I was the Northwestern admit in Medieval History. I'm hoping to do something with gender and sexuality, so it's a really good fit. It was also such a relief to get in somewhere after being rejected from Berkeley yesterday. Still waiting on six more, including Brown. That's crazy they're only admitting 5 students! It wasn't one of my top choices anyways, and knowing that will make the inevitable rejection a little easier to take. Also waiting on NYU. Didn't get an invite to the prospective students weekend, which sort of surprised me since I had been in contact with a prof there who said she'd push for me to be accepted, but I guess that doesn't necessarily mean anything. I was thinking that maybe they just invite people they're unsure of, and leave out the definite admits. At least that's what I'm telling myself.
