PhD1Day

Was accepted off the waitlist from University of Northern Colorado! Will be accepting the offer! Can't believe this is real life!

Today is THEE day! Good luck to all on waitlist~ sending many prayers and positive vibes your way

From what I understand, there is a timed deadline (ie. 4pm) to let universities know your decision. I've heard of many people being offered a spot off waitlists 4/15 during the evening as well as the next day or so!

I broke down and emailed my PI (waitlist) yesterday and she warmly responded back saying I am the next to be offered a spot with a few outstanding initial offers still out there. My fingers are crossed so tight. I'm a 31 year old single mom and I don't think I can take another cycle of this ? these next 2.5 weeks are going to do me in, I can feel it!
Good luck everyone!!

HaHa, I must be the oldest one here. I will be turning 42 and I just got an admission offer today from my top choice. I had happy tears this morning as this is my second cycle trying and it has been my dream since my undergraduate. 
The matter of age could not stop me pursuing my life passion. Because of my age, I have more life experiences (both personal and professional) and I have a huge support from my spouse and two kids who are pretty independent now. I know some people may think I am crazy going into doctoral program in my 40s, but I feel very grateful that I get to do what I really want to do even at this later life. My goal is to graduate before 50.
