  1. I was wondering the same, especially because it seems like a lot of rejections went out today. Trying not to get my hopes up!
  2. Hah, no problem. Best of luck on all your applications!
  3. Lol, see my signature, on the post you quoted. If that still doesn't help it was a rejection.
  4. Got my letter from Berkeley last night, so glad that I don't sleep with my phone in my room and keep all notifications on Do Not Disturb 24/7 because if I saw it, I probably would not be able to stop myself from checking it. This is probably good news for all who haven't heard from them yet but keep your head up no matter what!
  5. Can I ask what programs you applied to? I also have an interest in Media Studies but am currently majoring in English so I mostly kept to English PhDs with faculty members in my area.
  6. It seems that so far UPenn has done interviews, though it's unclear if they have sent out rejections yet, same hat with Princeton. Brown has conducted interviews but has actually sent out some rejections. I haven't heard anything at all. I was actually surprised to hear that interviews were already happening. I am very close to a core faculty member at my institution's English department (which I didn't apply to) and they say there's still a lot to be done before decisions of any kind are sent out.
  7. i applied to one american studies program, did you apply to any MAs or only PhDs?
  8. hi, i am a bit late to the forum game.. i have already submitted all my applications as of december 15. i will probably be quasi-active on this forum in order to avoid talking about this constantly to my friends (who do not deserve to hear that and also do not want to). i applied to nine programs (got fee waivers for eight of them); mostly to English programs (especially more interdisciplinary ones) but some programs in rhetoric/modern culture/media studies etc which are more suited to my research interests. i write about automatons mostly so everything from monsters to puppets to robots/artificial intelligence, with a focus on the intersection of gender and labor. i am actually still in undergrad so was applying for programs while i was (and am) a full-time student + writing my senior thesis, which is still in progress obviously. i am really hoping these decisions don't put a damper on my senior spring but here's to hoping! what programs did people apply to this cycle?
