DoctorMusical Posted January 12, 2023 Posted January 12, 2023 Hi, Looks like this forum is quiet this year. Anyone apply to Theatre/Performance Studies/Dramaturgy programs this cycle? Submitted everything a few weeks ago. Haven't heard back from any programs yet. (Looking for friends to commiserate with while I wait to hear back!)
CaiPerformance Posted January 18, 2023 Posted January 18, 2023 I haven't heard anything yet, which is a little disheartening! For context, I applied to Theatre and Performance Studies PhD programs.
DoctorMusical Posted January 18, 2023 Author Posted January 18, 2023 From past results on the forum and this website, I would have expected to hear back about interviews to some programs by now, so I was getting nervous. I'm sure it'll all be clearer in the next 3 weeks. I was just looking for data points, but I also know that this year is atypical, considering many programs paused their admissions during COVID and this may be the first year some programs are accepting again. Fingers crossed!! Where did you apply?
CaiPerformance Posted January 18, 2023 Posted January 18, 2023 Good points! Best of luck with the process. I applied to UC Berkeley, CUNY, and Brown. How about yourself?
DoctorMusical Posted January 19, 2023 Author Posted January 19, 2023 Brown, Columbia, CUNY, and NYU I have a friend at UC Berkeley! Best of luck to you! CaiPerformance 1
DoctorMusical Posted January 31, 2023 Author Posted January 31, 2023 Did anyone else hear back from Yale about interviews?
LifeIsMiserable Posted February 5, 2023 Posted February 5, 2023 I just found out about this forum! I'm so worried I've got only one interview request so far... Anyone else applied to Columbia, CUNY, or Brown? Have they already reached out to those who made it to the interview?
DoctorMusical Posted February 6, 2023 Author Posted February 6, 2023 Applied to Columbia but never heard back. Assumed it was a no by this point.
BD2000 Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 Hi! Just created account on here! I applied to TAPS PhDs at Brown, Columbia, Northwestern and Stamford, haven’t heard from any and currently awaiting any news.
dancedance Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 Hi yall! I applied to (too) many programs. Got interview requests at UCLA, UCSD, Stanford, Northwestern, U Buffalo, and Columbia so far. Heard back from UCR and on the waitlist!
DoctorMusical Posted February 8, 2023 Author Posted February 8, 2023 Congrats! A friend got into Stanford a few years ago, but turned it down. I guess Columbia is a no for me. ?
cannellinibeansoup Posted February 9, 2023 Posted February 9, 2023 @dancedance Congrats! All of those interviews, that's amazing! Can I ask when you heard from Northwestern?
dancedance Posted February 9, 2023 Posted February 9, 2023 (edited) @cannellinibeansoup Yes of course! Got an email from Northwestern on Jan 26. Edited February 9, 2023 by dancedance
dancedance Posted February 9, 2023 Posted February 9, 2023 Also yall - got my first rejection! Brown ?
beyoncesson Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 @dancedanceso exciting for Northwestern! I applied too but haven’t gotten any invite or email (should I be worried?). Can I ask was your invite for a one on one or invite weekend?

I'm not sure what the process is but I recommend checking your spam! The interview notification I got from UCSD went there (oy!). Northwestern emailed inviting me to the weekend thing, which includes some one-on-one interviews and an infosession I think. I'm sure you'll hear from some soon! There are still a bunch I haven't heard from, so I think it's still early.
cannellinibeansoup Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Anyone else hear back from Cornell?!

dancedance Posted February 18, 2023 Posted February 18, 2023 Hey yall! Heard from CUNY yesterday - waitlisted! historicallytheatrical 1
historicallytheatrical Posted February 24, 2023 Posted February 24, 2023 Hello, everyone! I hope you all are having an optimistic application cycle so far. I don't think I've applied to many institutions which overlap with others in the group, though I also haven't heard back from Cornell. Good luck to everyone at Northwestern interviews. I presume it's this weekend?
LifeIsMiserable Posted February 27, 2023 Posted February 27, 2023 Hey everyone, heard back from CUNY couple of weeks ago - I got accepted! I’m still waiting for Cornell but have no information or updates at all. If anyone has anything please share! I guess Columbia is a clear no for me as well. They didn’t get back to me at all haha dancedance 1
dancedance Posted February 28, 2023 Posted February 28, 2023 Has anyone heard from UCLA, UCSD, or Stanford? I had interviews but haven't heard since!
