  1. Meeting w/ Prof Williams tomorrow to nail it down, but I plan to take 786 as well and 802, the writing seminar, the sharpen up my rusty skills!
  2. So, who's excited for school? I am getting very anxious to start with all the emails from GSHAAA. So, is it true the first rule of GradCafe is there is no GradCafe?
  3. This may be a "stupid" question, but other than funding available at my program, I haven't really seen too much outside funding. Am I looking in the wrong places? I've applied for and received loans for this coming school year (my first in the graduate program), but I would very much like to apply for outside funding to make post-graduate life a little less financially bleak. Has anyone discovered any good sources for outside funding that they would be willing to share? My general concentration, at least for now (I hear that often times interests change once you are in the programs) is 19th c. French and American painting. Thanks in advance.
  4. I honestly love Boston. I live in Somerville but work in Boston so I feel like I've gotten to know the city pretty well while also enjoying a more neighborhoody living situation. Have you considered where you would like to live in Boston?
  5. I did! Sadly, no funding (as I expected), but I am thrilled to be going. Looking forward to meeting you all.
  6. ...And here we are, a day before "D-day." Any news on anyone else's end? I haven't heard.
  7. Emailed Prof. Ribner again today: "I am grateful for your patience. A final answer should be forthcoming within a week." I wonder if they are waiting to hear from some people who HAVE been offered funding to see if they will attend or not? If not, then maybe they will distribute funding to others...
  8. Sigh, is anyone still waiting to hear about funding? I am not expecting it at this point, but I want to start planning either way!
  9. Hey! I've been meaning to reply to your message, but i am in NY with only my ipad, which for some reason refuses to let me type you a real message. I'll update you soon! (I am actually in the IFA building right now--it's gorgeous.)

  10. Have they let you know about funding yet? I don't want to formally accept until I know all the details.
  11. I plan to formally accept by next week. See you all there!
  12. I plan to formally accept at BU very soon
  13. To clarify, Georgetown's program DOES include museum internships, and there is no longer a thesis (though you have the option to write a serious paper, if you wish). Both the 1st and the 3rd semesters include internships in D.C. I was looking at the program for this fall, but I DO want to go on to a PhD eventually and after speaking with several students decided that it was not as academically inclined as I wished--a wonderful program, but more suited for those who are interested in art business or working in museums not as curators.
