I think that was just for arch track, but each subfield probably only gets one. Yeah it makes you feel a bit better that its pretty hard for international students to get that funding lol
Advice in general or for Toronto in particular?
Advice in general. I reached out and talked to several POIs, and the conversations did go well, though none of them ended up panning out this go around. I guess it just feels weird to have to do all this again.

Hi all!
Acceptances: UC Davis, UC Berkeley, University of Oregon
Rejected: University of Toronto (got waitlisted but ultimately rejected)
I'm arch track so can only talk for that side, since they seem to do things differently between subfields. For those who applied to Toronto as international students, they only accept one person so don't feel down about rejection! I believe UCD have sent out their acceptances already but I'm unsure about their waitlist so maybe some hope there! I also didn't interview with Berkeley if that helps with people who haven't heard back yet.
Hello! For Toronto, would that have been 1 international student total, or just for the archaeology track? I remember reading about the department accepting 4 international students, though that was for a different year. I do feel better knowing my odds were pretty stiff lol.
If anyone has any advice about going through the application process again though, I would love to hear it!

Yes. Because they said that results will come in the end of this month... I think I will wait until Monday... And another question, do you think that interviews are super important during the process? I don't know what to wait about it...
Toronto did you hear something? I got wait-list. International student so .. expected
Oh when did you hear that you got waitlisted? I know that news of some sort will come in "early March" for all the Toronto applicants.
Also do you mind sharing which track? I'm archaeology.

I did too! They responded saying: "We will be sending offers on a continuous basis over the next few weeks and all applicants will be notified of their result by early-March."
Now I am not sure if the interviews are already conducted or that there are no interviews.
I received the same response. I don't think that there are formal interviews for Toronto, though I did speak with a POI before applying.

I'm also waiting on news from Toronto as an International student. I emailed the Admissions office for the School of Graduate Studies this morning inquiring about the status of my application, which I'm hoping isn't considered rude or anything. No response yet, but I'll post when they reply, if that comes before the official decisions are released.

Thank you so much! This is very useful and it really helped me understand what kind of game plans I should be considering. I don't have field experience in the specific area I was interested in, though it is the focus of my MA thesis, and I have fieldwork in other places. I knew that was a weak aspect of my application, but hopefully I can address it this summer. In hindsight, given what you've said, I think my statements could have been stronger too. This is great advice, again, thank you.
