Greetings! I'm another medievalist lurking about the forum, too! I'm focusing on Gothic architecture, especially in the Crusader States. I applied to the following programs: Rice- Linda Neagley/Shirine Hamadeh UMich- Achim Timmermann/Christiane Gruber MIT- Nasser Rabbat UNC-Chapel Hill- Glaire Anderson UPenn- Ousterhout/Maxwell/Holod UT-Austin- Holladay/Mulder I have a BA in Art History and History and am currently completing my MA in Art History. I was admitted to Rice University and have yet to hear from the 5 other programs. Best of luck!

Hi Melissa, I received a letter today (postmarked 1/31) from Rice with an offer of admission. While I am on a "short wait list for funding", they are flying me down on 3/11 for recruitment weekend. Cyriac, THANK YOU for offering your assistance! If I decide to attend Rice, I will be in touch! I hope all is well and wish you both the best of luck!

Yeah, it's a little early. She did say they will be finalizing their short list of 8-10 applicants soon. Once that is done, they fly those lucky people down for a recruitment visit. I think they're looking to admit four fully-funded students but are waiting on approval from their Dean. Best of luck! PS: what is your specialization?

I applied to Rice. I've been in touch with their medievalist/DGS and am very excited. They began reviewing apps on Friday and she called me this afternoon! Good luck!
