Hi everyone. I am wondering if anyone here has made an official decision on where they will be attending gradate school? I am curious to hear how everyone's admission cycle went/is going etc.
Hi! I ended up taking an offer at Yale's PhD in FMS. It was my #1, so I accepted pretty much immediately.

I didn't get any email or portal update either! Maybe they're sending them in rounds?

Ah ok! Thanks for the info, so they've sent out unofficial acceptances then? Alas! I thought my interviews went well, but trying not to take it too hard because of course it's an insanely competitive program :')
I guess so? They invited me to the zoom event and I asked to make sure it wasn't a mistake and they said it wasn't, I should definitely attend, and the letters are on the way. So I guess that's an unofficial acceptance. Of course so many factors go into who they can take, especially with the joint department model. Making the shortlist is a huge accomplishment!

anyone hear from Yale FMS? heard nothing since my interview 2 weeks ago so i'm sure it's an implied rejection, but I just wish they would put me out of my misery and send the official rejection...
Hey! There's a zoom event tomorrow for new admits in FMS. There's a delay in sending out the official letters apparently.

I don't think GRE matters for UPenn this year. I believe your writing sample values more. I did not submit mine either. Also waiting to hear from UPenn.
On results board looks like someone was admitted and had an interview prior. Guessing the rejections are soon to come.

Anyone heard anything from UPenn? Haven't heard anything about interviews.
Out of curiosity, does GRE make a difference? I got 167 verbal 165 math and 4.5 AW. I only submitted where it was required bc I felt like only my verbal was good and even then doesn't add much – I feel like you can tell I have adequate verbal abilities from my transcript/writing samples. Plus they charge per school. However, I'm finding that I'm getting a better response from where I did submit my scores even though they're nothing special. What do you all think?

Heard from Princeton today, got rejected.
-
seems like Brown MCM decisions came out! Did anyone get admitted? Looks like a ton of rejections on the results page. I got rejected as well ?

Got a message from the DGS at the Yale film and media studies asking for a short zoom interview.
I also got the same request!

Hi all! Got a zoom request yesterday from Yale for FMS/Art History dual phd with the film studies DGS. I also had a zoom chat with a Columbia art history professor mid-December, which was kind of awkward (I tend to get very nervous on zoom even though I prepared for it pretty excessively haha). Both have been framed more as an opportunity for me to ask questions than for them to ask me about my application or do what would be typical interview questions and are brief. Neither used the word "interview" either. The PhD application process never ceases to confound me but hopefully we'll all have results soon!
