I heard from Harvard last night. Waitlisted.

<sub>Had my interview with CU Boulder on the 7th and was accepted on the 11th with full funding. Was previously accepted by UC Davis (fully funded), UWM (fully funded) and UW (waitlisted for funding).  

Still hoping to hear back from Williams soon!</sub>

Anyone heard anything out of the IFA? Things are very quiet in the art history results…very jealous of all the history decisions that have come back already

I also didn't receive any interview requests from Columbia. Does no interview mean no admission? I'm getting worried. Also, has anyone heard from Brown, Yale or Pitt?

I received a waitlist email from the IFA on the 6th of February. I was also told that they did not interview at all this year and that apparently this year was particularly competitive (rather than the usual 12 offers out of 200 applications they list on their website, they only gave out 6 offers out of 300 applications!)

Thank you!! I will interpret no news as bad news but I'm glad to know!

not really here with admission results or anything like that, moreso a vibe/morale check. it seems like a lot of art history applicants are waiting in radio silence. are we doing okay??? i'm waiting on the other program i applied to and i feel like a caged animal 😭

oh yes. silent vibes are making me insane. don’t have much to add but i can’t wait for this to end soon because no matter how much i try to distract myself and relax, i cannot 😭😭 i am also wondering like, what on earth is going on behind the scenes ….

I laughed at loud at the caged animal comment -- I feel so seen...

the waiting is making me insane. I finally got an admit, and almost cried when I received the phone call but I'm still waiting on 7 other programs

I am feeling so so so out of whack. The caged animal description is accurate. I am waitlisted for USC which is my top choice, and it stressing me out sooooooo much.
