I am stuck with my bad situation. Was told i am wait listed to Northwestern University one month ago. Then I attended an open house in Northeastern university. The professor was ready to offer me a position and asked me how serious I am. I told him I am waiting for Northwestern. He was kinda expecting me to confirm with him that I will attend and then he offers me the position. He then asked me to keep him posted with my situation. I feel scared that he offers someone else the position and also Northwestern rejects me. Have no idea what to do. It is so important to me to find a position this year Anybody any idea?
