I see there are a few other Yale admits out there. Are you going to accept? I'm leaning toward it (the department just hired some great people and is expanding). I'd love to know who else might be there.
Hi Fellow Hopeful Linguistics PhDs
Sorry to hear about the Yale rejection. I think the 9,500 is the total number of applications to the graduate school. The department posted their numbers for last year when they had 40 applications with 3 accepted, while the graduate school numbers were more like 7,800 or something.
On a different topic, has anyone applied to/ heard anything from McGill?
