nograd

I applied to an University ( middle of the pack). I was elated that I was admitted. (Nov) Sent a yes I will come statement. \(Nov) Was waiting on funding. The classes start in 1 week. No letter as yet saying yes or no to funding. From prior posts average wait time for funding letter 6wks Called the dept. in November after acceptance letter for spring 15 phd and was informed that all students are considered for funding so I waited for a yeh or neh. I got nothing. I emailed the coordinator and was referred to the dept. chair . Very nice man. Was encouraging so I waited and still no letter. so I was thinking Should I email him and ask if my admission could be deferred until September to see if would fare better in the funding situation? I do not want to appear desperate but I really wanted to go. I was even selected to work with a particular professor. I feel totally duped. so I went to reactivate my application that I did not pursue at another school ( more selective) as a result of my other admit. They lost my transcripts from one school so I had them resent. They are now requesting new LOR they were only 5 mos old. I believe they lost them. I already told my prof that I was accepted to the first school as they were writing letters for an external scholarship I was applying to for funding. How should I ask the school to look for my LOR? I want to find out if the LOR are lost or maybe found or outdated. I asked if I had to submit new LORs and initially they said no if applying to the same program don't want to give up but what to do. Any words will do.

Things happen forget about it. Look at all the other schools you are applying too. They may forgive u thinking English is not your first language.
