Yeah, whenever I look at the ratio of applicants to accepted applicants it seems pretty silly to apply to CL. English or French might have been a better bet for me. But if I were to be lead by rational calculation I would probably not want to go to grad school. I do modernisms and postcolonialisms in the anglophone and francophone worlds. Also translation theory. I speak English, French and Dutch and I can read Italian, Latin, Greek and German with varied proficiency.

Origin=Goal, did they ask to switch you from or to CL?

Starlajane, I suspect you are right about January interviews. But I'm not worried. There are five whole days of January left, and who's to say that they won't agree to fund me for five years without even a telephone interview?

Wow. That's early. Well done to the Buffalo acceptees! What's particularly exercising me at the moment, despite the fact hat we can do nothing to hurry anything along, is the question of which programs do interviews. So, for Cornell, to choose a not-so-random example, we know that they usually accept the 1st batch some time around mid-Feb, but we do not know if and when those people got interviewed.

Good. That's t least 3 of us. I think it would be good to gather info about CL programs in one space, since the deadlines, interviews, and notification dates are usually different to English. So far Emory has invited people for interviews. Do we know anything about other programs?

Where are all the complitteurs this year?
