Graduate School Admission Results

I got rejected from 3 schools, likely due to GRE scores. But I made connections with the program coordinator, being able to talk to him in-person. And my research and teaching experience as well as my personality definitely came across to him and the review committee.

IELTS-7.5, GRE-not taken Applied after priority deadline

DON'T BE A CASH PIG FOR NYU PHD STUDENTS--HAVE SOME RESPECT XOXO (: If a school can afford 9k chairs for their library, they can afford to give some funding to students for their MAs.... Dear XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX: On behalf of Dean Lynne Kiorpes and the Graduate School of Arts and Science, I am very pleased to tell you that you have been admitted to the Master of Arts program in Latin American and Caribbean Studies. You may register for the Fall 2025 semester. We appreciate your application to the Department of Anthropology. While the Department of Anthropology was not able to offer you admission, we very much hope you would consider pursuing a master's in Latin American and Caribbean Studies at NYU's Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (CLACS). After a special review of applications, yours was selected by CLACS due to your research interests and profile. We feel that you may be interested in the interdisciplinary master's program in the Center. An MA from CLACS is your next step in furthering a career related to Latin America or the Caribbean, and CLACS alumni have gone on to doctoral programs at NYU, Duke, Princeton, Yale, USC, and UT Austin, among a number of others. Our location in New York City, furthermore, gives you access to one of the most exciting and intellectually stimulating cities in the world. We regret to add that there are no fellowships or scholarships available to you through the Graduate School or your program. In the Other Resources section of the Admitted Student Resource Page (see link below), you will find information detailing other sources of funding. I encourage you to explore the many options available.
