cunninghamww Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Anyone going? I am still waiting on a few schools before I finalize my decision, but KU seems to be where I am headed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr1277 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I was waitlisted at KU for the MA program. Although they said "chances are good" that I'll get accepted off the alternate list, I'm not holding my breath. Rock. Chalk. Jayhawk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cunninghamww Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 I'm goin'! Plan to move down late July. PhD? Which route will you be going? I am about 99% sure I am going to KU, just waiting on one final school. Accepted for PhD in Lit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venti White Choc. Mocha Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 I'm a Romanticist. But I plan to dabble a good bit in science fiction and Japanification culture. I'm looking for a small foreclosure, but there are some really good cheap ones for family sized homes. I don't think you'll have to wait long to snap one up.

CarolineSC Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I'm probably going to end up there! I got the best offer from them (for an MA), and the school looks great from everything I've read. I'm expecting great culture shock as I'm from South Carolina. :0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venti White Choc. Mocha Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I'm from NC. It's righ outside Kansas City, so I think I'll be okay. Lived in small college town--lived in small city. I'm kind of looking forward to a change of pace, but I'll miss the South no doubt. I'll see you there. Have you joined SAGE yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cunninghamww Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 What is SAGE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venti White Choc. Mocha Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Student Association of Graduates in English I think. Every grad program has a student association with a student hierarchy. You can probably get in touch with a fellow grad student, and ask them questions about moving and the campus. Plus it's really fun to get involved with these groups--you meet people that share your interests early on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarolineSC Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 I want to make sure I don't get into Penn State or UIUC before I join. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegirlintheafternoon Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Hey there cunninghamww - I think I'll probably end up at Kansas with you (not that you don't already know that). But I want to do a bit more research on other programs first. SAGE does look intriguing - EGO has been good at 'Bama, so I'd like to get involved in another similar program out there.

cunninghamww Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 So, who's going? I accepted last night. I am going for sure. Headed up there with the wife for the first two weeks of May to house-hunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarolineSC Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I'm trying to find housing via Craig's list right now. :/ I'll be excited to meet you!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr1277 Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Wow... I just received an email from the DGS at KU accepting me off the waitlist. Five days after the April 15th deadline is a little late, don't you think? I've already accepted an offer at the school I am graduating from with my bachelor's. Now, I just feel bad.
