I just got my last applicant decision (another rejection). All in all, two acceptances and five rejections. My choice between the two schools is pretty easy, since one is fully funded and one is not. I was waiting until all of the cards were on the table to make my decision, and now I think the path is pretty clear.
This whole process has been nerve wracking! I have had to fight for my self esteem, since I can be a little sensitive to rejection. However, I think this process taught me a lot about myself- and probably a lot about a future working in academia, too.
Now I have slightly less than five months to pack my stuff and move across the country for a new adventure. I wish all of you amazing luck and success in the rest of your application decisions, choices, and futures!

Thanks for the info! As much as I hope they haven't sent out all results, one admit & two waitlist on the results make me less believe they send results in batches. But you're completely right, we won't know until we get an official notification from the dept.
p.s. is it just me or others find this forum starts to have annoying pump-up ads randomly?

Has anyone heard from Pittsburgh? I feel like they've usually released something by now, but I haven't seen anything.
I'm also just waiting around for the rejection updates from Ohio State and Cornell that I know are coming. I wish they would send them already so we could just move forward with some kind of closure /: It's been another week of radio silence and an empty inbox

I got an unofficial acceptance to FSU today, full funding as well.
I was quite stunned because I kept getting rejection after rejection (6 to be exact). I was starting to lose hope in this application season. I am happy though since this is the first of three acceptances to offer funding (waitlisted on one and haven't said on another).
3A: FSU, UF, UTDallas
6D: UGA, ASU, USF, TAMU, UO, and UWMadison
5P: UNC, UA, UCincin, MSU, UConn

I see many people in here being accepted to many incredible schools and I’m so happy about that. But, I want to say that if there’s anyone in this chat who hasn’t gotten an offer yet, please don’t lose hope. I’ve gotten one offer, but I’ve also gotten many, many rejections. Six in fact. To those who have one or no offers, you’re not alone. I just wanted to say that because people might feel less inclined to speak in this chat if they aren’t getting good news.
