The only acceptance I've received so far is from my current institution which I was hoping to leave. No idea if I'm on a waitlist, and no idea if the schools even have waitlists. I emailed one school to ask about the status of my app and they didn't address it. "thanks for your inquiry" is all I got. Another school invited me to visit but hasn't responded to my last two emails.
I was an NSF GRFP honorable mention. Didn't get that either. So close but yet.... so far.
