I haven't been near my mailbox in over a week because I'm home for spring break. Ah! Though I'm sure with this abysmal app season that I'm out

Experiences with one-year MAs?

Lpbuck- lehigh, where I am now. Villanova, UConn, BC and Carnegie Mellon do tuition remission - not all MA's get aid at BC though. Brandeis does partial, I think. -
UMASS - Amherst

Nope, but I'm on the waitlist. Care to expound? -
Anyone want to cry about NYU with me?

Dorinda, do you have an MA? when I applied in 09, my consolation MA notification came out way later. -

Agreed, Trip. "That shit cray"- in the words of Jay-Z/Kanye! -
Hi eoyarbidem, the MA at Villanova in PA has a late deadline, though I'm not sure exactly when. They are funded.

I want to "like" your post, trip.

There's one post on the results board from 2011 that instills vague hope.

Wait listing is NOT the end!

Katelynn- you probably have a good chance at umass then, since you had a teaching interview. My emails from Stephen Clingman are short and sweet and do not emphasize high chances at all. Which is okay with me, for personal reasons, but encouraging for you!! -
Yay, Trip. What's with us that haven't heard? It's bizarre, my bf's status says denied & mine still says no decision. Anyone else?
-
trip, you should call! it's not fair. you're in super-limbo! though, if it doesn't matter because you have better/more appealing offers then wait it out, and laugh at the ridiculousness! haha.
-
still no rejection here. and none from rutgers either.

Hey Julianne- I don't know about CMU notifying schedule but I had a friend who did his MA there and it seemed like a good experience. Good luck! -
I think in the past they've been scattered. The DGS said mid-march...

Anyone get a rejection from here yet?

Great, I need another MA haha. Thanks, hawkeye. Do you know for sure if all accepted have been notified?
-
So I guess we're just waiting for our rejections from here by now? Seems weird not one acceptance posted.

Trip- (sorry I'm not quoting- on an iPhone) supposedy Totonno's and Grimaldi's are the best but they're not in BillyB. Only place I've eaten in Williamsburg is Peter Luger, though I've been meaning to try Sea, the Thai place. -

Oh god Cquin- goodfellas is crack. Unfortunatey they're not doing as well as they used to. The one in Brooklyn closed and there was a groupon for the one in SI- which is never a good sign. -

@trip- New Brunswick ain't bad at all! Right at the beginning of Jersey. Too bad I didn't get in, I could have actually commuted from home! -

@cquin- I'm not a pizza lover despite being a native NY-er but Denino's is pretty epic. What part of the island were you on? -

Did you get into Columbia? I can't keep track, haha. PM me if you wanna know about the good ol city. I'm from a more residential, not at all gentrified part of brooklyn and know a lot about the various boroughs.
