What did you put in the email and who did you send it to? I emailed Jill Quirks on Monday morning and I said that I'm still very interested in the program and asked about my application status. She replied Monday afternoon with "We are still in the process of making application decisions and will be through April. I’m sorry I can’t be more specific as I know this is a stressful time for everyone." So I don't even know if I'm on the wait list or not. Purdue is my number one choice and if I don't get in, I'll probably take a year off. Should I email the DGS? Should I email Jill Quirk back and ask if I can add further development to my application because since I submitted the application, I've taught multiple workshops, attended an international convention, and received an award for an honor society. I don't know what to do :(((

Hi guys, I want to study Victorian lit, specifically the gothic. I applied to University of Louisville and Purdue for MA. U of L was my fall back. I got in and I should be good with funding, and they have research opportunities and good mentorships with two Victorian professors. I originally was not going to go to U of L but I'm having second guesses. Purdue was my number one choice but I haven't heard back from them. Do y'all know anyone else who has heard back? Should I still consider Purdue? I'm not in love with U of L but I was very impressed. I didn't do as much research as I should have when looking at programs, and I feel like I have no idea what I'm doing.
