I wasn’t expecting them to admit until Feb. either! Very surprised! But as a posthumanist this program is a REALLY good fit for the work that I do, and I’m really pleased. (I’ve been hardcore lurking this forum for a while now.) Expand Have you gotten an email yet with details? She said they would be sending in a few minutes. I’m probably just being impatient though! madandmoonly 1

arbie Posted January 25, 2019 Posted January 25, 2019 Just posted re an email from Northeastern. Add them to the list of schools that interview—i wonder if this will be a growing trend?
Englishtea1 Posted January 26, 2019 Author Posted January 26, 2019 I posted regarding Northeastern's welcome invitation. They've invited some applicants to visit the campus for what they call a ""pre-admission welcome" in order to make a more informed decision about going there should we receive an acceptance.

Expand Interview weekends must be expensive, but I wonder if they've been losing money on admits before. If people have dropped out a couple years into the program, they might be trying to front load expenses.

Expand I think Northeastern started last year with inviting some applicants to campus. I know it caught some people by surprise.
Englishtea1 Posted January 26, 2019 Author Posted January 26, 2019 @Warelin interesting! Thanks for showing me this thread. They gave us an itinerary and everything with faculty/student meetings scheduled in so I assume that’s their opportunity to ask us about our research. @victoriansimpkins I wouldn’t consider it an implied rejection. I don’t even like how loosely the term is used on the forum because so many factors could change regarding who’s accepted into a program. A rejection is never a rejection until you get that official letter. a l l c a p s and j.alicea 1 1
dreid Posted January 27, 2019 Posted January 27, 2019 Hello gradcafe pals! I got an email from the departmental chair at USC Comp Lit on Friday, inviting me to campus for three days to meet the faculty and “talk about my work” ? I am somewhere between thrilled and TERRIFIED. I don’t suppose any 2018 applicants/current students have any insight on how this is gonna go down?! How many are invited vs accepted, what to expect from interviews, whether I should prepare a presentation or anything? Would so appreciate any info at all because I am bricking it! Thanks so much! dangermouse, dilby, sad_diamond and 2 others 5
