Sorry for the tardy reply- I haven't checked this forum in a really long time- but, yes! I loved the department!

Congrats Eidda!

No way to tell... and no respite for us...

Seriously! The investment in applications in no joke! I'm an Andrei Bely fan, as you might have guessed.

hey maceochi, to answer your question from a while back, people generally apply to several programs because the factors determining why a program chooses one qualified applicant over another in a given year can be pretty unpredictable from the prospective student's stand point. But, of course, it only takes one acceptance!

Good luck, you guys! Karen-- congrats! I hope your wait list converts... My application season has extended into march too...

Good luck cml!!!

Yes, congrats to the Yale admit! I'm a bit confused because I was invited to visit campus after my Skype interview- and I'm set up to go next week- but I haven't heard anything about admission/rejection from them yet....Have I been uninvited? I definitely don't want to waste a day off visiting a school that plans on rejecting me. What gives Yale?...I sense some really awkward e-mails coming up.

Sorry to hear that Eidda.

First acceptance! So happy and relieved!

Yeah, I'm starting to get anxious again too...

Congrats renwod and good luck! I actually just had my first interview so I can confirm- we mostly spoke in English but we did switch to Russian for a bit.

My understanding (from the experience of some of my friends, since I've yet to have my first interview) is that they are primarily conducted in English, although you might also be asked to meet with one of the language instructors to assess your fluency level. Does this mean you have an interview renwod? I hope so!

Two more interviews! This feels surreal...

That's great Eidda! I was also asked to apply for FLAS....do you know anything about the essay? I'm a bit unsure of what exactly is expected.
