I've been told so many times "DON'T GO TO GRAD SCHOOL UNLESS YOU GET PAID FOR IT" that I feel compelled to pass that advice along. One thing to consider, obviously, is whether you will make enough money in the career for which this degree prepares you to make debt worth it - and humanities jobs don't seem to be very common or well-paying these days, in general.

@Edost, yeah, got the email from University of Pennsylvania. I wouldn't worry about it ... I feel like I could spend the next four to six weeks microanalyzing everything about the admissions process and at the end I would probably only have a nervous breakdown to show for it. At any rate it's not an acceptance which is what we all REALLY want

@Nick, have you been to UW before? What's the campus like?

Penn applicants, did any of you get this email today?



I have no idea if it means anything, except hopefully they haven't rejected me yet.
