It so is a good fit and that's such good news! I'm sitting at a Barnes and Noble about five minutes away from Rice right now, resisting the urge to stumble into their department office and tell them "hey guys it's me dilby you don't need to call me I'm right here" fortschritt22, a l l c a p s, sad_diamond and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.) 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arbie Posted January 25, 2019 Share 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Englishtea1 Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share 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.

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Northeastern started last year with inviting some applicants to campus. I know it caught some people by surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Englishtea1 Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share 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. j.alicea and a l l c a p s 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreid Posted January 27, 2019 Share 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!

Yes, having some early responses has been so nice. Although, there's still part of me that is incredibly anxious about the rest (of course)!
