Yay, congrats!

I'm in AP; hoping this works out! EDIT: I should add that I also expressed interest in public policy, so even if you're not an Americanist, this could help!

I recently declined my offer. I hope that frees up a spot for you!

Yes, the email came with the formal acceptance and funding information.

re: research interests Mine are in partisanship and policy change in American Politics.

Just to speak to this point, I would agree that there is an overemphasis on GRE scores on this forum. Of course, they matter to an extent, but they are far from the end-all-be-all. My Q GRE score was 155, and I've been admitted into 3 programs, including Duke, so far. To be fair, my writing sample was an economics research paper that I figured would more than make up for my lukewarm GRE score.
