AlecB Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Figured I'd check in on where other people are. I applied to theory PhD and MM programs. Got an e-mail last week to interview for Harvard and had that interview on Friday, they said it would be a while before I heard anything. Still waiting to hear from UChicago and Columbia PhDs. Also applied to MM programs at UT-Austin and UW-Seattle, but don't expect to hear from them for a little while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'mReallyScaredIWontGetIn Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 Hearing that Chicago sent out acceptances is pretty heartbreaking. I meet with their faculty and they were all so nice. This wait is starting to get pretty brutal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gweine Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Is someone applying for Ethnomusicology? If yes, what schools? I applied UCSB, USCC, US BERKELEY.. No updates so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ks391262 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Doesn't sound good for us people waiting to hear from Chicago if others have already been sent acceptances... Anyone out there applied to Duke? Do you have an idea of when we should hear results? The results from past years seem to be all over the place in terms of timing, from around now (late Jan) to as late as early April. They are one of the programs I have the best hopes for getting into.

Well hopefully anyone who hasn't heard ANYTHING (from whatever school) might potentially be in the running even if they aren't (for example) candidates 1-4 on the list, and will be sent acceptances a little later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you heard about any acceptances for composition, or just for music theory/history? Based on past years' results, composition results don't come in until February.

I also applied to Duke and have not heard anything yet. Since they allowed writing samples to arrive up until January 26, I would think we still have a bit of time to wait. But I do not know for sure. Hopefully soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No clue, but I'm curious as to whether you have heard of someone who has received an interview (or if you did yourself, and if so, congratulations) and for what program?
