Congrats, Rubose! You thinking of attending?

I was admitted to UCLA. Found out yesterday

Any word on UCLA?

It would be nice to not have to worry about funding after the first year... I'd go for Harvard if the difference is marginal.

I hate to state the obvious, but there's always Brandeis: http://www.brandeis.edu/gsas/

I did interview at Oxford a few weeks ago. I was told we wouldn't hear until mid-late March on a decision. But funding for Americans is nearly impossible unless you have a 4.0 from Harvard and are curing cancer. So we'll see.

things i've heard: UCLA: I was told my Bob Fink last week that they are having their meeting and I should hear in about 2 weeks, aka about a week from today (for musicology). Columbia: I did not aplpy, but my friend got a call asking if he was still interested. But no formal offer. Just in general: Different universities work differently re: admissions. Some, like (as far as I know) Chicago, accept their first round, see if they accept the offer, then work down a list, not rejecting people till they have the numbers they want. Other schools, like Berkeley, pick who they want (this year it was 5 acceptances), then reject the rest. If only 3 accept the offer, so be it, they don't let anyone else in.

Did anyone apply to Oxford or other UK universities for musicology?
