Anyone applied to CMU SLA PhD

[AppPsycholinX]

Hi,

Did anyone get the interview invites from CMU SLA program? I guess they should send out the invites at this time based on the threads of last year. I am so freaking out. I check my email hundreds of times every day, but no news was sent in.

I didn't apply to that program, so I have no useful news to share, just a show of moral support. Waiting is really hard, especially when we get closer to February and the results from last year. Just remember we are still very early in the season and it is normal not to hear anything yet. Don't lose hope (or your mind!).

That said, CMU is awesome. It is very close to the University of Pittsburgh, so the campuses share a lot of resources and the professors often work together. Pittsburgh is also a cool city with a bunch of delicious restaurants within walking distance of campus. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. If you do get an interview and want any recommendations for navigating the area, just PM me.

Thank you for being supportive!!! Maybe I am too nervous.

I totally know how you feel. This time last year, Brown was giving out their interview requests (January 29). Ive been checking the results forum and I see that theyve already sent out requests/ rejections for the Cognitive Science and Psychology programs in the department (CS, Psych, and Ling are all together there). Which means .... Linguistics is coming any day now. I'm biting my nails, waiting ...

I had an interview on Sunday over the phone.

Hey man,

I did apply. I sent an email to one of the professors on Friday and she told me they are in the final stage of the selection procedure. So I guess next week we'll hear from them.

Good luck for us!
