Could you PM me the link as well? Thank you!

Megan Luke and Kate Flint. What about you?

Maybe it's just their top choice candidates for now and the rest of us will be considered at the beginning of the year. I'm hoping, anyway... Did anyone else on this forum hear from them?

I haven't heard anything. This is making me freak out a little bit, though. Do you know when they were contacted?

If you graduated six years ago and have been working in an art-related field the entire time, would your undergraduate GPA matter as much? I'm asking for myself...Thanks!

Hi everyone-- I've begun contacting some of the professors I am interested in working with but haven't heard back from most of them. Is this typical? Has anyone else been experiencing this as well? Thank you!

If so, are you submitting materials by November 1?

Hi anonymousbequest-- Thank you for the information. Can you be more specific regarding the idiosyncrasies at Washington U?

Hi 2013app, It seems like so many great professors are retiring this year Where are you applying to? I've altered my list considerably since my initial post. I'm trying to find two "easier" programs to get into but I'm having a hard time with it.

Hi 2013app: Yes, I LOVE Carol Armstrong's work and am very familiar with Manet/Manette! I applied a few years back to Yale's program and didn't get in, however, so I am looking into other programs for this round. Thanks for the suggestion, though! Does anyone know if Abigail Solomon-Godeau is still teaching at UCSB? I would imagine that she is about ready to retire, but if anyone has heard otherwise please let me know. I'm planning on sending her an e-mail but may not hear from her... Thanks!

Thank you for the advice, this is all very helpful! I'll definitely look into the Michigan and Berkeley programs a bit more. Also, good to know that the gallery work won't hinder me. I was nervous since it's a contemporary art gallery and I want to study 19th c. art. Thanks again!

Hi everyone, I'm applying to programs with an interest in 19th century European art (specifically French and German). I've narrowed my list of schools down to the following, but was wondering if anyone had any other suggestions? UChicago: Martha Ward Northwestern: Hollis Clayson Duke: Patricia Leighten Chapel Hill: Mary Sheriff CUNY: Patricia Mainardi IFA-NYU: Linda Nochlin Stanford: Michael Marrinan I majored in Art History in UG, and wrote my thesis on a painting by Manet. Since graduating I have been been working at a prominent art gallery (5 years now)...Not sure how much this will hurt my chances. Any advice is much appreciated! Thank you!
