Well, that happens hahah good luck for the rest who applied!! I'm really sorry to hear this. This was for the PhD program, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

confusedmedievalist Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Did anyone on here apply to Yale Classics? I applied to the combined program through History, so I assumed I'd get my decision when the other History people did, but they rejections came out 2 days ago and I've heard nothing. I'm wondering if my decision will be more aligned with Classics, so if anyone applied and knows the timeline that's working on, it would be much appreciated. I'm still very anxious despite my acceptances, mostly because I don't want to start making decisions then have a new option come in and confuse me.... I am already confused enough!

I heard today, in a very informal talk (like, the friend of my friend said that), they might release the results tomorrow for Classics... I'm also waiting (although I'm not at all optimistic haha) confusedmedievalist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have noticed that a lot of the combined programs are on a different schedule from departmental programs. I think it’s because it’s easier for a single department faculty to meet up and discuss decisions versus the faculty from two or three different departments need to meet up and discuss decisions. At least that’s how one program described it to me and it makes sense. confusedmedievalist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, apparently they are not releasing the results today lol sorry, I really thought that could happen because I heard from another person that it was likely that they would send the results today, but yeah, let's keep waiting confusedmedievalist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about DAGRS but AHMA decisions have been out for a few days. I suspect DAGRS should be soon if it hasn't happened yet because their visit days are supposed to be the same as AHMA.

fall2020apps Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 I got a rejection from DAGRS earlier in the week. And I know from a contact within the department that they have made their shortlist and notified those people. So if you haven't heard anything, that might be a rejection or a waitlist. Also, my friend texted me literally 7 minutes ago saying she got a rejection from Cornell. She is a classicist who applied to the Interdisciplinary track and she got a personal email from the Chair of the Department saying the competition was fierce and that they are very sorry they could not offer her admission.

Caeciliusestpater Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 I was wondering if it was considered rude to reach out to schools to ask for updates or does it hurt your chances in anyway? If people have done it, what is the best way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latinboy Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Does anyone know what to expect from a campus visit invite after an initial Zoom interview? A program is flying me out on Tuesday and hosting me but I'm still not admitted, do you think I'm going to have to go through another round of interviews or could this just be to check that I'm a good fit for the department?

Also, I thought Harvard doesn't do interviews. Edit: Anybody happen to have any info about the RSI at Harvard though? Timetable/etc.? It's one of my top programs, but I really hope they return a decision before April; there's a similar program at Yale that infamously takes until late April sometimes, if not May.

speminalium Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 I always knew Ancient History did interviews but I applied for Philology and assumed they would interview as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caeciliusestpater Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 (edited) To speminalium / voxanonyma-- I don't really have any helpful information to offer, but I am also on the philology track and have not heard anything either. We're in the same boat. Edited February 14 by Caeciliusestpater Forgot to say who I was addressing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea whether they usually do interviews or not, though. No rejection means we’re still in it, though!!
