Update: Just called West Florida and they said letters are being sent out next week! 

That was me! I'm not a current student there, and I was super surprised they looked through the my application already. At the time I was accepted only one of my letter writers had submitted their reference, but I'm not complaining! 

Hi @Alynnh - I finished my MA at gsu Anthropology and will be teaching intro to bioanth in the spring. Feel free to pm me with any questions. 

@phyanth  Thanks! I do go to MSU, I'm from Michigan as well!

Hi guys!
I'm applying this application round too! I'm in my senior year right now, and spent most my summer looking into schools, preparing my application materials, and studying for the GRE.
I'm interested in bioarchaeology, and specifically the bioarchaeology of childhood. I'm most interested in things like cultural contact and migration and how they affected biological aspects of childhood. I have about ten schools on my list, and my next steps are to start reaching out to them. I've got two field schools underneath my belt and an independent research project. I volunteer in three labs and also occasionally help with our campus archaeology program. I have a good GPA and should really strong letters of rec. I didn't do awesome on the GRE, but my advisor said that other aspects of my application will hopefully compensate for that, but its still nerve racking because I really don't have the time to study all over again, and I still haven't decided if I want to retake it or not.
I'm still putting the finishing touches on my SoPs, but if anyone wouldn't mind looking at my CV that would much appreciated!
