By "the archaeology program" do you mean Levantine archaeology with Burke? 

 

sorry I don't really know but my friend does specialize in Levantine Arch. He said it's an institute which accepted him.

Anyone accepted by Harvard CMES? I received my admission earlier in the week. Does anyone know when the FLAS awards are made?

Re: UT Austin acceptances/rejections, what are your subfields?

 

And for that matter, is anyone claiming the Hopkins interview? subfield?

Hi everyone. For HB/ANE folks still reading this, I am claiming one each of the UCLA and Brandeis acceptances. I was lucky enough to get them on back to back days and have been on cloud nine since then. They both offered generous funding packages. I have committed to UCLA since they were my top choice based on research interests.

 

I was rejected from Texas on Sunday.

 

Good luck everybody!

That's fantastic! I think you're going to love ucla and working with Schniedewind. Congratulations!

How good is funding at Austin, what's the average stipend?

 

I think not particularly good for out-of-state students. And perhaps you have to teach right away.

It wasn't me, but I heard a rumor it was for cuneiform. I have no clue about HB/NWS.

 do they release results at the same time?

I honestly have no clue. They seem to be one of the later notifications, that's all I know.

I too had an interview on the 26th; I've heard nothing.

At least one HB/NWS applicant got into the list, I heard today.

Hi all,

 

Thanks for the info.  La Sarar, how did you hear about this?  Did you email them to ask?  Also, do you have any more info about how many HB people got on the list?  Thanks!

 Hi, it was a classmate. I didn't email them because I'm not counting on JHU right now. Sorry but I've no idea how many people got on the list. My classmate got a call a few days ago.

Is your classmate intending to matriculate at Hopkins? Or, is Hopkins a back up for him/her? If you know.

Thanks!

Thanks, La Sarar.  Was he/she called for an interview, or simply informed about being shortlisted?  Just curious how the process works.

You are welcome. I honestly don't know. He has another acceptance so this could be a back-up choice. Plus he's not officially accepted to JHU yet, so it's hard to tell...

I don't remember him mentioning the interview. So probably just being shortlisted. It does sound pretty strange, though.

It is kind of strange.  Particularly because the single Hopkins listing on the results board mentions that shortlisted candidates are being flown in during March (presumably for an interview).  Maybe the department is only interviewing candidates from certain subfields, and not from HB.  Anyway, thanks for the info!
