obviousbicycle, I'd send your contact a note along the lines of "Hi Dr Whoever, I'm really excited about the prospect of studying UW. I just wanted to touch base with you on the status of the funding decision you mentioned to me a few weeks ago."
Wow, congratulations to all who've been accepted by a program! There are some great geography schools represented here.
I see over on the acceptance forum that an international student was turned down by IU-Bloomigton a few days ago, but I haven't heard anything from them. Has anybody else heard one way or the other from IU?
