[Fall 2016 Applicants]

Hi! I attended the Madison visit, and I didn't have funding at the time (nor did a couple other visiting people there). I was offered funding very shortly after the visit. I do know that at least one of the funded people there is attending, and it's looking like I may as well. However, there were one or two funded people there who were less sure about the program, so they may turn down their offers and you may end up with funding. From what I've heard with my professors, there's a lot of movement with funding and waitlists in the week before April 15 (and especially that day!!) so don't count yourself out yet.

Awesome, thanks! I thought something like that might be up, but I didn't want to attend the visiting day because I've already been out there. Guess I'll hold on for now.

Been lurking on this thread for a while, but now that it's down to the wire I have two questions-

1) Anyone have a spot at Rutgers with an interest in Roman history that they're planning on giving up? Been on the wait list and wondering if I should just go ahead and accept an offer elsewhere.

2) in at UWisconsin, but no guaranteed funding- does anyone have experience with them? Is funding possible?

Thanks!!
