You not getting in only means that you weren't among the top eight applicants

Where did you find this info, if you don't mind me asking? I'm curious about number of applications and acceptances at different schools, but I can't find anything like other people seem to be able to do.

Visit Day is March 9th. Found on the department website. Confirmed by calling the department on Friday. When I called, she also mentioned that we would get an email today or tomorrow with more information on the visit day and funding (though funding would not be confirmed until the March 9th visit day)

Did she elaborate on funding not being confirmed? The website says they guarantee 5 years of funding to everyone, but people keep referring to their financial situation with skepticism. Do you know what that's about?

Anyone know anything about the UW-Madison acceptance process? I got an automated email saying that I had been recommended for the PhD program, but that the admissions office needs official transcripts. I'm cautiously optimistic about it, but I need some assurance before I lose my mind.
