After all my worries, my first acceptance! University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee Only a one page acceptance letter in the mail, no information on funding.

Hello everyone, I've been lurking for weeks, but now that I used the results search properly and saw some people waitlisted for a program I'm waiting to hear from, I thought I'd get brave. I'm interested in asking those waitlisted at the University of Pittsburgh, to which of the concentrations did you apply? I'm only hoping that because this is a social science comm. thread, there's still a chance for media studies spots. But it certainly helps to see people going through the same thing, and to give me a general idea on how quickly departments are responding. I'm actually in a social sciences comm. master's program, but I studied film undergrad and want to return to media studies/qualitative work. I've only had one response from a program so far, and it was a rejection. It was one of my long shot schools, but it's still got me pretty pessimistic about the other 5 I haven't heard from. I'm slowly trying to get used to the idea that I might have to do another round of apps, but it's just not the happiest thought. I realized I wanted to be a professor 4 years ago, so it's hard to imagine not having a clear path towards that goal. Sorry for the vent amidst everyone posting results, but I guess the stress of this has gotten to me. Anyone with an info on Pitt, let me know!
