Hola @notyouraverageolé! ¿Qué tal? As I said above, we are 5 in the literature track and 3 in the linguistics track. I can't tell you if there is a kind of waiting list, but in my case I haven't rejected or accepted the offer yet. I am waiting for NYU to make a final decision. I understand that the others accepted have not rejected the offer. I take the opportunity to ask if they have had any news from NYU. From the DGS, they tell me that they are still deliberating, but I would like to know if there is any other information.

@SPGR_22 thanks for your response. Did you have a interview? I had mine the first week of February. I've been talking to the DGS and they told me that we should have news soon.
-
Hello everyone! I hope this cycle has gone well for you. In my case, I just need the resolution from NYU to finalize it. Does anyone have any information? If you know anything, I greatly appreciate the information. Best.
-
@LDGS About two weeks ago. I know the number of accepted because we had an open house last Friday. Much success with your academic path.

Hi @LDGS! How are you? You mean the Cuny GradCenter? I understand that all the offers were made (5 for the literature track and 3 for the linguistics track). I am accepted into literature pending results from NYU. Does anyone have any new information? After the interview they did not contact me again.

Hello @_flora, welcome. I am in the same situation as you in the case of Northwestern and NYU. Regarding Northwestern, it is effectively a wait-list, but designed to evaluate the offers of other programs (in my case, it is because my research project is directly related to New York, so they told me to see my options at NYU, Columbia, Princeton and Cuny before contacting them again). Speaking of NYU, I'm waiting for the interview response just like you, so if I know anything I'll let you know (I understand that the decision should be made soon). Thank you very much for the information regarding Columbia LAIC, I suppose I will be rejected because they did not call me for an interview. Good luck in your applications.

Hi all. I hope that this process is going well and that the anxiety is gradually decreasing. I write to comment that I was accepted in Tulane and Cuny (literature track). Tulane was notified by mail and Cuny by website. I hope this information helps those who are interested in these programs. As an international student, I would like your thoughts on the programs and the cost of living in New York. Thanks so much for any help.

Hi @Anhelé. I don't know if this comment will help because I don't know if this is what you mean, but together with another member of this group we were interviewed about two weeks ago. Is that what you mean? Or do you want to know when they will give the answer to the interview? I hope to help in something

Hi @vallejeandohow are you? In my experience everything went well. It was a nice talk and I was able to say everything I wanted about my interests and the program. I don't have high expectations because apparently we were 15 persons interviewed and there are only 4 places. However, after the business day was over, my POI wrote to tell me that we had many interests and problems in common and that the interview went well. How was your experience?
-
@GSHopeful1 I just saw the good news you shared the other day. Congratulations and I hope you are very happy at this time. Just out of curiosity, considering you got accepted into amazing programs like Michigan, what option are you thinking of accepting?
-
@Lolahola Hello. I would be very happy to discuss Friday's interview with Princeton and help us through the process. I'm sure everything will work out with UPenn.

@smgr Like my other interviews, this one was entirely in Spanish (I mention this because it seems like an important issue to me, since I don't feel very comfortable speaking English). It was with professors from the faculty and, although the block was scheduled for 20-30 minutes, we were between 40 and 50. It was a great interview in the sense that they recommended readings, commented on my research proposal and told me why they considered that NYU could be a good fit for me. So if you get called for an interview, everything should be fine. Just stay confident in your own ideas. Good luck!

@smgr Hello! I hope everything is going well in this process. Indeed NYU already interviewed me this week. They told me that the results will be in two weeks. Any questions or advice with the process at NYU I can help with my experience in the interview. In my case, Columbia Laic has not contacted me either, it is the only university that has not told me anything. If I have new news I will report it here.
-
@GSHopeful1 Congratulations! What a great news. They haven't called me, I guess it could be a bad sign, but I don't lose hope. How long ago did they call you? only for curiosity.
-
Hello again. In another section of GradCafe, someone said that he was rejected by Northwestern without an interview. Was anyone notified of the acceptance? I have not had any change. Also, let me tell you that NYU wrote me for an interview next Tuesday.
-
@GSHopeful1Thank you very much for the reply. I hope everything went well in the interview. Also, for those who are interested, I was contacted by CUNY (I am an applicant for the Literature track) for an interview next Thursday. I hope all is going well for you.

Hello again. Next week I have the Princeton interview and I'm a little anxious. Did anyone have their interview this week? I appreciate any advice. I also noticed that some had interviews with Northwestern. Have they communicated their results? Nothing for me at the moment. Good luck!
-
Thanks a lot! I hope all goes well in your case. Two important things from my experience, at least so far. Although the emails indicate that the interviews will be in English and Spanish, I only spoke Spanish on Wednesday. Also, although the email indicated that the interview would last 20 minutes, we spent approximately 50 minutes talking. I think that the fundamental thing is to know the SOP thoroughly and to argue in favor of it. Much success!

Hello again. I am writing in case anyone is applying to the Tulane University program. They wrote to me for an interview on Monday, January 24. Does anyone have any news from Columbia Laic or NYU?
-
Yes, on January 19. They said the results would be in the first week of February. Best wishes to all.
-
Thanks a lot! I am Latin American and I did both my undergraduate and master's degrees in Latin America (that's why my english is poor). However, my three LORs are from academics with studies in the United States and England. I think that is helping me.
-
LOL. I just uploaded the post and Princeton writes to me. They call me for an interview on February 4. If someone else is in this position we could cheer each other up and get through the anxiety together haha. Hugs

Hi all! I join the post. I am applying to Columbia LAIC, NYU, Princeton, Cuny, Northwestern, and Tulane. Like some I study Latin American literature, with an emphasis on the southern cone. I am not going to expand on my CV but if someone wishes we can talk more. At the moment I have only received news from Northwestern on January 18 to be interviewed on January 19. The interview was supposed to take 20 minutes but we were approximately 45. I was told that the admission offers at Northwestern probably will not decrease or increase compared to last year. If I have more news, I will share it with you. Good luck to all.
