I haven't received anything either. What I figure is that they are in the midst of dealing with graduation and are going to wait until afterwords to start focusing on incoming students. I know a couple of people who coordinate colleges and such events. From my experience through talking with them, this is exactly what they do.

Texas A&M

Chem here as well!!!

If you've never been to Texas, I think that you will find that it is GREAT!

Anyone going to Rice 2009?

Just got a response from Univ of Houston. Anyone know anything about RICE?

mmhmmmmm

I'm a transplant. I live in Houston and have been working a couple of different jobs after getting out of the Navy. My wife DOES NOT want to leave the Houston area and I REALLY want to go back to grad school so that was the compromise. College station is kind of like an island in the middle of the woods. Its about an hour and 15 minutes NW of Houston (my house anyway), hour and a half SW of Waco and really revolves around the college. I drive through it ALL the time for my current job. Right now it is surrounded by construction and speed traps. The university is really top notch and no matter which offers I get, it will be difficult to decide (Rice, TAMU, UH). TAMU alumn almost have a secret society more so than probably just about any other university in the state of Texas (really tight knit). The cost of living is Texas is relatively low unless you live in a down town area (Dallas, Houston, Austin).

Chemistry, but i haven't made my decision yet...

... I'd be willing to give up a $150K a year job and and take my wife and I back into a poverty we haven't experianced since being an undergrad.

totalsynthesis I have not heard anything yet. Let me know if you hear anything. Where else are you applying to? Feel free to message me or email me.

I got an acceptance letter from Texas A&M with funding. Still waiting on the others

Where are you applying to? I am applying to Rice, Univ of Houston, and Texas A&M.

You can use the metro for bus based service around MOST of Houston. The only train is an above ground linear line that only services downtown to around the medical center.

Anyone else try to gain admissions to chemistry programs for Fall 2009?
