GPA is MA. 1a/2r/2p.

Email to check portal; no funding info. Does anyone now the funding situation in general for the program? 1a/1p/1w/1r

I was wary of this University after hearing they canceled their English PhD program due to funding issues. Seems a bit of a mess.

TTPB: I emailed two weeks ago and was told we were supposed to find out before last Friday... So I am also curious as the wait is feeling like forever

TTPB: I emailed UCSB mid February because I realized my writing sample had not uploaded. The grad coordinator said they were going to send out offer letters the first week of March but it's now the 9th... I haven't heard of anyone else receiving an acceptance so hopefully news will come soon!

Due to the lengthy silence, I had assumed this automated status update email was a rejection--to my surprise, it notified me that I am on "a selective waitlist" Interdisciplinary scholar, 2 MAs. 0a/2w/5r/2p The waiting continues!

Received a kind email which explained that the department does not "have the capacity to supervise [my] project adequately." I feared that may have been the case :/ Good luck to others!

Has anyone heard back from UCSB? They told me a while ago that they were meeting at the end of February. This is my top choice so I'm anxious to know.

“The Graduate Studies Committee of the English Department has given careful consideration to your application, and I am sorry to report that it did not recommend your admission to our graduate program.” It did not recommend me... 💀

GPA is MA. I emailed the program and was informed that I was waitlisted. If you are not planning on attending, please let the program know. This is my top choice!

GRE scores were not amazing but strong LOR and GPA helped! Also, I never got an email to check the portal. I just checked and it was there!
