LibraryLivingJT Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 I'm still waiting on my rejection letter from USC ASE - anyone else in that boat as well? Addison Kennedy 1
deshypothequiez Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 @LibraryLivingJT Yep, I am. LibraryLivingJT 1
slouching Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 Accepted to the MA program at Bowling Green, but waitlisted for funding...hoping the money comes through, since BGSU would be such a good fit. LibraryLivingJT 1
notatree Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 Well complaining about Brown last week led to immediate notification so: waiting on Harvard is driving me crazy!! Is it correct that nobody has heard either good or bad news from Harvard’s American Studies?! I wish they would hurry; I am so ready to be done with this.

As far as I'm aware that's correct and considering how late their deadline was, it doesn't seem strange to me either. Then again, there were no Yale acceptances on the results page either so I'm taking everything with a pound of salt right now. I second your impatience; I am zen and ready for rejection.

I am also waitlisted at FOUR schools so waiting for that, but I am very excited about UMASS. Wow! Waitlists should be starting to move a bit soon-ish.

While I only have one waitlist spot, I'm really crossing my fingers that this is the case. I spend way to much of my time hung up on whether or not I'll get moved up or not, time I should be studying or lesson planning.

Noire et Étrange Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 Called Harvard - the grad coordinator wasn't able to give much information, but did say he'll be at liberty to speak about individual applications starting tomorrow. So, hopefully, decisions will be coming out soon. SmallFrenchHouse and Ian Han 2

earlycalifornia Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 I was placed on the wait list at Kansas. I am not sure if anybody here applied to Kansas, but if you were accepted and aren't taking the offer, please make room for me! CulturalCriminal 1
Addison Kennedy Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Hi! I am relatively new to this forum but wondering if anyone has heard from USC ASE?
Ragu Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) Hi all. Has anyone been accepted by Harvard American Studies yet? Also, those who’ve heard anything (either accepted, waitlisted, or rejected) it would be great to know how were you notified? Thanks! Edited February 28, 2018 by Ragu
deshypothequiez Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 @Addison Kennedy There were a few accepts in USC ASE back in January.
CulturalCriminal Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 pSA: there’s a page called “results” on here that you can search with specific terms (I.e. American Studies, Harvard) to see if folks have posted their results. Obviously, not everyone knows about it. It seems though that at least one person posts their results for each of the AmStudies programs, so it’s a decent way to see if your program has started sending notifications out. Hope that helps folks trying to figure out what’s going on. It helps with if you haven’t heard anything because the program has not decided or because the program is holding off sending rejections to folks they might need to bump to waitlist status. That info might be enough to let you know you need to start making serious decisions about where you’ll be in the fall. It also helps you get through a pint of Hagen-Dazs while watching Dirty Dancing. LibraryLivingJT 1

Nope, not yet, but I saw some acceptances on the board from the end of January. They only take 4-6 students, according to the webpage. My POI in both English and ASE said he thinks ASE is done sending out acceptances already (but he wasn't sure about this).

Actually, they take 6-9 (according to the website), with a waitlist of about 3.
CulturalCriminal Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 Sounds like it’s time for some of you to call up some departments and make some decisions. Good luck to those that are waiting on news! Please let UT know if you’re not interested?. I think @evanmarie and I would both really appreciate the bump... LibraryLivingJT 1
deshypothequiez Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 (edited) Got an email from NYU while I was interviewing at Northwestern...except it was dated 3/5, and when I logged in, there was no decision. Apparently this was a widespread problem! Well, at least now I know when to expect my rejection... Edited March 3, 2018 by deshypothequiez
