Yes, I received their rejection (from both programs I applied to) 2 weeks ago.

Thanks a lot! All the best for you too.

Hi, guys! Just writing to inform you that yesterday I have received my rejection from Upenn. Now, all my results are out and nothing is left. If all works well..I will be joining CU Boulder on Fall 2023. If anyone else here is also going to Boulder, please let me know because I would love to get in touch with you. Thanks to all of you for helping me to get through all these months of waiting without freaking out!! Wishing luck to all of you!!!

Hi, guys! Hope you are all doing fine! Just writing to inform that I got my rejection letter from UC Davis (Comp Lit). I got an email to check the portal and that was the letter. All the best to all of you!!

Hi, there! Hope you are going great despite the nervousness of these days. Just writing to update that I just got my rejection from Princeton University (EAS). And yesterday, another rejection from UC Davis (Comp Lit). Now only one left, but at least, I got one acceptance and that is all we need, right? Good luck to all of you!

Hi, guys. Just to keep you updated: yesterday night ( I am in South America) I received a rejection email from Umich - Asian Languages and Cultures program. It is a very interesting program, but I really did not feel I was a fit for it due to my research topic. Just now I checked on the portal and saw few rejections from the same program. Now more 3 results are to come. Fingers crossed!!

I also would like to know which parameters they use to choose whom to interview. Also if they interview all candidates, which I believe it is near to impossible depending on the program. IHope we can hear from the remaining universities on the first week of Feb!!

Well...in the e-mail I received it was mentioned "TA ship" (tuition fee + insurance+ stipend). And I guess on their website they also mention that the MA program is fully funded, if I not mistaken.

Contemporary China!! It sounds interesting!

Thank you, Beijing Koala! Regarding the funded MA position, if we check the UCBoulder department website we can see that most of the students doing their MA are appointed as TA or RA. Only 2 or 3 are PhD students or candidates. I am not sure about the reason, but maybe they admit students only for MA positions at first?

Congratulations!!! Yes....it is a real peace of mind having at least one acceptance, right? I also allowing myself to relax while waiting for the other results to come. By the way....are you in the Japanese or Chinese track?

Hi, Beijing Koala! I also received an email from CU Bolder with the same contents. Although I was looking for admission to their PhD course, I was offered MA position instead. However, when I attended their info sessions, I kinda felt that they really seem not to accept people directly into the PhD. I might be wrong though, but that is the impression I had. Anyways....I am very glad, but I am also eager to know about the other results!!!

Yesterday I got my rejection from Umich-Comparative Literature program and now checking at GradCafe I realized there were many rejections too. Anyways.... 4 more results are yet to come! Anxiety level rising.
