ahhopeful

anyone have any info on madison?

Hi All - Thanks for your replies! My subfield is American with a focus on race. It does seem like they notify later in the month so I will try to remain "hopeful" as my moniker suggests. I read somewhere that Penn's applications were up to 200-something while taking 5 students, and I just got to thinking that everyone in the country is competing for like 40 spots or something at the "ten best-known" schools. I believe Stanford will be taking mostly modern/contemporary students so you guys should keep up hope too!

Congrats to the Stanford admit and wait-list! I, like the rest of you have poured my blood, sweat, tears, and cash into this admissions process. Do you have any additional information? Stanford is (was? ) my top choice. I'm wondering if it is time for tissues and feeling sorry for myself.
