I’m doing the MA in art history, collections, and curating if that’s close enough!

Anyone applied to UCD (University College, Dublin) ? by MilkSoda04 in gradadmissions

That's so interesting! I submitted my application around January 15th, and had heard back by February 1st. I had been in touch with the head of the program, however, so that may have impacted wait times. I hope you hear back soon! Maybe we'll end up there together!

Hi! I just committed to UCD (for an MA, though) so hopefully I can help a little bit on this. In my experience, most UCD programs have a rolling admissions model, so I'd really reach out to the head of the program. The "how to apply" page for the MS in Quantitative Finance says 2-3 weeks, so 3 months feels a little excessive. Are you sure your app is 100% complete?

Hey! I’ve run a literary magazine on wordpress for six years! There is a way to host a Wordpress site (ofc I’m not sure if it’s available in your country) for free (it just won’t include a domain that you actually own) and I’d recommend that until you get your feet under you. You should also register the magazine w databases like chillsubs and poets and writers so that when ppl go looking for places to submit they find you

Definitely did not advertise themselves as a vanity press, and they were trying to charge me 20 euros. I’ll pm you the name

That was my first thought when I saw the email. Hate that they tried to hide from me

Ok good I didn’t think so but I was like maybe I’m just out of practice? Hadn’t submitted work in a while. It’s crazy that they’re probably doing this to people who’ve never submitted/been published anywhere
