  1. I came across a number of acceptances from the Stony Brook PhD English Program for the year 2012. My question is are all the acceptances/rejections over and done with? Does Stony Brook aanounce PhD results on rolling basis or on one day? Any feedback / opinion will be welcome.
  2. Hi, Heard anything about phd English admissions (literary theory)? Its MID MARCH ALMOST? *sigh*
  3. Hello, Is there any student who is currently studying at the ucsd literature department. I have a few queries and will be very grateful if i get a response. thanks.
  4. Hello, I am a Pakistani college teacher with an MPhil in English literature and a Masters in ELT (English language teaching). I am interested in applying for a PhD in English at UCSD. I have four years of college teaching experience and good GPA's. My GRE score is 540 v 460 maths and 5.5 in AWA (not very good I know). Do i stand a chance for admission. (Please give honest feedback even if its discouraging) Plus, the languages I know besides English is Urdu (and a regional language Punjabi). I am interested in working on Asian/ South Asian literature basically. Is it a problem that i dont meet 2nd language requirements of most universities? I am confused because half the programmes talk about french, german and what not.... any feedback from a current UCSD student will be immensely useful.(I am intending to apply for 2012)
  5. and I have started contacting professors specially the ones interested in working on inter-cultural literature.
  6. thanks a lot. cant re-appear for GRE. IT TRAUMATIZES ME!!!! and i find writing essays way easier than the verbal JUGGLING.
  7. Pakistan doesnt have internationally recognized places that offer Phd in English literature. I was keen to update my qualification, so did this headless chicken run. The ELT degree was basically something that facilitated me to get a college faculty position. My undergraduate degree is a 1st division.
