    I realized this morning that I have the GC Survey page for my field open in two windows on my phone. Guess I just want to be extra sure of what programs are notifying. I also check my email all waking hours even if it makes no sense that an east coast school would notify at, say, 9pm. I once got an email from Columbia staff at 1am EST ... so... Come on schools! I noticed that last round. I was notified during normal business hours, between 9-11am Pacific.

    For one program I applied to, my writing sample got lost in the mail ... twice. Even with delivery notification, tracking, and (the 2nd time around) confirmation by the Dept that the address I was using was correct! I had to send in a PDF copy. Doh.

    UCLA Admits!!! Tell me about yourselves! POIs? Field of study? I know the whole faculty at UCLA. It's my alma mater. I couldn't be more thrilled for you both! UCLA is an amazing school and the AH Dept. is equally amazing. And the Arts and YRL Libraries.... You will spend hours there just for the fun of it! I really hope you use the forums! Congratulations!!!!!!

    Spouses of Canadian citizens do get priority and they can come to Canada with their Canadian spouse but the Canadian citizen has a couple options to get the spouse to be at a point of being able to legally work. From my understanding, the Canadian can sponsor the spouse or (or and, still figuring it out) the non-Canadian can get a work visa and in both situations eventually get a PR card.

    I'm applying to U of Toronto and thank God the GRE scores aren't required. My POI is literally a perfect match for my interests so I'm REALLY excited about the results. Whoo hoo! What isn't fun, though, is figuring out immigration if I get in and we decide to go there (my husband is American and I'm dual).

    I'm starting to get really sad that I haven't heard anything yet, and won't since it's 7pm EST. Come on, Thursday, have something good for me in the mail or my phone or my inbox! I'm starting to forget what unread mail looks like.

    So many Princeton rejections! If any of those are you, chin up! I'm sure you'll hear from other programs soon!

    Amen! On the one hand, it's daunting realizing that we might give all this up (I too have a nice paying job, home, friends/family) and it's even more daunting because it's not just me... it's my husband, too. We'd move together (obviously). Ah! But, I think we're ok with it, and in a way it's exciting because grad school presents itself as not only the fulfillment of my dream but also a great opportunity for us to get out of our current city, which we both don't really care for apart from our friends/family/home/job. I get nervous sometimes, but then I remember that the rewards (if I get in) will be great.

    I've unsubscribed from all my recipe emails, newsletters, etc. because I get my hopes up everytime I'm notified of a new email. :/

      I have been frantically unsubscribing from all of my newsletters as well. It is comforting to know that in this I am not alone. :-)

    I'm in the same boat as you re: GRE scores! Silly test if you ask me. :/

    Yes!! It's amazing!

    Congratulations!!!!! Waitlisted is still great news, because there's always the chance Penn isn't each admit's top choice, etc. So happy for you!

    You and I are in the exact same boat except 3 of my schools have sent acceptances or interview requests... UVA is one of my top picks! Ahh!! Congrats UVA admit! Care to share any details? Field of study?
