I'm still waiting for a decision from UMass😢 Hope we can hear some good news this week.

Hi. Did you all receive the email from UMass? I saw some postings, but I haven't received an email, and my status in the portal has not changed yet.

Thanks for sharing. Wish you luck in your upcoming interviews!!

Hello tomato, do you mind sharing your subfield and when you received the interview invitation from UC Irvine? Thank you for the information!

Congrats to those who got the third-round interview! I didn't hear anything from Princeton, so guess I'm rejected😢 (Kinda expected though..) I also applied to Chicago, Cornell, UC Irvine, UPenn, and UC Santa Barbara but haven't heard anything yet. Just want to know whether they usually have interviews or not. Anyway, good luck to those who received the interview invitation!

I also applied to U Chicago but haven't heard anything yet

Hello! I applied to USC, UT Austin, UIUC, Wisconsin, UMASS, Brown, NYU, UCSD, and several other schools. It seems like the thread is really quiet this year. I'm just wondering if there's anyone who has received an interview invitation. I don't know whether the Communication program usually conducts interviews or not...

Sorry for my late reply. Yes, I am an international applicant. Wish everyone best of luck!

I applied to Korean Literature and Culture program.

Thanks for sharing, I wish you a good luck on your Princeton interview!

Hello, has anyone heard anything back from Stanford? I applied to PhD program and would like to know if they already sent out the interview invitations.

Hi everyone, Is anybody else applying to EALC programs this year? Good luck everyone!

Hi everyone, I'm planning to apply to Ph.D. programs this winter, mostly in East Asian studies and some in communication/media studies. I'm curious about the importance of reaching out to professors at this stage. I've heard that the practice of contacting professors varies by field, and I'm wondering whether it's a common practice in EALC or the field of communication. Is it necessary to contact faculty of interest before submitting the application? Thank you!
