No I haven't. But the website says teaching for 4 semesters. What's your area of research? Mine is Central-East Asia cross cultural exchange

I heard all are sent out today. 20+

Thank you Josh! No I didn't receive an interview request. The email arrived at my inbox less than an hour ago. But it is not official, as it states. Campus visit is March 1-3.

I just got the Yale admission! So happy!

I am also eager to know more from the Columbia admits! In 2014 and 2013 Columbia sent out acceptances in the 1st week of Feburary. But now it seems the notifications are sent a week earlier. Does it mean that those who haven't yet heard back from Columbia only stand a slim chance? Have the impression that Columbia doesn't do wait list .... So stressful!

Thank you for your encouragement! Oh yes I fret a lot ... I have applied to Yale and Princeton (and others), both seem to have formal interviews in the past. Best wishes to everyone!

I haven't received any news, good or bad, from any school. I am really anxious to see that some schools that I have applied have sent out interview emails! How sad I've got none! Does it mean I am out of the game if I haven't received any interview emails by now? Can anyone knows about the interview process illuminate me a bit? Is it just with the POI or also with other faculty such as DGS etc.? Is it in person or by phone/Skype? Wish you all get admitted to your dream school!

Congratulations to those of you who have received interview emails! If you don't mind to share, are your interviews with the POI only or you will meet other people in the department such as the Department Chair and the DGS? Are the interviews in person or by Skype or phone? Thank you for sharing and congrats again!

I want to apply for a phd program in Chinese history in Fall 2013. Glad to find the thread.

Thank you Usmivka. My percentage is Verbal 89% / Quant 97% / Writing 87%. I want to apply for the East Asian studies program at Princeton and Columbia. Another of my weakness is that my undergraduate major is physics and I do not have too many course works in humanities. Thanks again!

I want to change major (from science to humanities) for graduate school, and I have been out of school for 7 years. Any idea how I can get recommendations? My previous professors 1) are in science not in humanities, and 2) probably do not remember me since it has been so long. Your suggestions are appreciated!

Hi Guys, I have Verbal 161 + Quant 167 + AW 5 Is my Verbal too low if I want to apply for the top programs in the humanities? Thank you for your advices!
