Good luck!

Welcome, prospective linguist! I highly recommend Language Instinct by Steven Pinker. It's more interesting than some intro Lx books. I like Pinker's attitude and insights into linguistics!

Great Job!! Congrats

I love Berkeley. I hope I can get into

Thank you for being supportive!!! Maybe I am too nervous.

Hi, Did anyone get the interview invites from CMU SLA program? I guess they should send out the invites at this time based on the threads of last year. I am so freaking out. I check my email hundreds of times every day, but no news was sent in.

I applied to applied linguistics Ed.D program in TC, anxiously waiting for the results Good luck, everyone.

O.K. I am out

What program did u apply for

I saw it. But I didn't receive anything from Penn.

I totally agree! I am in Philly now. I do love this city, especially old city, and south street.

Congrats! Great Job

I applied for NYU, Columbia,UC Berkeley, UCLA, Harvard. I am pretty much nervous about the results.

Great! You still have the big chance to get in. I applied for educational linguistics phd at Penn GSE. I didn't hear anything from the adcom

Yes! I totally agree with you. It is hard for international students. Hope that we can make it!

Hi Spitz, I am also from China. Good to see you in this forum

I applied for Language Literacy and Culture PhD program at Berkeley. The deadline was Dec 3rd. Did anyone hear anything from the admissions committee?

I'm freaking out!! I applied for both theoretical linguistics and applied linguistics in Fall 2011. Theoretical Linguistics: MIT, Yale, Harvard Applied Linguistics: Stanford, Penn, Columbia, UC Berkeley, UCLA, Boston U, CMU (SLA), NYU GRE:670V+800Q+5AWA TOEFL:116 Undergraduate (Top 5 in China), Major: English (Business), GPA 3.5 Major GPA 3.8 Graduate (Ivy school in the U.S), Major: TESOL, GPA 3.98 four letters of recommendation (two linguistics professor, one stats professor, one supervisor from internship) no publications four smallish regional conference presentations (pertaining to language acquisition, heritage language acquisition, language assessment) two-year research experience with two professors in the U.S (one is doing second language acquisition, the other one is doing sociolinguistics) one-year internship, research on cross-lingual syntax-semantics interface at one prestigious research-oriented linguistics center two writing samples (final papers of two graduate courses), but both are about applied linguistics. As an international student, I am pretty nervous about getting in nowhere.....I am in China for winter holiday and I'll be back on 10th to finish up my master's thesis and WAIT for the results of my application . Anyway, good luck, linguists.

Anyone will apply for Educational Linguistics Fall 2011? I would like to apply for Educational Linguistics at Penn GSE, Stanford, UCLA, TC-Columbia

Hi, I am a newcomer. I am international student, now studying in the States and I will apply for fall 2011 applied linguistics PhD study.
