Congrats for being high on the list at Purdue. I hope that the waitlist gets a lot of movement, since I'm hoping to come off it (my AOI is not continental, though)

thanks man

I got an email from the Purdue philosophy department to submit my official transcripts - did anybody else get this? I'm hoping that it's an auspicious sign that an acceptance is likely forthcoming.
Update: the graduate committee says they've requested transcripts from everyone who "has a middling chance of being admitted."  Wtf does that mean?  In either case, be on the lookout for that email..

Bahahaha I got this too. "Middling chance." Great.

Hmm, does the fact that I have not yet received the Chicago eMail rejection blast good news? I know I'm likely being overly optimistic here...

It seems more and more unlikely that I will receive acceptances from a number of continental schools I'm hoping for. But I am on the waitlist at NW, so if the continental-ly person who got in there could just turn it down, that'd be greaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat.
