Congrats!!

I too applied to Texas State, guess I should (hopefully) be hearing from them soon as well.

Thanks! Good luck. Your initials aren't M.F., are they? My email and attached letter were both addressed to me but the thing I'm supposed to sign if I accept their offer of admission had someone else's name below the signature line. This prompted a panicked phone call to the program director and a very apologetic email reply and call back from him to let me know that their offer to me stands, they just forgot to change the form to my name.

Just got my first acceptance! I'm so happy. (And relieved!) Texas State, four years' guaranteed funding, plus additional summer teaching/research opportunities. Still waiting to hear back from five programs.

New user chiming in to say I also got a preview weekend call from Sam Houston, so I'll see you there, Mopar18! I got the call literally a half hour after getting rejected from Albany, so today has been quite the emotional roller coaster. Had a short Skype call with UCF a week ago. Now I'm trying to do something other than sit here trying to somehow predict my chances of admission...
