Oh goodness! I similarly thought that having a phone interview would at least lead to an alternate spot ...did the letter happen to give any reasons for rejection? Best of luck to you! Thank you for your help!

It seems like U.K. finalists should know one way or another in the next couple of days, if not tomorrow! Good luck to everyone! lmr005: Congrats on getting an alternate spot!! I have one question: is your current address the same as your permanent address?

I do not know if this is at all helpful for you, but I was officially accepted to Michigan's IPGRH last week (w/ a 5 year funding package). They then invited me to their Recruitment Weekend in March. But it does sound like each program handles admissions differently! Good luck!

If you don't mind me asking, were you accepted to Penn?

Oh well, I suppose I am not getting into Penn (I also applied to the Ph.D. in Ancient History program).

Did they send an email?
