Also curious is you got an email from the DGS or your POI? do you know if acceptances have been sent out? Yes, I'm also curious, I haven't gotten anything at all still. Also, someone reports an acceptance several days ago on the results board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waitinglikeits99 Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 For those who received recent updates regarding their Yale status, would you mind sharing if you only applied to Art History? Do updates for combined degrees come later? Lastly, does Yale always interview? It is hard to discern a meaningful pattern from the results page. TIA!

photograd Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 For posterity, here's a piece of an email I received from the department, seems to me it says that there are interviews on a selected shortlist of 20 : (first part is about whether it's necessary to be emailing or contacting someone before applying) "....Nor does that silence impact your chances in the admissions process. We have had students who are admitted whose only contact with the department was at the interview stage when a short list of 20 or so applicants are interviewed before the final selection." If you would like it. .....Though I wasn't interviewed, I don't know when it happened - if that is what he's saying, it sounds to me as though it is.

If this is in response to me, thank you, as well, for sharing this extra information! That is very helpful. I have still had no status update, but I also did not have an interview request, so I suspect it means a rejection.

I was contacted two weeks ago by the Director of Graduate Studies to let me know that I was waitlisted. There has not been any official notification or update to my application portal, though. Not sure if acceptances went out that same week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

photograd Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Noticed on the results board the continuing problem with people posting that they got UCLA who probably didn't get UCLA. Humor of it continues.😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did directly contact a DGS of a program (not art history) and received a very friendly response within a day that top candidates had been already interviewed and notified. Speaking of which, has anyone (sorry if I missed it) heard back from UPenn??

staxdo_21 Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Yes, I wonder if a brave soul with reach out to all the remaining programs I haven't heard from 😂 I might reach out if only to see if I'm waitlisted at any of the schools I haven't heard from. I assume not but dreams die hard. gobardhan and waitinglikeits99 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they interview all candidates in consideration? I'm assuming that since I did not get an interview I am probably not in the mix. waitinglikeits99 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn’t specify whether that meant that decisions would have been sent to applicants last week, or that announcements were to come beginning this week onward. waitinglikeits99 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
