Oh, and most importantly: keeping fingers crossed for you, whatever happens, solala!!

I don't know if it's the demos that are delaying--I think only undergrad law at McGill voted to strike, but I'm also going on secondhand info. I was also originally told I'd hear by the end of Feb/first week in March, and it was...three weeks(wish) later. I had really good chats with professors and students, and a good feeling about the place, so I'd be curious to hear what's up with the delays; seems like something is awry in the land of academic meetings/admin. Regardless, I hope everyone gets answers fast. McGill was my top choice, so I took it, even though I was/still am technically still waiting on Oxford. (And noticing not a lot of stuff posted on Oxford, and communication woes...delays everywhere!!) Sigh. Waiting sucks. : ( Maybe give it another few days...? I don't even know if they are open Monday.

For what it's worth, I was the one anthro PhD who posted for McGill. They were very delayed the last I heard from them (week and a half ago)--due to the faculty search, for two positions--but I did respond to them as soon as possible so that others can get notified. My uApply status was on "Submitted" nearly two days after I was notified by the Dept, so perhaps uApply isn't the best thing to judge things by. According to the letter, they are trying to enroll a cohort of 10, and provide funding for all (fees + stipend).

Same feelings here re:McGill. I did call this week, and they said information was slowly coming out (fair, it's break week anyways). Anyone else apply/hear anything from them?
