCLA either, but I applied under the linguistics track.
  6. Yooo! I was accepted top Ohio State January 13th via email, and to Wisconsin-Madison on the 19th via email! This is for Hispanic Linguistics programs!
  7. @MillerS I'm doing great, I'm waiting to hear for 9 schools haha. To some extent it matters, but it's not the end all be all. I would argue that your fit matters more. I have heard that in some institutions, it is a requirement that is set forth by the university, and not the department. Another test that measures proficiency in SLA, is the ACTFL Oral Proficiency Interview. It's basically speaking to a register interviewer for 30 minutes. But it does cost between 100 to 200, I can't remember exactly how much. What do you mean preview day? Like a visitation day for accepted students? (VDFAC) I spoke with a student from Georgetown Uni today, and they say said they have their VDFAC in February.
  8. Angela Merkel: I'm aware, I'm just putting out there ?. Hasta no ver no creer.
  9. I received an email from the DGS at Ohio State yesterday: "Dear applicants, Thank you for submitting your application to one of the PhD programs. We are in the process of reviewing all the materials and will be making our first round of decisions within the next two weeks. I will get back in touch with you when I have more specifics about the status of your application. In the meantime, please feel free to let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!" Hopefully we get in!
  10. @Angela Merkel: Thanks for the feedback ? On the portal it says that I got accepted to the MA. It may just be how they want to word it, though idk why. After talking to grad students and faculty, I can confirm, just like you, that they offer admission to the MA & PhD separately. Here is what the letter says: "On behalf of the Department of Spanish and Portuguese of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, I am delighted to extend to you an offer of admission to the Department for graduate study in our MA/PhD program in Hispanic Linguistics beginning the fall semester of the 2022-2023 academic year...Students in Spanish’s MA/PhD program are eligible for financial support from University funded sources for a maximum of two years at the MA level and four years at the PhD level contingent upon maintaining satisfactory academic standing and acceptable progress toward completing degree requirements, as well as satisfactory employment performance, the availability of funding for the position, and the continued support of a faculty member advisor... "
  11. I applied to 10 schools for Hispanic Linguistics- UIUC, UIC, ASU, Penn State, Georgetown, Ohio State, CUNY (Grad Center), UWM, U of Albany, and UCLA. I got into UIUC's MA/PhD Program 12/20/21. It says MA/PhD on the letter of admission. However, I applied to the MA. If I end going there, I will do the MA and also the PhD. It is fully funded with a TAship, health insurance, some fees paid, and I believe I'm being considered for fellowships since I got in during the first round. I heard back via email from the DGS and graduate administrator. I will keep y'all updated.
