[Virginia Commonwealth University]

Just accepted the offer from VCU (PhD in Clinical and Translational Science - Psychiatric, Behavioral and Statistical Genetics Program).  So excited!

Have hope!  As I stated earlier, I was first on the waitlist for my first choice of schools.  I got a call on Friday, and I'm in!!!

I get where you're coming from

 

I'm currently #1 on the wait list for my top-choice of programs.  They only accept 3 students, and each is fully-funded plus a generous stipend.  I don't see how anyone is going to turn down that offer, but I am going to spend the next month obsessively checking my inbox anyway.  Everyone keeps telling me that the people who were sent offers probably received many offers that were just as good... but that's not helping my anxiety.
