  1. I'm not sure if anyone still looks at this thread, but anyone else headed to Boston University in the fall?! Would love to connect!
  2. Thank you so much for your detailed and thoughtful response, @Sandmaster! This is really helpful and puts me much more at ease about communication with the department, funding, and timing. I might reach out with more questions as things unfold. Grateful to have a resource in C&I. @SPEDucator Congrats again! I haven't been assigned an advisor yet, or at least have not been notified of one, but from @Sandmaster's reply it sounds like that might happen in the next couple of weeks. I'll try reaching out to the Grad Studies Coordinator in the meantime. Thanks all!
  3. Hello @eternalreturn and @SPEDucator - This is my first post in the forums. Congrats on UMN admittance! I was accepted to UMN for PhD as well -- Dept of Curriculum & Instruction, Culture and Teaching (CaT)! I'm curious if you've had any direct contact from the department and/or received any indication of funding. I received the admissions letter from the Graduate Admissions Office before Christmas; in Jan reached out to a professor in CaT to express my excitement, as well as inquire about funding and the enrollment decision deadline. Haven't heard back yet, which is understandable -- I assume folks are still coming back from break. I don't want to leave UMN hanging, but funding and fit are obviously big factors in my decision and I've not yet heard back from all my schools and no word on funding from Minnesota. @Sandmaster Can you share "what happens next," in your experience? Also, will it speak poorly of me that I haven't established contact with program faculty at this point? I could reach out to a different professor with the same questions, but I am hesitant to appear overeager if the department has its own process for communicating with accepted students in due time. Thank you for any thoughts! And congrats again to all who have received acceptances!
