Hi everyone,
I just got an "admission" email from Indiana University but the way it was formated was a bit obscure.
The first paragraph goes: "it's my pleasure to inform you that I have recommended to the Global & International Studies School that you be admitted to study toward the PhD program in International Studies in the fall semester 2016-17. Although it is still subject to the final approval from the Dean's Office, I am confident that this offer of graduate admission will be endorsed by the School"
Then at the end it goes: "We congratulate you and wish you every success in your graduate career. Please let us know if you still intend to enroll for the fall semester." Also, they included information about my initial advisor.
I emailed the department's coordinator, but I haven't received any reply back yet. Could you please explain it to me? Is that an informal admission?
