  1. @Juneoh you 're not alone! I too am an international student for English lit, going through the same feelings of excitement and nervousness! I found your post especilly comforting - it was good to know Im not the only one having mixed feelings! At first I thought that getting an offer is all that takes to make me completely happy for the rest of my life! wasnt prepared for these post-offer nerves!
  2. Hi Im womdering if anybody's interested in being a roommate? Im hoping to get a 2/2..Im a female grad student so Im very quiet, tidy and not really a party person...I'll be spending most of my time in my room reading and typing..I love animals so Im ok totally ok with pets (a moderate number and well-trained ones!) but I dont have any pets on my own...Im just starting out at UF..Im posting this request here because I prefer to room with a grad student who is quiet and clean.. I would like to keep the monthly rent below $ 600 all utilities included...If anybody's interested, plz reply! We can chat and see if we hit it off before making a decision..
  3. Congrats @sarabethke! Very happy for you! Guess you can make proper plans now...
  4. You might want to check out University of Florida..Terry Harpold has sci fi interests..Guess there are few others as well; you can check out the faculty profiles...
  5. Its indeed getting tougher and tougher....I know that Purdue still couldnt send the Masters notifications because of funding issues...such a nice school! Too bad!
  6. I also finished other sections early so when I started speaking, noone else was speaking! My center gave us noise cancelling headphones, so when Others started speaking, I couldnt really hear what they were saying, just a slow hum... For anyone who is scared of having to speak to a mike: I was very apprehensive about how weird it would be, but it was totally ok...dont worry!
  7. Well, I emailed the school I was waiting to hear from and got a very warm reply..Their delay was only because of funding complications..If the wait is driving you nuts, its perfectly ok to email and ask..Schools should have notified their applicants by now..As an applicant you have the right to ask..I guess the worst they could do is not to reply..
  8. Congratulations! I too have followed your posts with interest and was really happy to hear you got in...Gives me hope that the waitlist could work out...
  9. Check the results board...I think Northwestern decisions went up weeks ago, sometime in Feb I think...
  10. PoliticalOrder, Neist and TakerUk, thank you soo much for your prompt replies! You guys are nice! I do like the look of Macbooks but its bit expensive...so I think I'll save my money since I already have a perfectly good, bought-only-last-year Windows laptop!
  11. Hi, I have been accepted to grad school in States...I'm wondering whether most American grad students use Mac laptops or windows laptops? I have a regular Windows laptop because that is what is generally used in my country..But when coming to States, I would like to have the type of computer generally used by most grad students in States so as to avoid compatibility issues...I know this is not a major question but I really would appreciate any help you guys could give me!
  12. Hey Cat,erburyTales, got some good news! Did you apply to Purdue for Masters or Phd? They have notified the Phd applicants but they havent sent out any English Masters offers yet..They are having funding complications and they expect to send out the Masters acceptances by the end of the month..Got all this from the DGS...If you're an English Masters applicant theres still hope!
