@balaenopter_a Thanks! I might just ask for that deadline.

My applications website updated with an acceptance module. I don't get any word on funding for two more weeks, while my other top school hasn't posted admissions. Would it hurt my funding decision if I didn't accept? The message below appeared with it: "Let us know if you accept your admission. By accepting your admission here, you are under no obligation, financially or otherwise. If your decision changes, please contact your program directly." I've already told them of my interest and have contacted my interim advisor, and they have not specifically asked for a decision or given a deadline. Note: this school has rolling admission, except for assistantship position applicants

@AnxiousNerd Woooooooooo!

@Dan_Xu That's too bad

I just have one admissions decision, and one funding decision left to hear from. I'm surprised how less stressed I am now that some news has come out.

@AnxiousKitty @ProudCatMom Congrats on SUNY Buffalo! I'm just waiting on funding for UW-Milwaukee so this is really helpful. I was just about to email my interim advisor there to get a timeline but at least now I know!

Okay so the IRB just pushed my research back weeks. Gall Darn It.

@sriracha18 I'm so sorry about your grandpa and Madison. You're right, this is just the beginning of your journey, and whatever comes next you'll be ready for. Sending positive vibes your way!

@E-P Northwestern's my last one, and I'm waiting on funding for Milwaukee.

Comms decisions for Madison came out this week, and Northwestern come out this week or next week.

@E-P Same here with Madison, I already expected this one. Congrats on MSU!

@GreenEyedTrombonist & @swazibound Congrats on the Rhetoric Track at Madison! That's so exciting!

February is next week. February is next week.

Congrats and also sympathize. Athletic-induced asthma takes any military time off the table. I start my five-a-week conditioning training on Monday so hopefully that'll take the edge off while waiting.

@TakeruK Thanks!

sloths. they're so creepy and slow.

@GreenEyedTrombonist yeah I'm seriously considering it

My mom just asked me if I wanted to live with her and my dad if I get into a closer school and commute in. Am I considering it since I'm broke and love my parents and free food? Yes.

@TakeruK 1/28 is when I need to submit it to the department.
