OptimiscallyAnxious

Statement of Intent and housing application turned in. Now I'm just getting ready for my summer research internship abroad. Everything seems to have fallen into place and I am extremely grateful and fortunate to have been surrounded by such a wonderful support system during this very stressful time. I will never be able to adequately express my appreciation to all those people who have helped me during this daunting process. 

After receiving my admittance to one of my top choices, I probably slept infinitely better than I ever had in the past four to five months... I can breathe again... 

Admission at last!!!!! To my top choice!!!!!!

Done! Thankful that I won't have to do this over again. 3 years of prep is enough. Gonna go burn some GRE books!!

Just sent thank you emails to the professors from my community college. Honestly, when I returned to school at almost 30 I wasn't thinking of even transferring to a four year institution. Thanks to their support and encouragementI transferred to a great undergraduate university. And next year I'll be attending graduate school.  I have been truly blessed to be surrounded by such amazingly supportive people.

I had begun to psych myself up to reapply next year and then I end up receiving 2 acceptances in one day. I still can't believe it. I feel so relieved and grateful. Best of luck for everyone still waiting for responses.

I wish I know how many weeks exactly is "a few weeks" when it comes to emails from from adcoms. It has been almost three weeks since they said they will have their decision in the next few weeks and realizing that four, six, or eight weeks could still be considered a few weeks for some is just...

My first time applying to PhD programs directly from undergrad and I've managed to interview at 3 programs. But I was also rejected from 2 programs without even interviewing. I totally bombed my first interview. However, I feel like I did progressively better with each subsequent interview. I just hope that I get good news from at least one program soon. I do not want to go through this process again, but if I must I think I'll be better prepared.
