I am under the impression that Madison does the inhumane, ruthless impersonal "check the website" thing...but I could be wrong. But I think they meant they will finally reach a consensus by the end of this week? On the same note, UW Madison's History of Science just submitted its first batch of fellowship nomination.

Wow. I am so glad I didn't apply to Berkeley! ...and *hugs*

UW Madison should have its results coming out this weekend, I have been reliably informed.

Congrats Zephyr99! Would you like to tell us where you might be going to?

Alright, I now have another Skype "chat"/interview request thanks to that email. After fumbling through the first one, hopefully I do not screw up this one. I was so nervous and unprepared when they asked me if I have any questions for the program. My mind went totally blank at that moment. I do wonder about contacting ad com and submitting new material after the deadline. I think by now it is too late to do anything, but I kept wondering if I should've sent in my better writing sample...

Thanks a lot for that opening...My brain isn't functioning at 3 am, and thanks for helping me getting this out of the door. I shall keep you guys updated.

Hello jamc8383, many thanks for the response. My advisor doesn't seem to care, and just instructed me to email the POI again. Argh.

I just received an email from my recommender telling me to contact a POI of an institution I've applied to. She told me that the department is considering my application very seriously, but they aren't sure of my interest because I never sent a letter of inquiry. Well, the reason why I didn't send any was because I thought it's too late (December) to properly express interest,and isn't it worse to send something now? What am I supposed to say?
