blunderbuss Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Hi everyone! I haven't seen a thread devoted to this topic for this application cycle. Since it is somewhat niche, I thought this might be the best place to get in touch with other applicants. So far I've applied to: - Indiana - Yale - Chicago (MAPH, two year language option) - George Washington University (Elliott School of International Affairs) - Columbia University Will apply to: - Georgetown (MA in Russian/Eurasian studies, also applying to computational linguistics MA) - NYU Would love to hear from anyone else applying. Columbia is probably my top choice. I am currently doing an AmeriCorps gap year before grad school, btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joenotexotic Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Hey, I applied to Columbia and Georgetown out of your list. Plus, REECA at Harvard's Davis Center. What is your main area of research interest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blunderbuss Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 (edited) @joenotexotic Nationality policy in the Soviet Union is my main historical focus. Through a master's, I am hoping to gain more expertise in contemporary Russia and Central Asia.

Ralya Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Hi folks, I applied to Stanford's REES and Harvard's REECA.

Have a nice day Nothing from Harriman, yet. We are in a bleak period of the cycle. According to forum posts from 2018 they seem to interview soon before decisions are released in early March joenotexotic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripeandrune Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Has anyone heard anything from Yale? Late Feb - early March seems to be the standard, but I'm refreshing my email about 15x a day waiting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joenotexotic Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Still no news from Harriman about interviews? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blunderbuss Posted February 27 Author Share Posted February 27 No news from Yale or Harriman. I've considered emailing, but I don't know if it's worth it joenotexotic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joenotexotic Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Yeah, I was also considering it and refrained for the same reason. And Lisa Gordinier's email on the admissions results date only convinced me further lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazona Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Hi everyone. I got accepted to both schools I mentioned earlier EURUS (Carleton Uni, Canada) with some funding and REECAS of University of Washington (no mention of funding). I’m just searching the forum and it seems to be pretty normal that US schools not offering funding for MA area studies programs?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
