I think the worst part of my anxiety is knowing that I'm going to be getting mail acceptances while I'm gone on spring break, and neither of my parents will be home and none of my roommates will be able to check our mail at school either. So much for relaxing over break, right? Ugh.

I heard that they're sending out decisions tomorrow!

Feels so good to get accepted - even if it's just a safety. Now to see if a dream is possible...

Great thread! Getting me to think about my priorities. My Hope is to get in somewhere...anywhere...I just want to go to grad school now and not have to worry about what I'll do in the mean time... My Dream...let's do it like this: My UNREALISTIC dream is to get into Vandy. It's been my dream since I was a little girl, but let's be real, I applied there knowing that I'm 80% sure I'll be rejected. I just knew I'd be kicking myself for the rest of my life wondering "What if?" if I didn't apply. My REALISTIC dream is to get into LSU or Tennessee Knoxville. I love both of those programs and would be very happy in either Baton Rouge or Knoxville. My Guess is that I know I probably will get into a program. I really think I'd be happy in any of the programs I applied to, I'd just be happier in some programs over others. The professors at my university have psyched us out thinking that you'll never be good enough to get into grad school, and that's just constantly on my mind now (let's be real, this site doesn't help much either ). Fingers crossed that these next few weeks come with tears of joy rather than sorrow!

Anyone else applying to University of Alabama - Tuscaloosa? I was checking my app statuses today and checked Bama's for the first time. The status on mine says "referred for review by dept." Does anyone know if this means I made it through the first round or something? I'd love some good news! Haha

I, unfortunately, have nothing under my credentials suggesting an interview. :/ Just curious, did you all apply via the Emerson website or CSDCAS? I'm wondering if that's making a difference. I went through the CSDCAS.
