Finally found out myself rejected from the website. Though there was no email notification, the rejection letter attached to the site was extremely nice. I will be starting my PhD in a much warmer area. Good luck to all.

A current student in the program received an email with bios of the incoming PhD students. I found out through her (as my name wasn't in it). The department hasn't been in communication at all, even after numerous attempts. I emailed ages ago with a question about their application process; I emailed when the April 15 deadline was coming up; I emailed after the April 15 deadline if I wasn't accepted, if I could still get any kind of confirmation. This may seem a little rant-ish, but I still applied to this school for it's great professors. Clearly, there's some lack of organization and respect within the department. I want future applicants to know this institution may very well be a waste of money (70 dollars to apply!) and time. I can describe them as nothing but highly unprofessional.

I want to chime in here to say my experience applying to Miami was similar to those of the posters below. I received no official notification from the school until the 19th, when I got a standard rejection letter. I had learned I was waitlisted there maybe a month prior, but only because I called the department to ask. Had I not done that, I would have been completely in the dark until after the national deadline had passed. It seems the department did a poor job this year of communicating with applicants to all of its programs, as other posters had similar experiences applying to the MA and MFA. Were I not fortunate enough to get into a PhD program this year and were I reapplying next year, I would not apply to Miami again.

Received an email from the department that those who submitted early decision (before December 15th) will receive a decision by January 25th (as opposed to the original date of Jan 15th). The early admission ad-com had to reschedule because of inclement weather.

Received update re: early decision notification deadline being today. Was told committee is waiting to hear about funding from Provost's office before extending offers, but they "continue to be interested in [my] candidacy". I am doing a cautious happy dance.
