Prelim results are announced in a letter from the Director of Graduate Studies or the Chair. Any letters not picked up in that time are mailed out to the address left with Mary Braun. You can also call or e-mail her for results if you wish. Students who know they will be out of Ann Arbor before the results are available can have their letter mailed immediately. You can also request your letter be picked up by whomever you designate.
Prelim grading timelines vary considerably across fields and across individual committee members.
Results have been announced in as soon as a day and as long as four weeks. Individual results are not posted. Students can pick up copies of past prelims for review at any time in Room 250. The micro and macro theory prelim answers are also available. Written answers to the field prelims are not prepared and therefore not available.
