Got my acceptance today from the University of New Mexico's MA program!

No departmental funding, but they also don't offer any funding to MA students.

Ah! Why is Brown taking so long for PhD notification? Why was there one random admit on the results board? Why do I check Applyweb.com every 10 minutes? 

Rant over.

Congrats!

 

And yeah, I'm still waiting on 3 schools and since it's Friday my anxiety is much more palpable. Just tell me already, jeez. You've had two months and this isn't some enormous program where you get thousands of apps.

Yale also seems late-ish in terms of acceptance letters. The always notified students on the last Friday of Feb in the past.

Anyone know when Maryland plans to notify? Last year people heard in mid-January. I've emailed the DGS but haven't heard back.

Hi all,

Long time lurker, first time participant (inspired by @CTKopster 's comment)... Congrats to all of those who have received good news so far! I was invited to a recruitment event at GWU, wondering if anyone else on here applied/is attending/knows anything about the program. I'm familiar with the work of the professors I would like to work with, as well as the sense of the program communicated on their website, but I'm wondering if there is any more general impressions of that program floating around in the world of American Studies...

I called Brown and BU. Brown is sending out notifications this week. They call those who are accepted into the program and send an email to those who are rejected. BU told me notifications will go out sometime in mid-March. I'm losing my mind! Hang in there, my peeps!!

Update: DGS responded and said I was on the wait list.

I emailed BU on Thursday and they said I should hear within a week! Hopefully it isn't actually mid-March before they notify!

I urge those of you who were given offers of admission to input the stipend information, if any, at http://www.phdstipends.com/ .  Knowledge is power, and congrats to those who were accepted.

You got a phone call?

Yep! Phone call from DGS and then an email with all the details. From the results page it looks like someone else did, too.
