Congrats. And likewise. I already accepted my offer from UCSD, though. Maybe it's for the best since I'd like to have an Asia-Pacific oriented career and their quant programs seem pretty comparable .

I was nominated on the 2nd and received the acceptance email two weeks later. I've never heard of a nominated applicant ending up being rejected or wait-listed. It's their way of saying "Hey get ready for the acceptance email!" A little different than other schools but I like that they're communicative. You'll hear very soon, I think.

I just want to echo many of you: I've heard from five of the six schools I applied to and nothing from LBJ. I'd be ok with it if there was open communication, but that hasn't been the case. Every day I've been waiting for them means going lower on grad housing lists at other schools and having the peace of mind knowing my future is secure. I'm just going to mentally expel them from my options and go with one of the other five schools that accepted me. Their loss.

Very similar here. I really would prefer to go to GPS, but I received a 17.5k/year award from Korbel, and a substantial one from the A&M Bush School. I'd like to see what UCSD is willing to give me before I make a final decision, though. Awesome! How are you liking the program?

Same here. I'm still waiting on official confirmation and a decision on financial aid, though.
