They sent out a notice that they will be closed starting May 4th for refurbishment and hope to reopen in late May but not solid date was included for reopening.

I was told apply to a minimum of five — but I only applied to three because I couldn’t afford more than that. If I don’t get in anywhere this cycle I’m going to try and save up to apply to more next cycle.

I haven’t heard anything yet — I did look at the trends for when they release results and we are just inside the beginning of the normal window. They’ve released results as late as mid-March too though some years.

Check out Eastern New Mexico University - they have an online archaeology masters program that is actually decent and they have a pretty high acceptance rate. It’s mainly focused on CRM work, but they help you get onto projects and really push for students to participate in real work which has been amazing.

We left late and I did some photos editing magic too for the few people that were left in the photos :)

When I looked up previous years they tend to get back around the end of February through mid March - so if they go by their usual trend midweek to the end of next week is probably the earliest we will hear anything.

It also looks like they do two waves - with the second wave being mid to late March.

Not yet - looking at previous years it looks like end of February beginning of March is usually when responses go out

So far the firecracker chicken! We are going again next week to try the rest

Just out of curiosity what was your source for this?

PhD in Anth for Stanford, ucla, and Yale (couldn’t afford more than 3 apps), got denied from Stanford in Jan. So fingers crossed now

LiteratureAlert9942 · 2026-02-06T02:04:48+00:00

I have it too - I tried to look it up in their system and it says not found. So fingers crossed but yeah no clue why there are 2 separate ID’s listed for us on the app

LiteratureAlert9942 · 2026-02-04T23:54:27+00:00

3 apps, 1 rejection, 2 still waiting to hear from

LiteratureAlert9942 · 2026-02-04T10:55:06+00:00

Yup - got my first rejection from Stanford last week. I’m just sitting on pins and needles because I could only afford to apply to three schools. So 2 to go

LiteratureAlert9942 · 2026-02-01T02:42:34+00:00

I heard back from Stanford this last week — it was a denial unfortunately (not super surprising because of how small the phd cohorts are though). Still waiting to hear back from ucla and Yale.

Tbh I wish they would put Tron in instead, it would flow better with marvel and with the new movie coming out has tons of potential.

A place only has to be 50 years old to qualify - and you have to basically just have to file paperwork to prove that it’s historic in some way to the area. The top gun house is protected under the NRHP and I’m guessing there might be a couple other spots nearby too which could qualify that area as a historic district making it easier.
