brockdenbrown802 Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 I was the person asking about UNebraska on results.. wanted to move my question here, because it might be less annoying. I am not sure which portal to check for my status or if it posts on ApplyWeb (does anyone else have a school app on here + know how to view results?). I also checked the MyRed app and I can't see anything. I'm assuming it's a rejection as I haven't heard and the app date was 12/1 - but I can't find the letter! (a more optimistic version of me would think waitlist, haha). If anyone knows about this school or has results from them I would super appreciate it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I received a nice email back from the grad coordinator stating that I was within the top 10 applicants of 20th c British and Irish literature! She said she expects she'll have more concrete news by "the middle of next week." I'm hoping for another waitlist, at least! congrats omg thats amazing!!! what a nice thing to hear today! cassidyaxx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShivD Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 11 hours ago, brockdenbrown802 said: hahaha - happy to read the tea leaves with you. I'm (primarily) an Americanist with a large focus on the nineteenth-century and American Gothic novels - however, I also write on adaptation that takes me into other periods (traditional forms of adaptation and emerging - fanfiction,etc.) I actually have really appreciated the schools that just email the rejection. I don't mind the portal logins, but every second of extra anxiety counts! lol! I see rejections posted by CUNY, but I didn't get one yet?! Waves of rejection? But anyway, haha, to join the reading of tea leaves... I'm interested in the relationship between films/ popular culture and queer feminist theory regarding questions of desire and fantasy. My focus is desire, and its uneasy relationship with "politics," using an archive of films (and debates around them), cultural blow ups and queer feminist theory. languageisaskin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shake829 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 I applied to CUNY and have not received any communication from the department. According to the decisions forum, rejections were sent out, but my application still says “submitted.” I’ve tried reaching out to the program but have received no response. Looking at the history of CUNY decisions, this seems to happen to a few people each year. Has this happened to anyone (or is this currently happening to anyone) on here, and if so, can you share what happened? Were you waitlisted? Were you accepted? Or were you, unfortunately, rejected much later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
languageisaskin Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Hi @Shake829, this is the case for me as well, and I know at least three other people over in the 2021 Applicants thread mentioned that they haven't received any updates either! I'm afraid I don't have much information to share, but I can definitely affirm that you aren't alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silk Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 okay so i just got an acceptance e-mail from alberta's ma program. anyone have any solid information about their funding package? they are offering me 20k for the first year (scholarship), but it says i'd have to reapply next year for funding. since i cannot go if i do not have guaranteed funding for two years, this is kind of bittersweet. also, would i still have to pay tuition? i'm really confused. the letter says i should get back to them by march 19, which is also too soon imo. i'd be happy if anyone had any info on this!

SirGhostus Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 (edited) I know technically the acceptance into the MA program makes this an acceptance letter, but has anyone ever told Fordham that--although admittedly humorous--it's somewhat tone-deaf to include an overlay of celebratory streamers and confetti when rejecting someone from a PhD program. And as someone who just posted an edited decision page as a joke, I wanna be clear: this is not a joke or an edited photo, it's actually what their decision letter looks like.

R Westy Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 My UT Austin app status page now says “Attention: Your file has been forwarded to the Graduate Committee for review.” I’m assuming that doesn’t mean anything, but because I’m bored/anxious, wanted to see if y’all’s status page says the same thing?

maddykrob Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 still waiting on penn state, university of rhode island, SUNY Albany, Florida State, and University of Florida. anyone else waiting for any of these, too? I applied for a mix of media studies phds and english, but I'm wondering how to approach next year's application cycle. I'm 22, finishing up my MFA at Miami OH, and have little experience in terms of conferences and publications that aren't creative/film based. how do y'all blend your interests into programs that are alllllmost the right fit, without having to reframe your experience? this is all to say, I am tired. queenofcarrotflowers, R Westy and Lighthouse Lana 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Maritime Scholar Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Just finished speaking with the DGS from OSU. Did not get a fellowship, unfortunately. However, we went over stipend details and all that. The course load is one per semester, which is great! I'm still waiting on a few more schools, but yes. I'm feeling good about OSU! queenofcarrotflowers, brockdenbrown802, R Westy and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
