Rrandle101 Posted February 11, 2020 Posted February 11, 2020 Just found out I got into Indiana's Comparative Literature program! The email also had specific details about faculty I should message in my field/fellowship information so if you have not heard back yet I would say don't panic because they might just be waiting to email some people til they have all the funding details ironed out (this is just my speculation) pinkhermy, sirens + warnings, WanYesOnly and 1 other 4

Such a relief to get accepted somewhere Rrandle101 1
asdf1123 Posted February 12, 2020 Posted February 12, 2020 @WanYesOnly Congrats! I'll miss the first day's events but will be there for the second day. Will you be flying out of country to join? The interactions I've had with Penn State have been very positive and welcoming, and their program seem quite vibrant and structured. The offer is indeed a huge relief.

I agree, the interactions I've had have also been so warm it feels great to be wanted by such great people and a fantastic school I hope I'll see you there then as we wait for the rest of out schools to respond. asdf1123 1
diacritics123 Posted February 12, 2020 Posted February 12, 2020 Just thought I should let people know that I received an offer from Brown Comp. Lit. in late January. I'm not sure if they're still sending out acceptances or not or what their usual timeline is, but best of luck! Late January definitely seemed a bit early to be sending out acceptances, so I may have just been an anomaly? Has no one heard back from Yale? I'm assuming a rejection, given what Figures III wrote earlier.

Hopefully, this timeline is still true!!

It's probably the top program in terms of prestige/rankings but my financial offer I got from them was the lowest of all my offers (nothing could be so simple with picking I guess) but I've been in touch with DGS and a grad student there to evaluate the funding offer better.

Ivy0327 Posted February 13, 2020 Posted February 13, 2020 Still no words from Yale? Seems like it takes longer judging from previous timeline.
caeiro Posted February 13, 2020 Posted February 13, 2020 No email, but updates posted to Yale account. Good luck!
diacritics123 Posted February 13, 2020 Posted February 13, 2020 I just got an acceptance from Yale! So happy and so grateful! asdf1123, FiguresIII, Rrandle101 and 2 others 5

Did they release any details about it yet? I only saw the acceptance letter on the portal and have exchanged emails with my POI, who mentioned it in passing.

The graduate coordinator will probably reach out about it tomorrow or next week.

asdf1123 Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 I’m in at Harvard. There wasn’t an interview Rrandle101 1
